Grants will further their studies in the Scottish Arts
Every year the House of Gordon USA awards scholarships through the Charles O. Gordon Memorial Scholarship. These help the young, and even the young at heart to further their studies in the Scottish Arts, including but not limited to: piping, highland drumming, highland dance, fiddle, heavy athletics, and Gaelic language study. The 2024 recipients include Brynn Brown, 14 year old dancer; Chase Leadmon, 11 year old dancer; Katherine Pritchard, 10 year old drummer; Elizabeth Wendland, 14 year old dancer; the Queen City Juvenile Pipes & Drums; Alyse Duppenthaler, 13 year old dancer; Hannah Brugger, 18 year old dancer; and Audrey Davies, 14 year old dancer. In addition, the winner of the Grade 4 Piper of the Day Award at 2023 Grandfather Mountain Highland Games was Luke DeGhetto.
