This annual conference offers at least one Colorado high school junior the chance to attend an all-expenses-paid conference during June, at the Newseum in Washington, D.C., along with a $1,000 college scholarship.

Outstanding junior year student journalists should apply online and the application deadline is Feb. 1.

This is an incredible opportunity for a total of 51 students from across the country. A number of Colorado students have participated in this program in past years, and CSMA is delighted to recommend it to everyone.
