KOS would like your
help in finding a Kentucky student who is interested in birds and who might
want to attend an American Birding Association
camp this summer. The Kentucky
Ornithological Society (KOS) has established a scholarship to honor Virginia and
Wendell Kingsolver for their service to KOS
and birding and their commitment to encouraging young people to learn about and
appreciate the natural world.
Details about the scholarship
and the ABA camps can be found on the KOS website
(http://biology.eku.edu/kos/default.htm ).
The scholarship is open to students between the ages of 13 and 18 who live in
Kentucky. In 2014, one student will be chosen to attend
a week-long ABA camp in either Colorado
or Delaware. The scholarship will cover all expenses for the week-long camp,
however
travel to Colorado or Delaware will be the recipient's responsibility.
If you know of a boy or girl with
an interest in birds and ornithology who is mature enough to travel to
Colorado or Delaware on his/her own, please encourage them to apply
before May 15, 2014. Attending
this camp could be just the spark needed to turn their interest into a
passion
or even a career. It will most certainly be a memorable experience.
If you have questions after
reading the application, please contact me at this email address.
Thank you,
Carol Besse
Kentucky Ornithological Society
