NSHGC Junior Participation and Scholarship Fund

 

The purpose of the North Star Herding Group Club Junior Showmanship fund is to help fund expenses of junior members of our club (age 9-18) who exhibit dogs in AKC dog events through stipends and scholarships.  AN annual secondary education scholarship may be offered to one deserving junior per year.  This fund is geared to benefit junior members who participate in ALL venues of AKC dog showing open to herding breeds of dogs. 

Junior members must be active members in the club.  They must attend at least 2 meetings per year and participate in club functions. Juniors must demonstrate a "C" average and acceptable attendance in school.  Juniors with poor attendance in school do not show a commitment to school and will not be considered for scholarships or stipends that may be paid for time spent away from school. 

The Junior Participation Committee determines criteria for dispersing funds to individuals.  Juniors will be eligible for one $200 stipend to attend such important shows as National Specialties, , Westminster, and other same important events.  Proof that the junior has participated is necessary to access money from the fund. 

Scholarships for secondary education candidates may be offered once a year if the fund has the money to offer a scholarship and there is a candidate that year.  Scholarship money will be paid directly to the school and not the scholarship winner. 

The application below must be completed and submitted in order to be considered for the Junior Participation Program.
