The Capt. James Ormond Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution recognized three members at its last meeting.
Alice Zimbler was awarded her 10-year certificate and Karen Knowles and Denise Sikes were honored for collectively volunteering over 1,000 hours to the chapter in 2023, according to a statement from the chapter.
The chapter also awarded scholarships to two students: Felicia Wiggins and Melissa Pandy, from the Daytona College Fresh Start Program. Fresh Start is a free transition program designed to provide support and encouragement, while offering practical tools for success in achieving one's academic and personal goals. After completing Fresh Start, graduates are better prepared to enroll in a degree or certificate program at DSC.
In addition, the chapter welcomed a new member, Deb Abel, at its March meeting. Abel was joined by her friend and DAR mentor Peggy Wilburn, who just celebrated her 97th birthday and has been a DAR member for over 30 years.
