Grote, Spader and Miscellaneous Archives
Beginning in 2005, Auxiliary investments that supported scholarships and awards were transferred to Angus Foundation accounts. There are a number of scholarships that have since been established directly through the Foundation. The Pat Grote awards and the Spader awards were originated before the transfer of funds through the Foundation.
Pat Grote Award
(Originally known as the Pat Grote Belt Buckle Award. Rattey sculptures have replaced belt buckles.) The winner of the intermediate division of the extemporaneous speaking contest at the NJAS also wins this award. Starting in 2006 the intermediate division was split into two age groups and resulted in two awards.
