NAC announces the President’s Convention Scholarship!

Purpose: Founded by then-NAC President Maria Angles, ECM, with an initial donation in 2009, the President’s Convention Scholarship Fund was created to provide two scholarship packages each year to the NAC Annual Convention. The Fund will continue through donations and proceeds from the NAC Silent Auction, the NAC Run/Walk, and Duffers Day.

Each Scholarship package will include:

• Full registration to the NAC Annual Convention;
• Three nights hotel accommodations at the NAC host hotel;
• A stipend of up to $200 to be used for transportation to the convention location.

Those who will qualify for the President’s Convention Scholarship will:

• Be a current dues-paying member in good standing of NAC;
• Have been in the concessions industry for five years or less;
• Have never attended an NAC Convention;
• Write a short essay stating why they would like to and should be given consideration for one of the scholarships.

The applications will be sent out in February via mail to all NAC members, or you can download one here. Application deadline date is April 12, 2010. The applications will be reviewed and the winners will be announced in late April.
