For over 60 years, the Mattapoisett Women’s Club has been striving to help young people in their educational pursuits. This year the Club is happy to award five scholarships to students from Old Rochester Regional High School.
The selected students are: Joshua Bardwell, son of Lori and Jerry Bardwell, who will attend Northeastern University to study International Affairs; Michael Bliss, son of Susan and Thomas Bliss, who will attend New School of Jazz and Contemporary Music to develop his musical talent; Katelyn Cummings, daughter of Suzanne Seguin and Michael Cummings, who will attend Salve Regina University to pursue a degree in nursing; Alexander Milde, son of Elizabeth and Paul Milde, who will be attending Cornell University to prepare for a career in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, and Fred Murolo, son of Valerie and Frederick Murolo, who plans to major in Biomedical Engineering at the University of California Davis.
The Women’s Club especially thanks the community for its support of “Taste of the Town” (during Harbor Days), and its Garden Tour, which raise funds for the scholarships.
