View Full Version : SSA scholarship news (USA)


September 22nd 05, 06:28 AM
"Cadet" pre-solo scholarship grants were recently awarded to Aaron
Archer(IA) at Silent Knights and Trevor Munson (CAP cadet, CO) at Mile
High Gliding. Lynn Haubelt (TX) was our Bultman award line-crew
exemplar. Contest Training matching fund grants went to Sarah Kelly
(TN) and Orion Kingman (AZ). Congratulations to all.

September 30 is the application deadline for the Kolstad college
scholarship, for which minimum eligibility is an FAI Silver badge or an
SSA Kolstad Century I (100km) award. The Badge Lady tells us of many
badge claims this summer, and advanced youth soaring has been nicely
spurred by 2 seasons of US Team Junior camps, so we hope for many
entries with more US citizen SSA member pilots through age 20 having
earned credentials towards this competitive award. A reminder that the
application package needs to include an applicant narrative and 3
nomination letters. See http://home.att.net/~midlk/klsthmpg.htm
