USA BMX announces $27,000 in Scholarship Awards

 

Gilbert, AZ – The Scholarship Committee at USA BMX announced today that $27,000 is being awarded to twenty individual recipients. “We had a number of strong candidates and the applications we received were all impressive”, said BA Anderson, CEO of USA BMX. “We are pleased to award 20 deserving individuals who have dedicated themselves in the classroom as well as on the BMX track”, continued Anderson.

The Bob Warnicke Memorial Scholarship Fund was created to assist students and their families in meeting the costs of undergraduate college education, trade school, etc. USA BMX/BMX Canada members who have a current USA BMX/BMX Canada license or Track Operators/Officials who participate in BMX racing events sanctioned by USA BMX/BMX Canada were eligible to apply.

Funds for the scholarship are raised through Bob Warnicke Scholarship races held at individual BMX tracks around the United States and Canada. While not all tracks hosted scholarship races in 2011, many more tracks will be hosting races in 2012. With an increased number of tracks participating, funds awarded next year are sure to increase.
