Eleven-year-old Kaitlin Jencks of Weaverville could attend the world-famous Interlochen Center for the Arts in Michigan for six weeks this summer on a $3,600 scholarship -- the highest awarded this year -- if she can raise the rest of the tuition and expenses, another $4,848.
At her young age, Jencks has an extensive acting and performance background with groups such as Montford Park Players, Class Act Players, First Stage Youth Theatre, Asheville Contemporary Dance Theater/New Studio/BeBe Theater, Asheville Community Theatre, Asheville Symphony Children's Chorus and Celebration Singers.
Deadline to have the funds in by is May 1.
Any individual or organization interested in being a sponsor should contact Kaitlin's grandfather, Fred Flaxman, at 645-8580 or go to http://www.kaitlinjencks.com/ and click the donate button at the bottom of the page.
