BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – The Melbourne Chamber of Commerce recently awarded Kelly van Woesik, a senior at Satellite High, with the Outstanding Young Adult award.

The Outstanding Young Adult award program has a long history, as it has recognized exceptional students at BPS high schools for more than 25 years.  Seniors are selected from each of local high schools and one student from each school is recognized each month at a Chamber luncheon.

While the student’s scholastic record weighs heavily in the application, the Chamber of Commerce looks for well-rounded individuals that have exhibited strong leadership skills during their high school career.

“Selection for this award is not easy; there are many students that have exceptional scholastic and service records,” stated Sarah Sulski, Melbourne Chamber event coordinator.
