Watersheds offering scholarships
The State Association of Kansas Watersheds is offering two $300 scholarships for high school seniors entering college or vocational schools this fall. Interested students must first apply to their local watershed district to be considered for the state scholarship.
Sand Creek Watershed District No. 68 and Doyle Creek Watershed District No. 86 are accepting applications and will select one each from their respective district to advance to the state competition. Applicants must be a high school senior and must reside in the watershed district in which they are applying. Agriculture-related majors are preferred, but not required.
Both Sand Creek and Doyle Creek Watershed Districts are in parts of Harvey and Marion Counties. Property tax statements can be used to identify if you live in a watershed district and which one. For more information or to receive an application, contact the Harvey County Conservation District Office by calling 316-282-3460.
