The Franklin County Chamber of Commerce is again offering a scholarship for eligible Franklin County residents enrolled in college-level courses.

A $1,000 scholarship is available to 2013 high school graduates as well as anyone going back to school for a new career, new skills training or continuing past freshman year.

To receive the scholarship, the student must be registered as a full-time student.

Funded by the annual Chamber/Seth Wescott Scholarship Golf Classic event held at Sugarloaf in the fall, these scholarships, in addition to tuition fees, may be used for on-campus housing and online courses offered by educational institutions if part of a degree program.

Applications are available on the Chamber’s website, www.franklincountymaine.org (in the ‘Chamber Information’ section, under the ‘Chamber Programs’ link), and are due into the Chamber no later than Friday, May 10.

You may also request an application by emailing [email protected].

SAVE THE DATE! FCCOC and Seth Wescott will be back out on the Sugarloaf Golf Course on September 13th working to raise funds for the 2014 scholarship fund. Save the date and help support this worthwhile initiative!
