I have been assigned the responsibility of developing criteria for NJBA to provide scholarships for beekeepers. Mostly for new beeks, but anything is on table. Soo,, what criteria do you think is important for awarding a scholarship?How would you set-up program?
i'd go for younger kids. FFA or 4H. also, maybe, a geezer scholarship? seems many start beekeeping later in life, but funds could be an issue. is the scholarship to encourage beekeeping, or to encourage learning?
is the scholarship to encourage beekeeping, or to encourage learning?
The parameters haven't been set yet. Mostly, to get new people involved, and educated. Everything is on table. Two scholorships initially.
Hold on... You need a degree to keep bees?No wonder I've been having so many problems. ;)
