Alan Divine Scholarship Application
The Alan Divine Scholarship is awarded yearly to two deserving members (one male, one female) of the Hampton Oaks Swim Team (HOST). The scholarship is intended to be used towards the member's college expenses. The fund was created in loving memory of a great supporter of our team, Alan Divine. Alan's daughter, Madisen, was a 9-year member of HOST. Alan was always ready with a dynamic smile, words of encouragement and a helping hand. His poolside presence is greatly missed by the HOST organization. The Hampton Oaks Swim Team is excited to award a $500 scholarship to one male and one female swimmer each season. The scholarship is offered to rising seniors, new graduates and those currently in college. Potential winners need to meet a list of criteria and also be nominated by another swimmer or family from the team. Here is what we are looking for each nominee to display:
1. They must have a commitment to the team and our team goals.
2. They must have
participated in fundraising/spirit events.
3. They
must be a role model for their peers.
4. They
must be able to qualify to swim at finals, but they do not have to swim at
finals.
5. They
must demonstrate a spirit of cooperation, a positive attitude, and commitment
to our team.
Nomination forms can be found in our blue box at the pool or HERE on our website. Please place your nominations in the SCHOLARSHIP folder or return to a Board Member NO LATER THAN Wednesday, July 21st. Scholarship winners will be announced on Sunday at our End-Of-Season Banquet. If you have any questions, please contact our Sponsorship Representative, Anji Budzynski at justbudfam@gmail.com
