Scholarship and grant are awarded on a rolling basis until funds for the season are depleted. Summit will provide up to $75* per snow sport lesson, maximum of three lessons per individual in award amounts. Individuals will be responsible for the remainder.

If there are additional funds available after the first round we will open applications again.
