    Granby-Simsbury Chamber of Commerce Scholarship

    The Chamber Memorial Award honors the lives of esteemed Chamber members who have passed. The honorees have dedicated time and energy to the Chamber over years and leave our Community in a better place from their invaluable contributions. With the memories of both these members in mind, we look to award a student who personifies their love of life, community and local involvement.
