2021 Inaugural Grunerud-Egan Scholarship Recipients Announced

August 3, 2021

This year, in partnership with Egan Company Project Manager Dane Grunerud, Egan was able to award two deserving students with the first Grunerud-Egan Scholarship for the Fall of 2021. Founded upon generations of encouragement and belief in higher education, this scholarship aims to help others achieve career aspirations within the construction, engineering, trades, or related fields.

Many qualified applicants—all children or grandchildren of Egan employees—applied. Recipients were selected based on financial need, involvement in the community or extracurricular activities, academic achievement, and essay/video response. 

Congratulations to our award recipients Lucas Aberwald and Brooke Edlund! Aberwald is a freshman attending the University of Minnesota Duluth to study Mechanical Engineering and is the son of Electrician Dan Aberwald. Edlund will be attending Ridgewater College to complete its electrical program and is the step-daughter of Senior Project Manager Randy Kalthoff.

We’re honored to aid in supporting the future of our industry! Read further about the Grunerud-Egan Scholarship.
