AOH Division 3 also recognized our high school scholars at our Hibernian Mass, as well as present them with their recognition (and checks!) at the Communion Breakfast that followed. We gave out ten scholarships to a group of very worth students who represent our community well by their academic and athletic accomplishments and acts of community service. They also demonstrated their knowledge of their heritage by taking a test on Irish and Irish American history and culture.
Thanks to Tom Diviny who was our guest speaker at the breakfast.
Thanks to John Edwards for planning and organizing the day’s events and to Chef Bill Boera for a great breakfast. And a huge thanks to our scholarship committee – as we have often said, you have the toughest job in the Division!
