Congratulations to Atticus Yaros and Elayna McDonald on being selected to receive the Au Lac Council Justin Mello Memorial Award! They received the award during the Immaculate Conception School sports award program on May 18th. Their names will be engraved on a plaque which is displayed in the main hallway.
Justin Mello was a former student at I.C. School whose life ended early. Justin was just 16 years old when he was murdered during a robbery where he worked. He was a well known and loved member of our I.C. community which was devastated by his loss.
Since his passing on October 21, 2000 the K of C Au Lac Council 10724 and Immaculate Conception School have honored Justin’s memory by selecting one 8th grade boy and one 8th grade girl who best demonstrate his qualities in four important categories – Academics; Citizenship; Conduct; and Athletics. The names of many deserving boys and girls were submitted and evaluated for the award. Congratulations again to Atticus and Elayna!
