The Ridgefield Old Timers Associations honors Ridgefield athletes and members of the community while giving scholarships to scholar athletes of the present.

Since its founding over 30 years ago, the Ridgefield Old Timer’s Association has recognized dozens of dedicated citizens for preserving Ridgefield’s heritage and culture. The organization has also awarded thousands of dollars in college scholarships to outstanding RHS scholar athletes.

Each year, four-year scholarships of $1000 per year are awarded to a male and a female RHS senior. Students must demonstrate excellence in academics as well as athletic proficiency and community service. In addition, a one-year scholarship is awarded to one or more deserving student/athletes.
