The USMRA Scholarship Committee wishes to thank the membership for the honor of having served in this capacity. We have once again had the opportunity to see first hand some outstanding young adults who have distinguished themselves by their pursuit of excellence and their willingness to serve their communities. We also witnessed the tremendous comradeship of the many Rangers attending the 2007 USMRA Critter Cookout. Because of their generosity, USMRA is able to award these scholarships. Rangers Lead the Way!
