Rotary Scholars honored by club members

MAY 11, 2004 -- his week the Club honored twenty local high school students who had been selected to be Rotary Scholars.

The scholarship recipients came from a wide background of public, private and parochial schools. A short biographical summary about each of them was distributed to Club members at the meeting.

These students were leaders in academics, athletics, and other extra-curricular activities. Many already knew where they would attend college this Fall.

The honorees were, in most instances, accompanied to the Rotary meeting by their parents, school principals and guidance counselors.

Each honoree received a certificate and a scholarship check in the amount of $150 from the Club.
