Applications for the Peter Williams Memorial Scholarship are being accepted through Feb. 28. Created by Old Town Alexandria Connections (OTAC), the Peter Williams Memorial Scholarship was established to honor the memory and contributions of Peter Williams and further his legacy of responsible business practices and service to others.

Williams, long-time Alexandria business attorney, civic leader and leader of OTAC until his death in February of 2014, touched the lives of countless Alexandrians through his work and civic involvement. He died while helping a neighbor clear snow from a driveway.

High school seniors currently enrolled in public or private schools located in Alexandria City or Fairfax County with an Alexandria address are eligible to apply for the scholarship. The application can be found online at www.otacnetworking.com.
