The Rotary Club of Sandpoint recently awarded 15 scholarships to area seniors for academic excellence and community service.
In the spirit of Rotary’s motto of "Service Above Self," the local service club selected students who already have this spirit kindled in their hearts.
For over 100 years, Rotarians have held each other to the Four-Way Test: Of the things we think say or do: Is it the truth? Is it fair to all concerned? Will it build goodwill and better friendships? Will it be beneficial to all concerned? This year’s scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors who not only achieved academically but also have a heart for service, and who the club believes will continue to give back locally and globally in a meaningful way, placing service above self as a way of life.
