Hopkinton Garden Club honors pair

The Hopkinton Garden Club awarded scholarships to Olivia Sward and Ryan D’Alleva at Hopkinton High School’s Senior Recognition Night in June.

Sward will attend the University of California, Berkeley, while D’Alleva is headed to the University of Vermont. Both plan to pursue degrees in environmental studies.

“It was thrilling to have such high-caliber students apply for this year’s scholarship and to see their passion and interest in the environment really come through in their personal essays,” said Elaine Gowdy, chair of the Hopkinton Garden Club Scholarship Committee. “We wish Olivia and Ryan the best of luck this fall and can’t wait to see what they do next.”
