SCRA prepares to award scholarships

The members of the Spencerport Central Retirees' Association (SCRA) continue their support of young people by volunteering in Spencerport's schools and by awarding scholarships to graduating seniors. Each year for the past three years, SCRA members have acted as judges in the Terry A. Taylor Science Fair. This year they also helped at the Canal View Science Fair.

In June 2003, the first SCRA Scholarship for $800 was awarded to graduating senior Andrew Cottrell. The next year, Jennifer White received a $1,000 scholarship. This year SCRA will be awarding three scholarships of $1,500 each. The winners are chosen based on GPA, citizenship and need.

SCRA was established in October 2001 to promote the interests of retirees of the Spencerport Central School District. Membership is open to all retirees of the SCSD and there are 185 retirees in SCRA.
