Applications open for Timaru North Rotary Art Scholarship - 2019
President Harley Smithson advises application can now be received for club's annual art scholarship. This is to help with tertiary education costs for 17-25 year-old students studying arts. They must be NZ citizens living in South Canterbury at the time of application.
“The fund was kicked-started with a donation of art work by renowned and once-resident artist, Clark Esplin. One painting was raffled and others were auctioned in November 2017.” Says Harley.
$2000 has been allocated for this next round. Upon agreement, this can be used towards course fees and related material costs incurred during 2018.
The successful applicant must be prepared to report formally to the club and agree to publicity.
An application form with criteria is downloadable from artscholarship.rotarytimnth.nz. Applications close 5:00pm 18th January 2018, and will be considered by the club committee.

500 native grasses, shrubs and trees were planted at the Otipua Wetlands on an incredibly nice morning. Eight from the Boy's Brigade 3rd Timaru, with leaders Fiona Blisset and Chris Kronings, joined 16 Club members making short work of the task.. Also digging in was Jim Garden of the Timaru Rotary Club. This project follows a Rotary International initiative, planting 12 million trees world wide.
