Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield’s Couri Scholarship Fund Recipients Recognized Written by BGC Ridgefield
The Boys & Girls Club of Ridgefield (BGCR) and the Couri Family are thrilled to recognize the 2021 Couri Scholarship Fund Recipients: Eli Keeler, 2021 BGCR Youth of the Year, and Vanessa Diana and Dylan Jones, 2021 BGCR Youth of the Year Finalists. All three recipients, who are longtime BGCR members and seniors at Ridgefield High School, were honored at a small ceremony at the Club on Friday, May 7, 2021.
Several years ago, the Couri Family (John, Elaine, Chris and Megan) worked with Club administration to create the Couri Scholarship Fund, which they generously fund annually, to support Club members’ post-secondary education. The Couris are long-time Club supporters, as Chris is a BGCR Alumni and former board member, and attributes a lot of his growth as a youngster to the Club.
