Reaching out to our Communities:
We are excitedly anticipating the 2017 SME Golf Extravaganza and look forward to seeing you at the tournament.  The funds raised from this tournament will help further educate students, communities and elected officials about the roles of the aggregates and phosphate industries.  We are working hard to make this happen.  Below are some of the contributions made by SME and MEC in the past year.

• 26 awards were presented to Junior and Senior High Science Fair participants in Hardee, Hillsborough, DeSoto and Polk Counties with an additional 3 awards presented to top mining-related projects.
• 6 special awards presented at the Florida State Science Fair.
  
• Ten $1,000 academic scholarships were awarded to college-bound graduates of Desoto and Polk Counties pursuing a degree in engineering, science or mathematics.
• Supplied backboards and display materials to Hardee, Polk and Desoto County Junior and Senior High School Science Fair participants.
• Printed and distributed to elementary students over 5,000 copies of the pro-mining message workbook "Mining Rocks".
• Awarded one $3,000 David Gossett Memorial Scholarship to a top mining co-op student working at a Florida mine.
