Attention,
higher-education students: Don’t miss out on the opportunity to compete for a
combined $3,000 in educational scholarships. The deadline for the 2014 WNAAA
Scholarship Essay Contest is this Friday, Aug. 15. The WNAAA will award a $2,000 scholarship
as top prize in the 32nd annual essay competition, and Covington
Aircraft Engines has generously agreed to sponsor a $1,000 scholarship.
The
theme for this year’s contest is “The Implications of UAVs in Ag Aviation.” The
competition is open to all NAAA members and their family members. (Allied
industry company members can only sponsor one eligible family member per
contest.) The scholarship can be applied to any educational pursuit beyond high
school; it is not restricted to a “flying career.” More information about
eligibility requirements, contest guidelines and sample essays from past scholarship
recipients is available in the WNAAA
Scholarship section of the website.
