Applications Now Available For 2024 Jeff Jurgens Memorial Scholarships

The Scottie Booster Club is currently accepting applications for 2024 Jeff Jurgens Memorial Scholarships. The competitive annual scholarships are awarded to Valley County’s graduating seniors (Class of 2024) who played basketball in high school or who plan to pursue a degree in a medical or health-related field. Other considerations for scholarship awards are community service, academic achievement, and financial need.

Applications for 2024 scholarships must be postmarked no later than Monday, May 13, in order to be considered. Applications are available from guidance counselors in Glasgow, Hinsdale, Nashua, Frazer, Lustre, and Opheim schools. Prospective applicants can also request an application directly from Andrew McKean by emailing [email protected] or calling 406-263-5442.

 The Jeff Jurgens Memorial Scholarships are funded by proceeds from the annual Jeff Jurgens Memorial Basketball Tournament, the booster club’s largest fundraiser. The 25th annual JJMT was held in mid-March in Glasgow, and hosted over 60 youth basketball teams from across eastern Montana.

 Besides awarding JJMT Scholarships, the Scottie Booster Club helps purchase team uniforms, equipment, and otherwise supports Glasgow School District athletics and extracurricular activities. For information about becoming a Booster Club member or the benefits of membership, contact president Mike Pehlke at 406-263-9899.
