October 28, 2016
Dominic Esposito ’18 has earned the Congressional Award Gold Medal. The distinction is awarded to participants who complete a minimum of 400 hours of voluntary public service, 200 hours of personal development, and 200 hours of physical fitness, and spend at least five consecutive days and four nights exploring a new environment or culture.
For the past two years, Dominic has been consistently working to achieve this award.

This year’s event raised over $2,000 to benefit The FoodBank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
In earning the distinction, Dominic will be recognized next June by his U.S. Representative at a ceremony to be held in Washington DC. Congratulations to Dominic on this wonderful milestone and achievement.
