THE ANNUAL EDWARD J. DeBARTOLO MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP DINNER was held Fri., May 25 at the Covelli Center in downtown Youngstown, Oh. The event raised more than $80,000 for the DeBartolo Memorial Scholarships that have been awarded annually for more than 20 years. To date, more than $1.2 million in scholarships have been awarded every spring to select high school seniors in need of financial assistance to continue their academic careers. Last weekend’s event featured great food, a variety of auctions, a concert by the Midtown Men, as well as appearance from several Niners players. Just prior to the concert, three of the celebrities in attendance led the singing of “God Bless America,” from left, Niners offensive lineman Joe Staley; Niners General Manager John Lynch, and former Pittsburgh Steelers great Franco Harris.
