ELMORE CITY, OK — Old Glory Bank is proud to announce the recipient of its inaugural Old Glory Bank Merit Scholarship. The one-time, $10,000 award recognizes a rising college freshman who has demonstrated the outstanding values the Bank holds in the highest regard – patriotism, dedication to excellence, integrity, discipline, determination, and service.
After a competitive selection process focused on academic achievement, leadership, volunteer contributions, and a standout essay, Old Glory Bank has selected Taryn McCaa as the 2025 scholarship recipient.
Taryn will receive the $10,000 scholarship to use toward tuition, fees, textbooks, or other approved educational expenses. She plans to attend Oklahoma State University to pursue a major in Animal Science with a pre-veterinary focus, ultimately seeking a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree with a specialization in equine medicine.
