Virginia Beach Sports Club
The Virginia Beach Sports Club is making good use of its time in the summer giving out scholarships and hosting a summer social! At the last meeting in June the club reviewed the scholarships given out at the end of the school year, a total of eleven scholarships of $2500 each given out to one exceptional student-athlete at each of the Virginia Beach public schools.
Members were all invited to bring guests to the club's summer social, which was held at the picturesque Virginia Beach National Golf Club. Sitting on the back porch of the clubhouse allowed everyone to enjoy a much-needed summer breeze while sharing a view of the green with friends.
