Announcement of 2023 Scholarship Winners

The Pagoda Pacers Athletic Club is proud to announce and congratulate its 2023 scholarship award winners, each of whom are Berks County high school seniors. Each winner will receive a scholarship of $750 toward their upcoming higher education plans. 

Two scholarships are open to all high school seniors whose parents are current members in good standing for at least one year of the Pagoda Pacers. Two scholarships are open to all high school seniors who participated on a Berks County high school cross country team. No eligible Pacer member children applied for the Pacer Member scholarship in 2023, so the Scholarship Committee recommended that the club award four, rather than two, scholarships to applicants for the Cross Country Scholarship.

The recipients of the 2023 Cross Country scholarship are:

• Evelyn Eastman, a senior at Wilson High School, who plans to attend SUNY Delhi 
• Katherine Ryan, a senior at Exeter Township Senior High School, who plans to attend Temple University

• Nathan Wentling, a senior at Exeter Township Senior High School, who plans to attend Robert Morris University.

The club received applications from many very strong and deserving students, and wishes all who applied the best in their future endeavors.
