The Minnesota Turkey Growers Association is announcing its 2013 Ranelius Scholarship Program, designed to encourage students enrolled in a post-secondary educational institution in Minnesota to prepare for a career in the turkey industry.
A total of $5,000 is available for scholarship awards.
Recipients must be a Minnesota resident and either be enrolled or plan to be enrolled in a post high school educational program that will prepare them for employment in some phase of the poultry industry. While there are no restrictions on the major or program selected, it must provide suitable training for the applicant's stated career goals. Preference will be given to applicants who have not previously received an MTGA scholarship, and who are either members of the MTGA, or who are family members or employees of members of the MTGA.
The selection of the scholarship recipient will be made by an MTGA Board of Directors and based on the applications received.
