“We especially support those attaining the rank of Eagle Scout.” — Rotarian Donald Simpson Jr.

The Alexandria Rotary Club presented Eagle Scouts from the Colonial District with $1,500 scholarships at the organization’s June 6 meeting at Belle Haven Country Club.

“For the past 25 years we have worked with the Colonial District to raise funds to help support Boy Scouts,” said Rotarian Donald Simpson Jr. “We especially support those attaining the rank of Eagle Scout in our community and raise funds to give them college scholarships every year.”

Alexandria City Council Member Aliya Gaskins was on hand to congratulate those receiving scholarships.
