Applications are being accepted for the Four Corners Board of Realtors Dean Hanson Memorial Scholarship.
The scholarship may be awarded to traditional and nontraditional students seeking their post-secondary or graduate education, regardless of their year of enrollment.
Applicants must be a resident of Montezuma or Dolores counties.
Awardees will be selected on criteria that include academic scholarship, leadership and financial need. Last year, 10 students were awarded $1,000 each to further their post-secondary education.
The scholarship fund is supported by the Dean Hanson Memorial Golf Tournament, co-chaired by Carol Click and Marti Spitzer of RE/MAX Mesa Verde Realty.
The 2021 Dean Hanson Memorial Golf Tournament will be held Sept. 11 at the Conquistador Golf Course.
Dean Hanson was a Realtor and involved community leader. He coached Little League and was instrumental in getting the Elks club built.
The deadline to apply is May 1.
