2011 Award and Scholarship Winners (BDPA Los Angeles)

John Malonson

BDPA Los Angeles chapter had a remarkable year of success and accomplishment in 2011.   The chapter is the largest in the West Region with aspirations of becoming the largest chapter in the nation.  The chapter also taught 30+ middle- and high school students in a summer computer camp with a number of those students competing in regional and national computer competitions.

BDPA Los Angeles chapter president John Malonson shared his pride and appreciation for the members, sponsors, students and volunteers that contributed to the chapter's success during the Annual Awards Banquet held last month.   Here is a list of the scholarship and award winners:
