Applicants must plan to attend a college or vocational school, show involvement in school and/or community activities, supply a copy of their college acceptance letter, provide two letters of reference along with their 7 semester transcripts, and maintain academic achievement of 2.5 or better.  The scholarships will be awarded at the Atlantic High School Class Night held in May.

Funds for the scholarships are raised at an annual golf tournament.  Plans are already in the works for the 6th Annual TFred Memorial Golf Tournament to be held on Saturday, August 9th, 2013.  Organizers look forward to another successful tournament so they can continue to grant scholarships for many years to come.

Trevor Frederickson graduated from Atlantic High School in 2006.  He went on to further his education at Southwestern Community College in Creston where he studied automotive mechanics and played baseball for the Southwestern Spartans.  Two additional $750 scholarships will be available for Southwestern Community College students this fall.
