Vision For Taylorville Committee
This committee was formed and initiated by our President and CEO, Fred Ronnow.

Education Committee
The primary focus for this committee is offering several scholarships to deserving students through the Chamber as a way of “Promoting the Advancement of Education to Career”.

Three college scholarships are currently available to high school seniors throughout Christian County. These scholarships are being offered by five local colleges that have graciously agreed to fund scholarships to high school seniors who have maintained a “C” average and meet the entrance requirements of the college to which they are applying .

The colleges and the awards they are offering are as follows:

Lincoln Land Community College — Tuition and fees for two semesters.
Richland Community College Tuition for two semesters.
University of Illinois at Springfield — Tuition for two semesters.

Applicants may apply for only one award and those who reach the final phase of selection will be interviewed by a panel of judges.

Applications are due by 4:00 p.m. on the second Friday in February at the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce office, located at 108 West Market Street 2nd Floor in Taylorville.

The application/instruction form is available from all Christian County high school guidance counselors, the Greater Taylorville Chamber of Commerce office, by calling Linda Smith at 287-7246, or by clicking here.
