The annual fundraising luncheon for the Sarah Jones Memorial Scholarship Fund once again drew a strong crowd. Blanchard Area Seniors Incorporated held the annual scholarship luncheon on Feb. 22 at the Blanchard Community Center.

Jones, 18, was killed by an impaired driver while she was walking along Blanchard Cutoff Road in 2005.
