Rapp/Mantes ScholarshipsScholarshipsAs most of those in the scale industry are aware, the Rapp/Mantes Education Fund awards scholarships to those associated with the scale industry, their children, and grandchildren. The Education Fund is named in honor of Mack Rapp and Ted Mantes, long-standing leaders in the scale industry, and the primary source of these funds. The number of scholarships awarded and the value of each will vary each year depending on the funds available. An application form for a scholarship is available on or shortly after January 1 of each year. An application must be submitted by June 1 of each year, and the applicant is informed of the Committee’s decisions on or before July 1 of that year. This year the Scholarship Committee met by conference call. It was extremely rewarding to review each application, as it aids in an assurance that there is a bright future ahead for all of us. This year 12 scholarships were awarded as follows: Maxine Mohesky Rockhurst University $1500 Iris Mohesky Southeast Missouri State $1500 James Molina The Ohio State University $1000 Gain Honerlaw Cincinnati State Technical College $1000 James Santarpio Montana State University $1000 Joe Molina Ohio University $1000 Ansley Fowler North Greenville University $1000 Jerry Robertson Erskin College $1000 It is the wish of the Committee that each of the applicants continue their education and apply again next year, and that more in our profession encourage their sons, daughters, grandsons, and granddaughters to apply. Make a request for an application form early and one will be mailed shortly after January 1. Send the request to:Rapp/Mantes Education Fund
