Annual Scholarship
The East Troy Area Chamber of Commerce has established a $500 Scholarship, which is presented annually to an East Troy High School graduating senior planning to attend Gateway Technical College in Elkhorn or the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. In addition to the standard scholarship application provided by the high school, applicants are required to write an essay with the topic "How growing up in East Troy has influenced your life." The East Troy Area Chamber of Commerce Scholarship Committee selects finalists from all qualified applicants and makes their final selection after conducting interviews.
