Each of the three days the convention's trade show is open, one lucky attendee will be selected to choose the affiliate organization that will receive a $500 scholarship grant.  In turn, the organization-which must be a state affiliate of either NCBA or the American National Cattle Women (ANCW or the ANCW foundation)-will award the $500 educational scholarship to a deserving youth during 2012.

Convention participants can register to win and select their participating organization by registering at the AgriLabs booth (#436).

"Educating the youth of today who will be the leaders of our industry tomorrow is an important responsibility," says Adam Yankowsky, business unit manager, AgriLabs.  "Partnering with the NCBA and ANCW allows us to convert producer participation at the AgriLabs booth into scholarships totaling $1500."
