The Shiner Chamber of Commerce is proud to introduce the Shiner Chamber of Commerce Youth Action
Team (YAT) program. This program encourages students to (9th -12th Grade for the 2023 – 2024 school
year) to experience hands-on participation in community events sponsored by the Shiner Chamber of
Commerce.

Each student that chooses to participate will receive credit towards the eligibility of a scholarship in their
senior year. This will be a calendar year opportunity that begins every January and continues through
December. Students are responsible for downloading the YAT application from our website and keeping
documentation of the hours they have volunteered at any Chamber of Commerce event. Students are
asked to check back for the dates and times of these volunteer opportunities as events occur. The
Chamber hosts several events that bring our community together and highlight our chamber members
and their businesses.

As students complete their hours for the program, the accumulated hours will be considered when
applying for the Shiner Chamber of Commerce Scholarship that is available when they are a senior. If
you have any questions or concerns, please contact the Shiner Chamber of Commerce

The Shiner Chamber of Commerce sponsors scholarship opportunity for Seniors that reside in the Shiner Independent School District. Attached you will find the qualifications and application. This scholarship opportunity acknowledges all youth who choose to participate and learn about civic responsibilities through the Shiner Chamber of Commerce. The scholarship recipients will be announced in late spring and honored with a scholarship recipient dinner.

We look forward to working with the youth of Shiner to build a better community!
