Welcome back to the Scholarship Fund Series on Stories from the River! In this third episode, Manny Rodrigues introduces the special guests, including for the first time ever, two brothers—Don and Joey Leimkuhler—both scholarship recipients and sons of Memory Maker Janet Leimkuhler.

They are joined by fellow scholarship winners Kate Nettles and Jordyn Collins, who share their excitement and anticipation for starting college, from dorm decorations and campus exploration to the thrill of making new friends and joining clubs. Each guest reflects on their high school experiences and offers tips for future students, encouraging balance between academics and personal passions.

Throughout the episode, the college-bound scholarship recipients open up about their chosen majors, from criminal justice to business administration, and discuss what excites them most about campus life, such as unlimited meal swipes, athletic programs, and forming lifelong friendships. They offer honest insights into study habits, favorite study snacks, and the importance of building community. The conversation is filled with humor, sincerity, and practical advice, underlining the value of living out the company’s purpose of "furnishing life’s best memories" not just at work, but in the next chapter of life as well.
