January 31 2006 Lucas was informed that he was the first recipient of the Domenic Troiano Guitar Scholarship. This new scholarship is awarded to a young guitarist that is planning to attend university to pursue guitar studies. There are two scholarships awarded annually, one male & one female.

The scholarship was set-up in the memory of Domenic Troiano and is very special to Lucas because all the submissions were jugged by some of the top guitarist in Canada.

Lucas will be going to Toronto on April 20th to receive his award and to perform in a Domenic Troiano benefit with some of Domenic's fiends. You can read more about Domenic & the scholarship at: www.domenictroiano.com .
