THE SW(E)E(A)TLAND FAMILY SCHOLARSHIP
AWARD
The 1993
scholarship committee set up the conditions, which, as amended below,
remain in effect, today.
- The
recipient must be a Sw(e)e(a)tland descendant.
- First
choice will be to a high school senior or college freshman.
- Winners
become ineligible in future years, unless no qualified high school
seniors or college freshmen apply.
- Students
who apply should include a recommendation by a family member. The
deadline for applications is March 1 of the year in which the student
is a high school senior or college freshman.
- Attendance
at the reunion is not required. However, we encourage the recipient to
attend or have a family member at the reunion.
- The
award will be based on scholastic achievement, athletic endeavors, and
leadership qualities as attested to by grades, teachers, and school
officials. The committee will choose the recipient. A demonstrated
interest in family genealogy will carry weight toward the award.
These rules may be
modified or added to as the need arises.

We agreed at the 1997
reunion to award $250.00 in all even years beginning in 1998 to a high school
senior or college freshman. Since no application came in for the year 2000,
a scholarship was awarded in 2001 and will be awarded in odd years
afterwards
