About This Scholarship

The Chick and Sophie Major Memorial Duck Calling Contest is an annual scholarship competition held in Stuttgart, Arkansas. The contest is open to high school seniors who are legal residents of the United States and who have been accepted into a college, university, or trade school.

The scholarship awards vary in amount, but typically range from $500 to $2,000. The scholarship funds can be used for tuition, fees, textbooks, or other related educational expenses. In addition to the scholarship award, the winners of the contest will also receive a custom-made duck call.

The Chick and Sophie Major Memorial Duck Calling Contest was established in 1974 in memory of Chick and Sophie Major, two prominent members of the Stuttgart community who were avid duck hunters and conservationists. The contest is designed to promote the sport of duck calling and to support the education of young people who are interested in pursuing careers in wildlife management, conservation, or related fields.
