The Elks National Foundation's 2009 Most Valuable Student contest is open and applications need to be in by January 9!! You can get your application at your local Elk's lodge, or by sending an SASE to the Foundation, but at this late date, you probably need to get it online at http://www.elks.org/ENF/Scholars/downloadMVS.cfm .

They are awarding 500 4 year scholarships to the highest rated applicants. You must be a high school senior and a U.S. citizen, but you do not have to be related to an Elks member. For more information on the requirements, check out http://www.elks.org/ENF/Scholars/mvs.cfm , but do it quickly.

Whle you are at it, if you are a child or grandchild (step- included), there is another scholarship called the Legacy Awards. Get the details at http://www.elks.org/enf/scholars/legacy.cfm, but hurry...these are due by January 9 also.
