Neighbors,
Just thought I'd drop a 'reminder' about the scholarship. Of course, I think it's one of the most positive things the League can do for the neighborhood, and I hope you will help find a way to continue this valuable gift to our future leaders.
We currently are at about $135 and believe we brought in more dollars at the last meeting (Feb. 1st). However, we are still short of our $500. As outlined in the newsletter, we only grant the CAFCL Scholarship fund when it is fully funded. That process takes you. Therefore, since there is only 1 meeting (May) and the scholarship should be awarded at that meeting, it seems we need to take action as a neighborhood NOW if we are going to get this done this year. Otherwise, the funds will continue to grow and we'll distribute the scholarship to a worthy candidate in 2012.
A significant fact is that the application on the VBSchools website with a closing date of 3/31/11 and to ask Ms. Bateman at Arrowhead if she's willing to again use her committee as the selection committee.
If you want to donate to the fund, please email the league at cafcivicleague@yahoo.com or call Brenda Armitage @ 714-2772. We need to keep track of what is coming, so we know if we're going to make goal. We can not accept cash, but you can send money orders or checks made out to Carolanne Farm Civic League (or CAFCL), PO Box 62651, Virginia Beach, VA 23466.
