Subject: [Plsugs] Briggs Memorial Scholarship

On behalf of the International Plant Propagators' Society Western Region, I would like to inform you of a unique opportunity for horticulture students to attend our annual meeting with the help of the Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship.  The International Plant Propagators' Society (IPPS) Western Region awards the Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship to deserving students in agriculture and horticulture educational programs.
This scholarship is given each year to college and/or university students who are studying plant
propagation and demonstrate a strong interest in pursuing propagation as a career. The
scholarship pays for students to attend the annual International Plant Propagators' Society
meeting held in the Western Region. Both the registration fee (includes most meals) and shared accommodations are covered by the scholarship.Travel costs are the responsibility of the scholarship recipient. This year the meeting will be held at theCourtyard King Kamehameha Kona Beach, Kona, Hawaii from July 31-August 4, 2018.

The annual meeting gives the students the opportunity to hear presentations on various areas of plant propagation and network with industry professionals. A tour of nursery propagation facilities and affiliated businesses is an integral part of the scheduled activities. An added benefit of the award is a one-year student membership to IPPS. Previous scholarship recipients are not eligible for a second scholarship.

The deadline to apply for the Bruce Briggs Memorial Scholarship isApril 15th, 2018.  More information about IPPS and an application form can be downloaded from the IPPS website at:http://www.ipps.org/ .
