SeaArk Boats and SeaArk Marine of Monticello recently created a scholarship to assist the welding program at the UAM College of Technology-McGehee. The scholarship honors the late Zach McClendon, Sr., and the late Norris Judkins, the founders of MonArk Boat Company, which later became SeaArk Marine and SeaArk Boats. The scholarship will be presented to one welding student per year for the next three years. The scholarship was announced last week during a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the founding of MonArk Boat Company.
