Local students awarded scholarship

Kennedy High School senior Eugene Lee and Los Alamitos High School senior Andrea Rice received scholarships during the Rossmoor-Los Alamitos Republican Women Federated’s California Gold Scholarship rootin’ tootin’ fun-raiser at Old Ranch Country Club on June 10.
Orange County Assessor Claude Parrish joined President Nancy Hathcock in making the presentations.
“Our RLA club is serious about supporting the community and Making California Gold Again, but we also have fun in the process,” said President Nancy Hathcock.
During the western-themed event, members and guests heard from:
• Congressman Dana Rohrabacher
• State Senator Janet Nguyen
• Orange County GOP Chairman Fred Whitaker
“Everyone had a fantastic time and the club raised money for future scholarships or to send students to Youth American Foundation Conferences at the Reagan Ranch,” exclaimed VP Ways & Means Katherine Gerdis, adding that the next fun-raiser would be a paint and sip on August 19.
Republican women and men from northwest Orange County and greater Long Beach are invited to get involved to Make America and California Great Again.
