Scholarship Opportunities
Congratulations to Maria Audin, our 2011 Scholarship winner. Maria will be attending Gaucher College in Baltimore, Maryland and will be earning her masters degree in historic preservation.
Each year, the Historical Society of Newburgh Bay and the Highlands solicits applications for its annual $1000 Carla Decker Scholarship. This college scholarship is given to an outstanding scholar interested in history or historical preservation, archeology, anthropology, or information services.
The applicant should show an interest in the history of the area and should demonstrate this interest through participation in activities that relate to the history of the area. We would like the scholarship to encourage young people to be active participants in learning about and preserving our historical heritage.
Please watch this site for deadline information for next year.
