Family & Friends of Nicholas Germain

The Nicholas Germain Memorial Welding Scholarship was established by family and friends of Nick Germain, who lost his life in a fatal car accident in 2011. A graduate of Davenport West High School and a student at Scott Community College (SCC), Nick is remembered as a passionate, creative, and self-guided individual whose competitive nature drove him to excel in everything he took interest in. Early in his high school education Nick chose welding as his career path. He proved to be an exceptional student and truly enjoyed learning as much as he could about welding. Shortly after graduation from West High School, Nick found employment at Seaberg Industries in Rock Island, Illinois. Even as a full time employee, Nick continued his welding education through SCC. The scholarship will be awarded to like-minded students who display genuine determination and ability in the welding field.
