Eaglecrest Ski Area is now accepting applications for its annual Hilary Lindh Scholarship. Four K-12 student applicants chosen by the selection committee will receive a 2016-17 season pass to Eaglecrest.
The selection committee will judge applicants based on three main criteria: scholastic achievement, competitive spirit and financial need. All Juneau area students are eligible to apply within the four divisions: boys kindergarten through fifth grade, girls kindergarten through fifth grade, boys sixth through 12th grade and girls sixth through 12th grade. Recipients will be announced Dec. 19 online and in the Eaglecrest newsletter.
Applications are available online at skijuneau.com/lindh.php and will be accepted until noon Dec. 12. Applicants are asked to answer four short essay questions related to goal-setting, achievement and inspiration.
Hilary Lindh was a world champion downhill skier who trained on Eaglecrest's slopes during her youth days. In her career, Linh won three world cups, a youth world cup and a silver Olympic medal. She was accepted into the U.S. Ski Hall of Fame in 2006 and the Alaska Sports Hall of Fame in 2009.
