[Echoes of the Empire]
2017 SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIENTS BOARD MEETING MARCH 17, 2017
Scholarships for graduating high school seniors who are dependents of Empire Electric members as well as adults who are looking to further their education were awarded at the March 17 board meeting. There are also several scholarships awarded in conjunction with power suppliers Tri-State Generation and Transmission Association and Basin Electric Power Cooperative. Empire also provides lineman or
other industry-related scholarships. The application process began in December and the deadline for applications was February 15. A committee consisting of Empire Electric directors tackled the difficult task of determining scholarship winners. Congratulations to the following scholarship recipients:
