We had two winners, Janice and Rose, for last year's GWW Scholarships based
on their willingness to be a superlative GWW role model and were each awarded
$1000. They showed potential to continue her interaction with the GWW
organization, via the website and events, so she can assist GWW in
encouraging more young girls to have an interest in aviation. If you would like
