Cookie Salak Memorial Scholarhship

​

   Established in 2015 by the All Saints Parish Choir (formerly St. Fidelis/St. Conrad Church Choir), the annual Cookie Salak Memorial Scholarship honors graduating high school seniors who are active in the music programs in their church, school, and community.  Cookie’s passion for music was undeniable, and her relentless efforts to help others pursue their musical dreams helped to shape countless lives and brought high-quality music to the Butler Area for over sixty years. The creation of this memorial fund is an attempt to memorialize Cookie’s musical legacy and recognize those graduating students who will continue to assist in the development and enhancement of music in our church and community.
