2014 Vincent J. Dooley Awards

Emily Thurmond and Colin Humble Win Scholarships

Emily Thurmond of Darlington School and Colin Humble of George Walton High School were named as the recipients of the four year scholarships by Coach Dooley at the Awards ceremony on April 5.  Both recipients had very distinguished high school careers.  In particular it was noted that Emily had begun a program of raising money for musical instruments for mentally challenged students in a nearby school, and Colin had begun a Christmas program for the homeless that led to an ongoing program of groceries, meals twice a week, and a bicycle restoration project for the homeless.
