Scholarship Program
Our high school scholarship program has been a long tradition of the
Maxwell Club.
High school players are nominated by their coaches and fellow athletes
for outstanding performances on and off the field.
Area high school athletes are honored at weekly dinners in the fall and

athletic as well as academic abilities.
For his efforts, the winner of the Henry award receives a scholarship
