John R. Burt Scholarship

Three people are standing outside on pavement in front of several large, red fire trucks. Two firefighters wear full gear, including helmets and bunker coats with reflective stripes. One firefighter is pointing with their right hand. The back of the second firefighter’s coat reads "VINCENNES TWP" and "STARK" on the lower back. The third person is a young man wearing a black baseball cap and a black jacket, facing the firefighters. Branches of bare deciduous trees are visible in the background against a blue sky.
