The Campbell Family generously created this opportunity for a student accepted into an Engineering Program that graduated from Aberdeen or Montesano and is currently in their junior or senior year of college. Students must be attending University of Washington, Washington State University or University of Idaho. This award is a one-time $10,000 award.
Pauline graduated from WSU with a teaching degree followed by a reading specialist certification in California. John earned a BS and MS in chemical engineering from the University of Idaho. After working a few years in California, they moved to Aberdeen in 1974 when John took a job as a process engineer at the pulp mill in Cosmopolis. Pauline took a job teaching first grade at Beacon school in Montesano.
Together, they raised two children who graduated from Aberdeen High School. After retiring, they decided to stay in Grays Harbor because they think it is a beautiful place to live.
