Apply Now For NBLA Scholarship

The Newtown Bridle Lands Association, Inc Memorial Scholarship, in memory of Linda Souza, a respected NBLA member who died in 2002, is open to seniors at Newtown High School or the Ellis Clark Regional Agri-Science and Technical Center in Woodbury. Applicants whose parent or guardian is a member of the NBLA may also apply. Applicants must be accepted to the school of their choice with a major in the field of agricultural or environmental studies, involved in extracurricular activities, and write an essay explaining why they most deserve the scholarship.

This past May, the $500 memorial scholarship was presented to its first-ever recipient, Lindsay Hudson-Tolles. An award-winning member of 4-H for 12 years and past president of her section of Pineview Horsemen 4H in Oxford, Ms Hudson-Tolles is currently attending Virginia Intermont College with a major in equine science.
