The Exchange Club of Jacksonville presented Bolles seniors Isabel Bassin ’24 and Gabe Coleman ’24 with “Youth of the Year” Awards at a luncheon on March 7.

Each year, Bolles recipients are invited to one of the Exchange Club’s monthly meetings, along with their parents and their college counselor, to be recognized for their outstanding leadership, scholarship and citizenship. 

Bolles Director of College Counseling Daphne Vagenas accompanied the students to the luncheon along with Bassin’s uncle, Mark Teixeira, and Coleman’s parents, Sean Coleman and Mae Coleman. Both students now have the potential to move forward in the broader statewide competition among other Exchange Clubs.

The Exchange Club of Jacksonville consists of people from all walks of life who share a common desire to serve the community. More than 100 years old, the National Exchange Club is a civic-minded organization that serves hundreds of communities through a variety of important projects.

Congratulations, Isabel and Gabe! #BulldogProud #BulldogsInspiringGoodness
