The Brookline Bird Club will again offer two Bill Drummond Young
Birder’s Scholarships to nurture interest in bird study and conservation
among young birders. The 2025 scholarships will cover the full cost
($1,725) of the Coastal Maine Bird Studies for Teens program at National
Audubon’s Hog Island camp on JUNE 15-20, 2025. **The cost includes
housing, boat travel, and all meals. Scholarship recipients will be
responsible for transportation costs to and from the camp.
Applicants must be New England residents, ages 14-17 as of June 1, 2025,
and must submit a written application and two letters of reference.
Preference will be given to applicants with individual or family BBC
memberships. To be considered a member, an applicant may join the club
at the time of application. A youth membership for one year is $10.
All completed applications and references must be received by the BBC
scholarship committee by FEBRUARY 17, 2025. Selection and notification
of recipients will be completed by MARCH 12, 2025. For instructions and
