NYSOWA’s Bob McNitt Memorial Scholarship Program
• The New York State Outdoor Writers Association (NYSOWA) proudly awards youths in New York through the Bob McNitt Memorial Scholarship program. NYSOWA’s entire membership contributes to this fund that annually awards a $1,000 scholarship to a college student enrolled in a curriculum related to journalism, outdoors or the environment.
• NYSOWA sponsors two youth ges 11-17 to attend one week sessions at one of four DEC Summer camps where they are sure to enjoy memorable outdoor experiences.
• Since 2021, NYSOWA has sent a member, spouse or NYSOWA member relative to DEC’s Becoming an Outdoors Woman Workshop. We also make a donation to the program to help sponsor attendees who need financial assistance.
