Honeoye Central School District graduate Kristen Boorman was the recipient of the 2018 Lake Country Garden Club Scholarship.  A true Honeoye native, Kristen has lived in Honeoye her entire life. “ I was brought home from the hospital to the home I lived in for most of my life,” Kristen shared, smiling.  Kristen’s family includes sisters Heather –soon to be sophomore at Honeoye Central – and Parker – who enters Kindergarten this September. “My parents are always very supportive of our endeavors”, Kristen said of mom, Jacqui and dad, Brian.

During her high school years, Kristen settled down to academics, but also competed in several extra curricular activities.  To name a few: Mastermind, Youth to Youth, Volleyball, Track, and Cross Country.  She also visited Costa Rica on a school trip, and hosted a student from there when they visited the U.S.  Her main love, however, is dance.  Currently she studies jazz, hip-hop and lyrical (similar to ballet, but more relaxed) with local dance instructor Shanna Butler.

For summer and next school year Kristen is working at Once Upon A Child, a children’s clothing store at Southtowne specializing in gently used items.  Over the summer she will help in opening a new location across from Eastview.  “Working full-time allows me to put away more money for school, and I will still be able to work when I leave for college”.

State University of New York at Geneseo is Kristen’s destination at the end of August, and she is very happy to have been accepted there to study psychology.  Undecided as to whether she will branch out into the field of Speech, or Behavioral Psychology, Kristen is excited about this new chapter in her life.  Learning to be fluent in sign language is another goal for this young lady who will put her scholarship money toward her tuition.  Kristen hopes to be able to fund her college education without loans.

We wish her well in all of her endeavors.
