The Castle Rock Rotary Club | Arthur N. Brewer Scholarship

The Arthur N. Brewer Castle Rock Rotary Scholarship is named for the Club's Charter President and long time advocate of Rotary, young people and education. Mr. Brewer was a retired teacher, former school board member, avid outdoorsman and dedicated Rotarian.

The scholarship program was initiated by Castle Rock Rotary in 1990 when the Club decided to offer a scholarship to a deserving high school graduating senior from a Douglas County school exemplifying the object of Rotary ("To encourage and foster the ideal of service as a basis of worthy enterprise"). The Club was and continues to be especially anxious to recognize and reward students who have demonstrated committed service to their community and a plan to use their career as an avenue of continued service to the community.

The first scholarship was $500.00 and was awarded in 1991 to a student seeking a bachelor's degree at a four-year college. The focus of the award has been narrowed to Castle View High School students and the club is currently providing up to five one-time scholarships totaling $5000 for four-year colleges or vocational/trade schools.  

The application forms and process are designed for the award committee to learn how the applicant has and will promote the ideals and Objectives of Rotary with the education being sought. At least one scholarship will be awarded based on financial need.  Although high academic achievement is not a determining factor, the student's cumulative grade point average must be 2.5 or higher.  

At least two letters of reference are requested, along with a letter of introduction (1 page maximum) to identify yourself and the completed application are required for consideration.

The Scholarship Application is available by contacting our club via email: rotarycastlerock@gmail.com
