Dejanelle Abel, a 2020 graduate of Hempfield High School, recently received the East Petersburg Woman's Club Scholarship.
Dejanelle is the daughter of Dustin and Danielle Abel of Columbia. She was the editor of the Flash, the school newspaper, for the last four years. She also participated in Student Council and dance theater. Dejanelle plans to attend Bloomsburg University in the fall.
This year marks the first time in many years that the club has awarded a scholarship. One requirement is that the student must have attended East Petersburg Elementary School for three years. The club has been a General Federation of Women's Clubs member for 57 years and has served the community during that time. Its major fundraisers include an annual plant sale and East Petersburg Day.
