The Woodridge Rotary awarded Three $2000 scholarships to local High School Students

The Woodridge Rotary awarded hree $2000 scholarships to local High School Students. Our Scholarship winners were joined by their parents and club members for a celebrationdinner which was hosted by Shanahan’s in Woodridge.

“Rotary Service Above Self” recipients were Kristen Bowers from Downers Grove North High School and Winona Vanorny from Downers Grove South High School.

Both Kristen and Winona have demonstrated the core principles of unselfish volunteerism and community leadership. “Service Above Self” is the principal motto of Rotary International.

Our music scholarship was awarded to Carly Bleau from Downers Grove South High School.

Carly provided a significant piece of work in music for consideration. She performed a vocal solo and we were thoroughly entertained. The selection was by songwriter Adele, "Make You Feel My Love".On behalf of the Woodridge Rotary Club, we wish these young ladies’ endless success and joy as they step into the next chapter of their life. The Scholarships were made possible by the work we do through our fundraisers, especially the upcoming Back to School Duck Dash, August 15th at Cypress Cove in Woodridge.
