Lewes-Rehoboth Rotary Club recently presented its Moore-Eschenbach-Gallery Scholarships with funds raised by club projects during the 2016-17 club year.
The scholarships, for Margaret H. Rollins School of Nursing students and students at local high schools, are generated primarily by proceeds from the club’s annual Flags For Heroes Memorial Day presentation at Cape Henlopen High School; publication of the Great Walks and Trails In Sussex County guidebook; and chicken barbecues held at the Rotary Pavilion in Otis Smith Park in Lewes.
The scholarships are named in honor of deceased Rotarians Ed Moore, Sam Eschenbach and Dr. William Gallery.
