The Brookville American Legion Post 77 is pleased to announce that they have awarded $9,500 in scholarships to FCHS graduates of 2020.
A chicken drive thru and cash raffle were conducted by chairmen, Ray Amrhein, Bill Higgs and Mike Biltz with the help of over 30 volunteers to raise this money for our local students. This project was a combined effort of the members of the legion, the ladies auxiliary and the SAL. The chicken drive thru was held in lieu of the traditional chicken dinner/pork chop dinner due to the national pandemic. Approximately 14 cases of chicken and 300 pork chops were served. It is through the generous support and encouragement of our community that made this effort possible and the American Legion greatly appreciates their support.
Commander Richard Bodnar, Ladies Auxiliary President Angie Nobbe and SAL Commander Craig Hertel presented checks valued at $500 each to Molly Goins, Taylor McCreary, Sara Weaver, Kyle Siebert, Ashlan Hill, Meadow Nobbe, Makaylee Woods, Brylee Pace, Emalee Dehner, Jalynn Rogers, Jaime Stortz, Kayla Ertel, Peter Volk, Austin Volk, Rachel Bischoff, Emily Wendel, Maggie Brack, Samantha Ebrens and Audrey Reister.
