The Amateur Trapshooting Association Hall of Fame is offering seven scholarships for 2019, totaling $27,000. Five $5,000 scholarships and two $1,000 scholarships are available.

Graduating seniors who are active Amateur Trapshooting Association (ATA) members may apply for these scholarships.

Payouts are as follows: the five $5,000 scholarships will be paid out over four years and the two $1,000 scholarships will be a one-time payment.

Students must be enrolled in an accredited college/university full-time, as well as maintain at least a 2.5 (from a scale of 4.0) cumulative GPA.

The five $5,000 scholarships are open to all qualifying students; however, the two $1,000 scholarships are only available to graduating seniors who reside in Wyoming or Idaho.

These scholarships are a result of the generosity of the Lander Trap Club of Wyoming and the late X.E. (Bus) Durant of Idaho.
