The Christian Harness Horsemen’s Association has announced that it wants to see harness racing youth succeed, and, to help the students, the CHHA plans to award two scholarships in 2016.

The first scholarship is the $1,000 John and Janet Klark Memorial Scholarship, and the second is the $300 Rambling Willie Scholarship

CHHA scholarships are available to graduating high school seniors and/or students that are enrolled in an educational institution of higher learning. Students who demonstrate a strong commitment to their Christian faith and are involved in harness racing are encouraged to apply. The Scholarship Committee gives special attention to how the applicant demonstrates his/her Christian faith in daily living and his/her involvement in harness racing, in addition to financial need and the course of study the applicant is undertaking. Students must be full-time and may be enrolled in degree or certificate programs.

The CHHA loves watching their scholarship recipients become all God made them to be. Ohio’s Lindsay Hagemyer is a great example of young lady who is using the talents God gave her to make a difference for the Lord and for harness racing. CHHA is proud of Lindsay and is happy to have played a small part in helping with her education. Lindsay is currently applying to veterinary schools.

The application is available on the CHHA website (chha.net). Completed applications including all attachments must be postmarked on or before April 30, 2016. Recipients will be announced no later than July 1, 2016. All applicants will be notified of their status.
