AUGUSTA - Anna Carpenter of Camden was recently awarded the 2024 Legislative Memorial Scholarship for Knox County. The scholarship annually recognizes one student from each county attending a Maine college or technical school and is awarded based on excellence, contributions to the community and more.
This is Anna's second time winning this award. Rep. Vicki Doudera, D-Camden, House Speaker Rachel Talbot Ross, D-Portland, and fellow lawmakers also welcomed Anna and her parents to the State House in 2023 when she received the Legislative Memorial Scholarship for Knox County for the first time.
"I'm pleased to again recognize Anna for being awarded the Legislative Memorial Scholarship," said Doudera. "Her hard work demonstrates what students in Knox County can achieve. She's a great role model and makes me proud of everyone pursuing higher education and their goals.
Doudera is serving her third term in the Maine House and is a member of the Environment and Natural Resources Committee and the Marine Resources Committee. She represents the towns of Camden and Rockport and co-chairs the Legislature's Gun Safety Caucus.
