The Schutzhund USA Youth Scholarship is intended to be recognition in the form of an educational grant to those well-rounded student scholars. Winning a scholarship is beneficial to any student, even several years following their receipt of the award. The Schutzhund USA Youth Scholarship Committee believes that it is very important for students to recognize their own potential early in their academic careers in order for them to foster its growth—receiving recognition from an organization or company helps the students take this step.
The SV now requires that the AD be specifically requested when a club is hosting a Show/Kormeister judge.
Make certain your SV Judge request and event authorization notes the request for an AD when preparing the paperwork for your conformation show and breed survey.

The Schutzhund USA Youth Scholarship is intended to be recognition in the form of an educational grant to those well-rounded student scholars. Winning a scholarship is beneficial to any student, even several years following their receipt of the award. When a student is recognized for their accomplishments, it gives them confidence to pursue other goals. Receiving a scholarship indicates the student stood out among his peers, and that the scholarship provider recognized this quality.

On behalf of the GEC and with my pleasure that I wish to congratulate the O.G. Buckeye Schutzhund Club as the winner of the Regional Directors and Presidents award for the Mid-Eastern Region. The following announcement was read at the Annual Meeting last night regarding the winners of the Regional Directors and Presidents Awards.
We had eleven clubs submit nominations with participation from six of the ten regions. We would like to thank all of the clubs who participated and the Regional Directors who encouraged the clubs in their respective regions to submit nominations.
Given the recognition and prizes (the President's Award winner gets $600 and the others $250 each) and the subsequent publicity for the winning clubs in USA media; we are hopeful that more clubs will participate next year and we can boast that every region submitted at least one nomination.
Congratulations and thank you again for your support and participation.
