NEW HARTFORD LIONS CLUB
2010 Scholarship Awards Program
March 16, 2010
The New Hartford Lions Club invites high
school seniors who live in the town and plan to attend
post-secondary training or education programs next year to apply
for a scholarship award. Seniors at Northwest Regional #7 High
School or Oliver Wolcott Technical High School can get the
application form from their school guidance counselors. Other
seniors can download it from the Lions Club web site:
www.newhartfordctlions.org
or pick it up at the two libraries in New Hartford. The Club
must receive students’ completed forms by May 1st to
be eligible for consideration. The form includes instructions.
Question may be directed to the school guidance counselors or
applicants can call the phone number on the form for more
information.
The New Hartford Lions Club awarded
scholarships of $1,000 each to six graduating high school
seniors in 2009. The success of the Club’s spring and early
summer fundraisers will determine the amount available for the
2010 scholarship awards. The Club’s Scholarship Committee will
notify those chosen to receive awards in early June and will
distribute the checks at a ceremony on Monday, June 28th.
In 2009, the New Hartford Lions Club also
donated funds to families in need, local food banks, and civic
projects. For example, the Club purchased a defibrillator for
New Hartford’s Brodie Park. New Hartford Lions contributed
additional monies to eyesight initiatives, a historic priority
of Lions Clubs International, the world’s largest service club
organization founded in 1917 with more than 1.3 million members
in about 200 countries around the globe.
Northwest Regional #7 School is home to a
student ‘Leos’ Club that gets youth involved with volunteering.
Leos contribute their time to a wide variety of projects
including local Lions Club fundraisers. The name Leo comes from
the concepts of ‘leadership’, ‘experience’ and ‘opportunities’
that students are exposed to through their community service
activities. Regional #7 High school Principal, Wayne Conner, is
a member of the New Hartford Lions.
