RWS Scholarship Program u Tips/Project Plans u Project for Charity
The RWS has started an Education Fund, intended primarily for our new Woodworkers Scholarship Program.
The program will grant up to $1000 to an applicant — must be an RWS member for at least one year — to help defray the cost of a course at an approved woodworking school.
Applications must be in by January 1st of each year. Consideration will be given to the applicant's skill level, likelihood of enhancing his/her expertise, as well as the practicality/reasonableness of the proposed woodworking course. By February 15th, a Scholarship Committee will select the award recipient. Upon completion of the course, recipients will be expected to share their experiences in either a newsletter article or at a workshop or SIG meeting.
We hope some of you take advantage of this opportunity. In the future, we hope to extend the program to include students in area schools, to help our youth expand their woodworking skills and join us as RWS members.
For a list of woodworking schools and other program details, you can download the Scholarship Application. You may also contact George Harvey at 585-624-1981 or edu
