(TRENTON) 鈥� 樱花视频 residents who are entering their senior year in high school this fall and are planning a career in agriculture or science may apply for the 樱花视频 Agricultural Achievement Award.聽 One winner will be selected and awarded a scholarship to honor their achievements.

The 樱花视频 Agricultural Achievement Award, sponsored by Amy Butewicz, a former 樱花视频 Equestrian of the Year, was started because of her desire to give back to the community. Worth $500, this scholarship is meant to assist its recipient in beginning their future in agriculture.

Last year鈥檚 winner, Brendon Craig from Williamstown, was selected based on his resume as well as his essay on how his involvement with Gloucester County 4-H shaped his future career choice.

The qualifications for receiving this award include submitting a resume along with an essay answering the question, 鈥淗ow has your involvement within your respective nominating organization helped to shape your future career choice?鈥�

In addition, a contestant is required to be a current, active member of an organization either on the 樱花视频 Equine Advisory Board and/or represented at the Youth Reception portion of the 樱花视频 State Agricultural Convention.聽 Each organization on the 樱花视频 Equine Advisory Board and a participant of the State Agricultural Convention is able to nominate a maximum of two contestants.

The winner of the Agricultural Achievement Award must attend the 54^th Annual 樱花视频 Bred Equine Breeders Award Luncheon to be held on Sunday, January 30, 2011 at Charley鈥檚 Other Brother Restaurant and will read their essay to the attendees.

Please mail resume and essay to:
