Eagan Funfest Scholarship Program
The Funfest scholarship program revolves around volunteerism and developing leaders who will serve as positive role models as ambassadors for the Funfest and our community. Ambassadors spend a year (July 2023 – July 2024) visiting other communities throughout the Twin Cities area; meeting people through parades, coronations, and other special events. These experiences provide valuable leadership skills and create memories to last a lifetime. At the end of the year, Ambassadors are rewarded with a $2,000 scholarship!
Candidates must live, attend school, or worship in Eagan. Eagan High School has been well represented in this program over the years. Current Wildcat, Ashley Molina, is an Ambassador and has represented this program well.
There will be an information meeting on Wednesday, May 10th, 7:00pm, at the Eagan Community Center. To learn more about the Scholarship Program visit: https://eaganfunfest.org/ambassadors/.
