MARCH 2011

The NSDTR Club of Canada (NSDTRCC) has created a NEW Junior Scholarship program to promote interest in our breed by young people and to encourage Juniors to participate in activities with their Tollers.
Two scholarship awards of $500 each will be given away biennially in the year of a National Specialty, and at the National Specialty banquet where possible, to two successful candidates.

The applicant must be:

• a Canadian Junior Member of the NSDTRCC;
• a member of the NSDTRCC for at least 12 months previous to application; and
• not more than 20 years of age on December 31 of the year of the award.

The applicant will write and submit a 1000 word essay describing the following:

• the significance now and in the future of having a Toller(s) in their lives;
• the activities they have been involved in with their Toller(s); and
• what they have done and what they plan to do to promote the breed to their community.

The essay will be accompanied by a completed application form and will be submitted to the NSDTRCC Secretary no later than midnight, March 31st of the award year. The essays will be judged by the executive of the day and the Scholarships will be awarded based on the merits of the essay and not necessarily on actual ribbons and titles earned. The purpose is to encourage Juniors to participate in activities with their Tollers and not to judge Juniors solely on their success in competition.
All submitted essays will be published in Toller Talk.
