The Minnesota Bonsai Society is excited to offer the 2021 Mark Youngdale Educational Scholarship. On Saturday, August 22, 2020, MBS hosted a benefit for former MBS member Mark Youngsdale. MBS members donated money for bonsai items that were donated by Mark’s widow, Linda Youngsdale, and former MBS member Jeff Aldridge. In return for this gracious donation, Linda wanted proceeds to benefit the continuing education mission of MBS.
Scholarships created from these funds will be open to MBS active members who seek to increase their bonsai craft by attending an MBS workshop(s), training provided by MBS, or a convention elsewhere. The scholarship recipient will then share their experience and new knowledge with the club with a presentation via an article and/or discussion at one of the club’s general meetings.
A minimum of three board members, voted into office the year scholarships are awarded, will choose the scholarship winners. There will be four $250 scholarships awarded and the recipient(s) will have two years from the award date to use the scholarship. MBS members wishing to apply for this scholarship will complete an application.
Contact MBS Workshop Chair, David Weiss with any questions at mbsorg.vp2@gmail.com
General Scholarship Information:
