One of the most important activities of the Club is our annual scholarship program for area students. 

The Abilene A&M Club currently supports twelve (12) Abilene area students with two-year scholarships of $500 per semester. 

The Abilene A&M Club raises funds for these scholarships by selling  French fries at the annual West Texas Fair & Rodeo, held in September. Thanks to an exclusive arrangement granted by the Fair Committee, the Club is the only provider of French fries at the Fair. Each year, we purchase over 13,000 pounds of potatoes that are cut and fried into our famous Aggie French Fries. 

Over 100 individuals (Aggie and non-Aggie) volunteer their time each year in our fund raising effort. Thousands and thousands of fair-goers are treated to fresh, hot and piled-high Aggie French Fries.
