The Lancaster County Conservation District (LCCD) anticipates granting two $1,000 scholarships to Lancaster County high school seniors in 2021. Applications will be accepted from students continuing their education in the 2021-22 school year with the intent of majoring in a curriculum that focuses on natural resources and/or conservation.
Examples of acceptable programs of studies include environmental sciences, wildlife and/or fisheries biology, environmental resource management, or other related programs, leading to a degree such as a two-year associate degree or four-year baccalaureate degree. The completed application must be received in the LCCD office by Wednesday, March 31.
The scholarship committee of LCCD will conduct a review of the applicants.
