Rainier Lions Club Volunteer Projects form 2012 - 2013


Rainier High School Students:  The Rainier Lion’s Club is offering an opportunity for Seniors to compete for a scholarship, awarded in May 2013, which will be $1,000.00.  This will introduce you to the Rainier Lion’s Club and how they make a difference in the Rainier Community through volunteerism.   

One completed fundraising project (the student must complete all phases of the project, as listed below) AND one community service project, which are designated below, are required to be eligible for the Scholarship (the student must demonstrate an ongoing interest in community service).  Below please mark the projects you are willing to volunteer for and return to Bonnie Zimmerman, Registrar, Rainier High School by November 2, 2012 with the Scholarship Application (Seniors only)(If for some reason you are unable to assist with these projects or do not do the work, you will not receive the credit—the Lions reserve the right to determine this.)   The Rainier Lions will contact you about the date and requirements for the projects.   Seniors competing for the Scholarship, must complete the required projects by April 30, 2012.
Note:  Freshmen through Juniors may volunteer by completing this form and submitting to Bonnie Zimmerman, Registrar, and apply these projects to the Lion’s scholarship service requirement when you apply your Senior year, please DO NOT submit the Scholarship Application or any other application requirements until your Senior year.
