Hamlin Lions award scholarships to local high school seniors

For the past several years, the Hamlin Lions Club has awarded a scholarship to a graduating senior in the Brockport, Hilton and Kendall School Districts.

The selected individual of each school district must reside in the Town of Hamlin, be involved in community service, have written an essay outlining career orientation, scholastic achievements, and personal involvement/contributions related to community or other non-school organizations and have submitted three letters of recommendation.

For this 2016 school-year, Danielle Falkenstein was selected to represent Brockport High School. Danielle plans on attending the University of Rochester in the fall.  She hopes to become a doctor and would like to work in immunology.

Sarah Pearson was selected to represent Kendall High School. Sarah plans on attending SUNY Fredonia this fall to major in music.

There were no applications received from Hilton High School this year.

Both young ladies received a check in the amount of $500 at the club’s last dinner meeting that took place at the Hamlin Station in Hamlin.  The club wishes both students much success in their future endeavors.
