County Club to Award Scholarships to Morristown Students

25 area high school seniors will receive $4,000 scholarships.

Continuing a long tradition, the 200 Club of Morris County will award scholarships to deserving children of Morris County police, fire and emergency medical services providers at the Annual Scholarship Dinner on May 20 at Zeris Inn in Mountain Lakes.

Nayna Rani Shah, Morristown High School and Timothy Christian Worts, Morristown-Beard High School are two of the 25 high school seniors who will receive $4,000 scholarships, paid over four years of college.  Scholarship criteria include academic performance, community service, extracurricular activities and family financial need. 

The 200 Club of Morris County supports Morris County’s first- responders and has been helping their children afford college since 1982.

“Our police officers, firefighters and EMS responders put their lives on the line every day,” said Jack C. Van Orden Jr., president. “These are not jobs that are going to make anybody rich. In fact, many firefighters and EMTs are volunteers. Helping them meet the financial challenge of educating their children is one way of saying thank you.”

Van Orden pointed out that some scholarship winners are, themselves, first responders.
