Singing for Scholarships

50th Annual National Shrimp Festival is Helping Baldwin High Schools

Since 2013, Singing for Scholarships has awarded Baldwin County High
School students and winning schools a combined total of over $35,000.

This year, on Saturday, October 14th, students will once again compete for up to $1,000 cash for their talents and skills during the 50th Annual National Shrimp Festival.

The singing competition will feature one student per school chosen to represent their respective Baldwin County high school (including City School, private school, and home-schooled students). Each high school conducts its own contest.
Scholarships are awarded to the top three participants as well as to each of their high schools. Contestants must be enrolled in ANY Baldwin County High School program through October 14, 2023, to be eligible to compete. Contestants are NOT required to be enrolled in a music or choir program to be eligible to compete.

Scholarships up for grabs:

  • 1st Place: $1000 to student & $500 to school
  • 2nd Place: $500 to student & $500 to school
  • 3rd Place: $250 to student & $500 to school


Here’s your chance to encourage those high school singers in your life to set themselves apart from others. Talk to your schools, teachers, guidance counselors, music, and band directors to get their attention about this competition.

"I believe in these students and want them to showcase their talents to as many as possible. For some, this is their first time on a large stage."  -Singing for Scholarships chairman, Allison Pryor
