Default NARAM travel grant--free money!

An opportunity to take a big bite out of your NARAM travel costs, as just announced by Trip Barber, NAR president:

"NAR travel funding grants of up to $800 each are available for up to five B Division (age 14-17) first-time competitors at NARAM-53. Young NAR members who want to attend their first NARAM under this program must apply to Joyce Guzik, NAR Trustee. The deadline for receipt of these packages has been extended to June 25. The application package is attached."

That is really great....gonna make some youngster's dreams come true! I always dreamed of going to a NARAM as a kid, but was unable to for these very reasons (funding). Didn't make it to one until 1988.

Never can tell what kind of impression and 'life change' that can be on a kid at that age. May be the difference between a ho-hum teenage outlook and an outlook towards some real life goals.
