On the evening of Friday, June 16 with family in
attendance, the Raymond Lions Club announced the recipients of the 2017
scholarships. They include the following:

majoring in music education.

government.

Later in the evening, Gary Bibeau was awarded the Melvin
Jones Fellowship, recognition of humanitarian work. Bibeau has been
active in the club since joining in 2013, helping with blood drives,
scholarships, vision support and more. Bibeau spends hours serving the
Raymond community at the Raymond Food Pantry. He also gathers food from
multiple suppliers such as Good Shepherd and Hannaford, then organizes and
coordinates volunteer workers to prepare for the biweekly distribution on the
second and fourth Thursday of each month.
Raymond Lions Club thanks the community for their support
in raising the money for scholarships through bottle donations in bins at
Raymond town office (Route 85) and Jordan Bay Animal Hospital (Route 302).
