Name
The Skulls for Scholars Scholarship.

History
The Smokin Guns MC is a Law Enforcement, family, and community focused motorcycle club that was founded in June of 2011 as a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation in the state of Colorado. We are made up of active and retired State, Local, and Federal Law Enforcement Officers. We also have a membership of individuals that share the same core values as Law Enforcement Officers. We require that all of our members conduct themselves as respectable members of our society and expect every member of our club to act with Integrity, Honesty, and Respect; the same standard expected of Law Enforcement Officers. We exist to help fellow LEO's and their families in times of need. We also support the community that we have sworn to protect and are here to help those who are not able to help themselves.
In 2012 we established the Skulls for Scholars Scholarship for students interested in pursuing a career in Law Enforcement or Criminal Justice and in an effort to raise money for this scholarship, we host an annual motorcycle run.
