EAA Chapter 75    2019 Involvement 

The Ray Scholarship was a new program this year that through the persistent efforts of Keith Williams and his writing capabilities, we were able to secure an EAA administrator’s $10,000 scholarship that has been administered through our club treasury. This scholarship was a complete success story. Our scholar, Nick Hayes, the recipient, was able to becoming a private pilot with the help of this program. More to follow as Keith is working to organize a second scholarship for another deserving young person.
