The organization will then hold its 68th annual awards banquet May 28 at the Westin Alexandria Old Town. This year’s banquet will mark the debut of a scholarship supporting students pursuing vocational or technical education after high school.
Inspired by the late Alexandria philanthropist Marion Moon, the $2,500 scholarship will go to a high school senior in the City of Alexandria seeking trade-related skills or technical certifications.
