The 19th Annual JLT Memorial Scholarship Fundraiser is scheduled for Saturday, October 8th at The FeedLot in Richland Springs, Texas. The JLT Memorial Scholarship Fundraiser is an annual event held in memory of Joseph Lee Tharp and raises money to provide scholarships to graduating seniors at Richland Springs, San Saba, Cherokee and Zephyr High Schools. The scholarship funds also help finance continuing education for former scholarship recipients who are continuing their education. In 2022, the family was able to award $22,500 in scholarships to deserving seniors and previous recipients still in school.
