The Chequit’s main dining room was filled with friends, family and well-wishers early on Saturday evening for the annual meeting of the Shelter Island Educational Foundation. Recipients of individual and institutional awards talked about their experiences, and participants in programs made possible through designated gifts also shared what the programs meant to them.
Field trips, Career Conversations, Young Playwrights, Ocean Classroom, Peconic Bay Science Program are just a few examples of activities that take students out of the classroom and broaden their horizons. Institutional awards benefit the school, the Shelter Island Library, the Scouts and Communities that Care, among others.
