Haverhill Bank announced it recently distributed 18 $750 scholarships to area students. Recipients are all employed at area golf courses and qualified for a scholarship based on their knowledge of the life of Joseph F. Healey – a Methuen amateur golfer who unexpectedly died in 2011 at age 46 – their successful academic performance, their “outstanding character” and their involvement in community activities. The awards were presented at the annual Joseph F. Healey Memorial Golf Tournament.
