The Medina County Bar Association has announced its 2025 Law Day Scholarship essay contest and this year’s theme is: “The Constitution’s Promise: Out of Many, One.”

The competition aims to foster understanding and appreciation of the Constitution’s role in uniting a diverse nation while guaranteeing individual rights and liberties.
