Shell Rotella global brand manager, Mark Reed (right) presents a check for $10,000 for the OOIDA Mary Johnston Scholarship Fund during the Mid-America Trucking Show. Accepting the check on behalf of OOIDA are (l-r): foundation research assistance, Denise Volmer; executive vice-president, Todd Spencer; and board member and scholarship committee chairman, Bill Rode. The scholarship benefits children, grandchildren and legal dependents of OOIDA members. The selection process challenges applicants to compose an essay about how a trucker has influenced their lives; the way their educational goals reflect their personality and suggestions on ways OOIDA can improve the public image of trucking.
