The Beta Epsilon Chapter of Tri Kappa announces the recipients of its 2026 scholarship awards.

Throughout the year, Beta Epsilon members work diligently to raise funds for philanthropic projects that support the local community, with one of the chapter’s largest fundraising events being its annual BINGO fundraiser.

• Health Services Scholarship – Ansley Applegate Noblesville High School, $1,000
• Future Educator Scholarships – Addison Thompson, Noblesville High School, and Jackson Cantlon, Hamilton Heights High School, $1,000 cach
• Arion Band Scholarship – Nayelli Gelfo
• Arion Choir Scholarship – Matthew Hunt
• Arion Orchestra Scholarship – Hailey Gibbons

Arion Winners receive $100, a medal, a lapel pin and their names are entered on a plaque at Noblesville High School.

Beta Epsilon members are honored to support these deserving students as they continue their educational journeys and pursue their future goals. The chapter also thanks the community for its continued support of Tri Kappa fundraising events, which make these scholarships possible each year.

Tri Kappa remains committed to promoting charity, culture, and education throughout Hamilton County and looks forward to continuing its tradition of investing in the next generation of community leaders.
