I am excited to report the news that South County Airport Pilots Association (SCAPA) received a donation of $5,565.72 on November 23, 2021, from Santa Clara County Airmens Association (SCCAA) for the sole purpose of scholarships.
After many decades of pilot fellowship and serving the community, SCCAA is disbanding, and thanks to the efforts of SCAPA members Ron Blake and Penny Blake, SCCAA chose to donate this remaining money to SCAPA. The funds will be earmarked for scholarships to deserving aviation students at San Martin Airport (E16).
SCAPA has awarded dozens of scholarships to deserving local students for more than a decade.
Details of the 2022 SCAPA Scholarship program will be available within the next few months.
Thank you to all involved for this generous donation!
