Clearly overwhelmed by the surprise and size of the gift Joanne Ruffa receives a scholarship gift from District 7610 this evening. Originally created by Burt Lamkin, Rotary 7610 District Governor in 2006-07, Burt set asides funds to support Youths at Risk programs. Finally deciding that Tappahannock's support for the Jacob's Ladder program more than met all of his expectations, the District released a check for $5,215 to Joanne Ruffa to use as scholarship to support two Jacob's Ladder Climbers in this year's upcoming summer program at St. Margaret's School, Tappahannock.
