The scholarship can be used for any secondary
education after high school. This includes trade schools and community
colleges. Only high
school juniors during the 2009-2010 school year are eligible for this scholarship.
This is to ensure that fellow students can observe the scholarship winners during their senior year and to recognize the traits the students show.
By embracing CHARACTER COUNTS! the Big Sky State Games
has taken a proactive approach to building character through athletics.
