Tomorrow River Scouting Scholarship

The Scouts BSA Troop 296 and Pack 296 have been in existence for over 40 years serving the needs of approximately 50 young people, predominately in the Tomorrow River area. Based in Amherst, the Troop and Pack endowed their scholarship in 2020.

The scholarship is now awarded annually to a person who participated in the Troop or Pack for four or more years and is continuing their education at a university, or technical/vocational school. To be eligible an individual must also write an essay on how scouting has influenced one’s life and the lives of others.

In addition, a “C” average and leadership activity within the organization are looked upon for selection of the recipient.
