scholarship competition
[JAN.

Bank of Lincoln has announced a scholarship competition that enables
Illinois high school seniors to enter a statewide essay-writing
contest. It is part of a program sponsored by Illinois community
banks and the CBAI Foundation for Community Banking to increase
public awareness of locally owned banks and their contributions to
the community.

State
Bank of Lincoln is a member of the Community Bankers Association of
Illinois (CBAI), which formed the foundation in 1996. A scholarship
in the amount of $1,000 per year for up to four years of higher
education will be awarded to the author of the best essay submitted
to the CBAI Foundation by a participating Illinois high school
senior. Up to 12 additional $1,000 awards are available in each of
the regions of the state. An additional $500 will be awarded to the
high school of the overall winner.
The
bank is working with Lincoln Community High School, Mount Pulaski
High School and Olympia High School to invite seniors to submit
short essays on this theme: "What new or enhanced products and
services will community banks be offering in the 21st
century?"
