The W.C. Fair Board implemented a Scholarship Program in 2013, which was open to high school seniors and then current college freshmen. In 2014, and going forward, scholarships are available to existing high school seniors only. As stated by Chairman, Rogers Anderson, this program was established because "it is important for our youth to realize the value of being involved in their community, and providing some scholarship funds as a token of appreciation for their involvement with the fair is one way we can acknowledge their service and show how much we appreciate them". The Scholarship Committee received six (6) applications and unanimously agreed to award funding to each applicant for the 2013 inaugural process. $7,800 in scholarships were awarded to the Williamson County students.
