SPRINGFIELD, Vt. — The Springfield Elks Lodge 1560 tries annually to do its part in the community by rewarding area high school graduates with scholarships. This year was no different, as six graduates received $500 scholarships.
Recipients included three from Springfield High School and three from Green Mountain Union High School. They were as follows: Sofia Gulick of SHS, daughter of Kathleen and Barry Gulick, will be attending Simmons College; Owen Kelley of SHS, son of Scott and Angella Kelley, will be attending Northern Vermont University; and Samantha Mirra of SHS, daughter of Elizabeth and Joseph Mirra, will be attending Springfield College; and from GMUHS, Sadie Wood, daughter of Michael and Julie-Lynn Wood, will be attending Duke University; Ben Haseltine, son of Mary and Matthew Haseltine, will be attending The Hartt School; and Alexia White, daughter of Venessa White, will be attending James Madison University.
Chairman of the Springfield Elks scholarship committee is Jackie Driscoll-Page and committee members are PER Vicki, treasurer Karen Whitney and member Gay Mobus. The committee works very hard to narrow all the applications down to three great students, they said.
