The scholarship application is now available online by going to the Rotary Club website at www.silvercityrotary.org and clicking on the College Scholarship Application link to be found on the home page. The deadline for receipt of completed applications will be March 15, 2016. By that time, not only the online application but also all supporting materials must have been submitted to the club.
