A scholar being defined as, “one who studies under a teacher”, we will
work with youth groups of different ages, backgrounds, and mental and physical
abilities.
Scholarships will be a major emphasis. We want to vigorously promote State,
Deep South, and National Life Memberships. Artist Carol Keefe, has a “Scholarship
Jug” for each of the State Presidents. Use it to collect monies at your
meetings for scholarship. There are some fun ways to get members to contribute
to the “Jug”. For example: a penny for each year of your age. A lot of
people will put in a dollar so that someone standing nearby cannot find
out their age by counting as each penny drops. There will be competition
among our six states for the greatest percentage increase in State, Deep
South, and National Life Memberships.
