Rotary Club: Anchorage Mid Town Project Title: Eagle Scout Scholarship 1. Describe the project. What was done, when and where did project activities take place? The Anchorage Midtown Rotary annually awards scholarships to Eagle Scouts from Alaska high schools, emphasizing the Rotary Four-Way Test and its alignment with Scout Law. This year, the club awarded three scholarships totaling $2,500: two recipients received $1,000 each, and one received $500. Applicants were required to submit an application and a 750-1,000 word essay on the topic, "The Rotary Four-Way Test and Its Relationship to the Scout Law." A panel of club members selected recipients based on the quality and content of their essays, along with their applications. The award ceremonies took place over the summer at the club's meeting place, IHOP. 2. How many people benefited from this project? 3 3.
