$1,000 FAB Bursary Early Notice

The CKNX Radio Farm Advisory Board is giving students a heads-up about this year's FAB bursary.

It's a one thousand dollar bursary being offered to a Midwestern Ontario student enrolled in a post-secondary, agriculture-related program.

That can range from entering first year to entering final year, effective in September.

For the purposes of the bursary, Midwestern Ontario includes the counties of Huron, Bruce, Grey and Perth and the northern sections of Wellington and Waterloo and the western part of Dufferin.

The Board is looking for students who have a proven track record of contributing to their industry and their community and who have the potential to be future role models.

They also need to be enthusiastic about the agriculture industry.

More information is available in the Agrimedia section of BlackburnNews.com.

Deadline for applications is October 15th.
