The Italian-American Heritage Club of Sussex County recently awarded $1,000 scholarships to Tyler James Belson and Anna Maria Fantoli.

Mr. Belson was an honor roll student and a member of the National Honor Society and his high school’s Game Club. He received recognition for passing the Advanced Placement exam and will be attending Wilmington University, where he will major in game design with a hope to create games that teach and have a positive influence on players.
