Congratulations and thanks to everyone who helped us reach our initial goal of $10,000! The scholarship administrators, AAAA, matched those funds in 2004, and we awarded our first scholarship in 2005.
We have now awarded our fourth $1,000 scholarship, and our remaining
balance is about $27,800.
But we aren't finished. We're growing the fund so we can increase our
scholarships in the future. Please make your donation to this important project.
To qualify for our scholarship, applicants must be family of a deceased member
of the 7/17th Air Cav, or a family member of an active member of the
Association. Students can also qualify for other Quad-A scholarships by being a
member of that organization for two consecutive years.
Now you can donate to the Scholarship Fund by sending a check to Kurt Jackson,
399 Green Creek Dr, Glasgow, KY 42141. Be sure to mark it "Scholarship" in the
comments section.
To be a part of the committee or for more information, please contact Barry at

Diane Speare has been manufacturing guidons for our members. They are $60
including shipping and $5 goes to the scholarship fund. These are made of very
durable Sportcloth to withstand the elements. To order yours, contact Barry at
