Oregon Scottish Rite JROTC Award Program

This has been an outstanding year for the Oregon Scottish Rite JROTC awards program. We awarded twenty-one $500 checks to Cadets in the 11 JROTC high schools in Oregon. These awards are funded by the Portland Valley Scottish Rite Acacia Fund. The Awards are for excellence in Leadership, Academics and Community Service. The $500 Awards are presented by Scottish Rite Committee Representatives, from the Orient valleys and clubs, at JROTC High School Awards Ceremonies.

The JROTC Awards Committee members are:

  • Earl Tradup, Chairman
  • Eckhardt H. Gazow, Treasurer
  • Dave Johnson, Central Oregon Scottish Rite Club, Mountain View High Bend
  • Stuart Johnson, Central Oregon Scottish Rite Club, La Pine High
  • RWB Ron Terry, Central Oregon Scottish Rite Club, Redmond High
  • James Van Voorhees, Central Oregon Scottish Rite Club, Crook County High Prineville
  • George Trahern, Central Oregon Scottish Rite Club, Madras High
  • William O’Neill, Salem Valley, North Salem High, Lebanon High, Mc Nary High
  • Tommy Meyer, Klamath Falls
  • John Tucker, Portland, Oregon city High, Reynolds High Troutdale

In 2016 we hope to expand the Awards Budget with the help of donations from
Individuals, Valleys and Scottish Rite Clubs. In 2015 we received a $500 donation from the Eugene Valley.

I would personally like to thank all the Brothers who participated in this very successful year.
