Last Call For Foothills Ag Service Board Scholarships

Foothills County is still taking applications for their two Agricultural Service Board scholarships.
 
On their website, the County says the pair of $2,500 awards are open to second, third or fourth year post-secondary students from the County who are working towards a diploma or degree.
 
Applicants must be studying agronomy, animal science, ag business, agricultural production, agricultural mechanics, or studies intended to effect change on the agricultural landscape.
 
They say you'll need to provide a 500 word essay on why you're studying for, and pursuing a career in agriculture, along with proof of enrollment, transcripts, and leadership and community involvement.
