Student success

The Rotary Club of Durham held its annual Student Awards Banquet on Tuesday, April 29, at the Durham Memorial Hall. The Club awarded 10 Durham High School Class of 2025 graduating Seniors with a $2,000 scholarship each. These students not only excelled academically during their high school tenures, but many also played multiple sports, and each one exemplified the Rotary motto of “service above self” by serving their community at the same time. From left to right are Kendal Beynon, Claire Birchard, Seanna Cunningham, Coby Gausemel, Miguel Heras, Kevin Ocana, Parker Thomas, Janelle Thorpe, Ryley Vanella and Zach Zwinger.
