Newcomers and Friends Award Scholarships

Groton Area Newcomers and Friends awards a scholarship annually for outstanding community service.  This year the Bic Penn Memorial Scholarship went to Joseph Orlando and Johanna Fischi (pictured), both 2015 graduates of GDRHS.

Joseph volunteered with the AbiliityPLUS ski program at Attitash Mountain and taught individuals with impairments how to ski and Johanna volunteered at the Special Olympics and taught swimming to a child who went from being afraid of the water to jumping in on his own before his lesson.
