The John F. Condon Scholarship is named after a former Hanscom FCU board member who made a significant contribution to the credit union’s success during his 26 years of volunteerism. The award is based on academic record, extracurricular activities, and an essay.
The year’s member recipients are Julia Taylor of Woburn, MA; Amanda Donahue of Danvers, MA; David Arango of Newton, MA; Nicholas Karalis of Arlington, MA; and Sarah Reidy of Brentwood, TN.
The top graduates of the Lowell High School and Bedford High School Air Force JROTC programs, Cadet Colonel Shaynon Peden of Lowell and Cadet Chief Master Sergeant Kathryn Brown of Bedford, each received scholarships.
“What a great group of students,” said Hanscom FCU’s Chairman of the Board Paul Marotta. “These folks are the future leaders of America.”
