Scholarship Available to Attend IGHR

Earlier today I posted an announcement about a Scholarship Available to Attend the Salt Lake Institute of Genealogy. My friend Deena Coutant reminded me that there is also a scholarship available to attend the Institute of Genealogy and Historical Research (IGHR) at Samford University. The scholarship is through the Birdie Monk Holsclaw Memorial Fund.  The deadline is October 1st, so there is just a short time to apply, but the application process is very simple. For more info see the Colorado Council of Genealogical Societies webpage at http://cocouncil.org/awards.html#Holsclaw

Birdie Monk Holsclaw Memorial Scholarship

This is a great way to enhance your education and attend IGHR. The 2014 course offerings are listed here.
