2024 Mini Reunion
May 5, 2024

Victoria Gardens Community Center
401 Victoria Gardens Drive
Kennett Square, Penna

As a class, we decided to present two scholarships from the class of 1966 to the class of 2016. We used the remaining funds from the 2016 Reunion because no one wanted to be responsible for keeping it for a future reunion.

2016 Scholarships

Graduate

Scholarships were awarded to Cody Harding and Dante Pesce.

Cody Harding

“I wanted to thank you and the Avon Grove Class of 1966 for the scholarship awarded to me.  The funds have already helped with some of my college expenses.  Thanks for helping me succeed.  Sincerely, Cody Harding.”

Dante Pesce

“I would like to express my appreciation for being named a recipient of one of the AGHS Class of 1966 Scholarships.  I recently started college at the Automotive Training Center.  I entered the Hi-Performance Program at ATC.  Your generous gift will help me get through college and obtain my dream of working for a BMW Company. Again, thank you for the honor.”  Dante Pesce (He happens to be Jean Bacino Pesce’s nephew. How amazing is that!!)
