The Country Radio Broadcasters have announced the deadline for submitting Rusty Walker Scholarship applications. Interested parties can apply now through Oct. 23, 2017 at www.CountryRadioSeminar.com. Each applicant must fill out an online application and submit a paragraph explaining why he/she should be considered as a Rusty Walker Scholar. Eligible applicants must be full-time radio station employees and a first-time CRS attendee. Three individual scholarships will be awarded.
Each scholarship provides an all-expense paid trip to CRS 2018, including a full registration, airfare, and hotel room expenses for three nights (Monday, Feb. 5, 2018 – Wednesday, February 7, 2018). Scholars will be recognized at the CRS 2018 opening ceremonies and will have the opportunity to meet and engage with CRS board members during the three-day seminar. Staff from Rusty Walker Programming will also meet with the winning applicants.
The Rusty Walker Scholarship program is named in honor of Country Radio Hall of Fame member Rusty Walker, who passed away in May 2012 at the age of 59.
