Greetings,

My name is Rolanda Pace and I am reaching out to you on behalf of the CHAMPion Memorial Scholarship Committee. This committee was formed as an effort to develop an athletic/ academic scholarship to commemorate Coach Calvin D. Hampton. Coach Hampton, better known as "Coach Hamp", was an influential individual on and off the football field. He assisted many young men and women not only in perfecting sports, but also in enhancing their academic performance through strengthening their confidence, inspiring their determination, and challenging their efforts towards self-improvement. He was a supportive and encouraging mentor to the youth and was often viewed as an additional parent by his students. Coach Hamp remains irreplaceable and truly missed by those who knew him. He left endless memories within the community and touched many hearts within the surrounding areas. Although our hearts continue to mourn his absence, we know Coach Hamp would prefer we utilize our time in a more productive way; helping the youth.

Needless to say, it is our pleasure to present to you the Calvin D. Hampton CHAMPion Memorial Scholarship. This scholarship aims to provide financial assistance to Senior athletes who plan to attend college (2 year, 4 year, or vocational). The amount awarded will be contingent on the amount raised during the prior year. 100% proceeds will go towards the scholarship. The first scholarship will be presented at the First Annual Father-Daughter Masquerade Ball in honor of Coach Hamp scheduled for February 5, 2022. ALL nominees are required to be in attendance.

What do we need from you? We would appreciate assistance in helping to disseminate this information to your graduating Seniors to provide them the opportunity to apply. The application deadline is December 1, 2021.

Please refer to our website for specific details, scholarship eligibility criteria, and scholarship application. (Copy and Paste the link below into your browser)


This is a great opportunity for our students as they prepare to transition to their next level in life. I am certain Coach Hamp would be pleased with our efforts. I am more than willing to answer any additional questions. Please feel free to contact me. My information is listed below. Thank you for your time.

Respectfully,

Dr. Rolanda Pace
