Each year, our chapter gives scholarships to high school graduates in Montrose & Ouray Counties, without consideration of where the students plan to attend collage or trade school. 

The scholarships are funded by one fund raiser each year, our Annual Golf Tournament. We are grateful for the support that we receive at this tournament from so many, both players and sponsors. If you would like to support our tournament, please contact Rex or Denise Swanson. We would love to have your help. Details of the 2011 tournament are located on our "WHAT'S HAPPENING NOW" page.

We are proud to have awarded 31 scholarships to our area youth, attending colleges all over the United States. We enjoy getting to know the students who are selected each year, some of whom still stay in contact with us.
