REMINDER: THE JOHN PEAVEY LEGACY FUND STUDENT SCHO REMINDER: THE JOHN PEAVEY LEGACY FUND STUDENT SCHOLARSHIP 2025

The Trailing of the Sheep Festival is pleased to remind everyone that we have launched the inaugural year of distribution of an annual scholarship in honor of John Peavey. With an application due date of May 31, 2025, the recipient of this scholarship will be awarded $500.00 for the 2025-2026 academic year. The recipient may use the funds for college or trade school related expenses including tuition, fees, housing, and books while pursuing a degree or certificate in the field of Agriculture. 

An icon of the Sun Valley community, John actively kept up his work and fostered his passions until his passing in June of 2024, at the age of 90. While he had many impressive achievements throughout his life - as a family man, rancher, national agricultural advocate, and Idaho State Senator - the Trailing of the Sheep Festival was very special to him as it allowed him to share his love of the sheep, the land, and his many stories which helped educate and inspire both local residents and visitors from around the world. 

We encourage any qualified student to apply and feel free to forward this to anyone who might be interested. We look forward to announcing the scholarship winner later this summer!
