Colin Garwood has been serving as the executive Director of LDA Life and Learning Services for the past 10 years.

Mr. Garwood is a resident of Greece, NY and has three children, Jonathan, 22, David, 21 and Erica, 19.
Mr. Garwood expressed his congratulations to the winners and thanked the donors who make the scholarships possible. He shared his fond memories of attending classes at GCC, working a restaurant job after school and living in a rented apartment in Batavia. He also encouraged students to value their supportive families and the friendships made during their college years. He closed by encouraging students to continue learning after college.
"Learning is a life-long process," Mr. Garwood noted. "Learning isn't done when you complete college."
