High school seniors in Door County can get a jump start on financing their future education at a technical college with help from the Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay. Applications for the Rotary Technical Education/Robert Muckian Scholarship are being accepted now for the 17th year. The scholarships range from $500 to $1,500 and are funded through the Rotary Club of Sturgeon Bay Charitable Trust and an endowment from the estate of Rotarian Robert Muckian. Committee Chair Dr. John Swanson says each application requires a brief essay on "Service Above Self" which is Rotary International's motto.
The scholarship application deadline is March 15th, with awards presented at the Rotary luncheon in May. The Sturgeon Bay Rotary Club also offers "Service Above Self" academic scholarships for seniors seeking four-year education. You can find the complete scholarship information at the Door County Scholarship Network website here.
