The family of the late Bill Supernaugh has established a scholarship fund through ANPR in Bill’s memory to help several people attend their first Ranger Rendezvous.

The purpose of the William Supernaugh Rendezvous Scholarship Fund is to allow others to experience the annual Rendezvous that Bill enjoyed so much, and also learn about ANPR. The eligibility criteria are:

1. Never attended a Ranger Rendezvous
2. Currently an NPS employee (permanent or seasonal) or an ANPR member
3. Able to attend the full week of the Rendezvous (Dec. 10-14 in Santa Fe)

What recipients get:
1. Registration fees
2. Cost of hotel room
3. Actual transportation costs not to exceed $500
4. One-year membership in ANPR if not already a member

How to apply:
1. Nominated by a current member of ANPR or
2. Self-nomination

All nominations must include:
1. Name
2. Current park or office
3. Contact address and phone number
4. A brief written description on why the nominee would like to attend a Ranger Rendezvous and what contribution s/he could make to ANPR (e.g., this employee has great organizational skills, always willing to help out with any project)

Nominations are due no later than Oct. 10. Use the online form (link below) or mail a paper copy of the nomination form to:
ANPR Business Office, 25958 Genesee Trail Road, PMB 222, Golden, CO 80401

The ANPR Board of Directors will make the selection of recipients.

At least one scholarship will be awarded, possibly more. Pass the word at your park about this opportunity. Nominate yourself — or start thinking about someone you want to nominate.

If you've thought about attending a Rendezvous but didn't think you could afford it, now is your chance to get some financial help. Apply now.
