Dear AJRA Member: If you are a recent high school graduate (2010), or if you graduated from high school last year (2009) and still are eligible to participate in the AJRA, you can apply for an AJRA scholarship that will be awarded during the NFR to be held in Glen Rose, Texas. In order to participate in the scholarship selection process, you must fill out the attached application and return it to me, Mary McMullan at the address below - no exceptions! The deadline is Monday, June 28, 2010. This deadline means that the application form must be in my hands by that day - this is not a postmark date! At that time, an interview appointment schedule will be created and mailed so that all scholarship participants will have prior knowledge of their interview time. Failure to comply with the deadline will cause you not to be included in the interview process and, therefore, you will not be considered for a scholarship. No one will be able to complete and hand in an application during the rodeo finals. All interviews will be on Thursday, July 29, 2010 beginning at 1 pm. Announcement of scholarship recipients will be during the Thursday night performance of the finals, right after the grand entry. To receive your scholarship, you must be present during that performance. Included along with the scholarship application are tips in preparing for your interview and guidelines that will be used by the scholarship-interviewing panel to determine this year's recipients. Please take the time to complete the application form and return it to me, Mary McMullan, by the deadline. If you have any questions about this form, please feel free to call and ask about it at (325) 473-6091. No applications will be mailed out. All forms can be downloaded from the AJRA web site or a copy can be retrieved from Ann Correll at a rodeo. Good luck to you in this AJRA season. Sincerely, Mary McMullan AJRA Scholarship Chairperson PO Box 10 Bronte, Texas 76933 SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION Click here for AJRA Scholarship Forms
