It is with pleasure that we would like to announce the recipients of the 2006 conference scholarship awards. We would also like to take this opportunity to offer our sincere thanks for the generous contributions made by our sponsors which contributions have once again made this year’s conference into one the most financially successful we have experienced! Consequently it was agreed by the CMC membership at the annual general meeting in July, to give scholarships totalling $8,000 for the third year running!
The entire profit raised at the conference is directed towards the CMC scholarship fund. This scholarship is presented to qualified applicants who are relatives of employees of CMC member companies. We know that with the increasing financial demands placed on young people in their pursuit of academic excellence, this award is truly appreciated by the recipients.
This year we received eighteen applications. Candidates are assessed by grading their academic excellence, financial need, community service and extracurricular activities. As always it was a very difficult task to choose a successful candidate due the the very high standard all these young people have set for themselves in their academic and extra curricular lives. This year we were able to share the total award between eight very worthy recipients as follows:
