Annapolis Heritage Society/David Armstrong
Memorial Scholarship
2008

The Annapolis Heritage Society is pleased to convey the following information regarding the provision of a scholarship for post-secondary study in the field of history or history related studies to a deserving 2008 graduating student at the Annapolis West Education Centre, Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia.

  • The Annapolis Heritage Society will award a scholarship of $1000 to a deserving student of the current graduating class of the Annapolis West Education Centre, which serves Annapolis Royal and Townships (Annapolis, Clements and Granville), who is planning to further his or her studies at the post secondary level in history or a history related field.
  • The scholarship selection committee at the high school may propose candidate choices based on sound academic performance or students may apply directly to AHS by forwarding their application to the address below. There will be one scholarship awarded.
  • Applicants will be required to submit to the Annapolis Heritage Society Education Committee a one page proposal on one of the following topics:
  1. A detailed plan for a class field trip to one of the AHS sites, i.e., the O’Dell Museum, the Sinclair Inn or North Hills as part of history curriculum

    or

  2. A plan for an event to be held at one of the above sites, the goal of which is to attract visitors to the museum and thus increase number of visitations and heighten public awareness and interest in built heritage.

The proposal should demonstrate both background knowledge of the museums and creativity, and be of practical use.

For help in developing the plan, candidates may contact the society to request a mentor:

Dr. Niki Clark, archeologist, 532-0871 or
Ryan Scranton, Executive Director, 532-7754

- Applicants may want to visit the O’Dell House Museum for a tour.

- Applicants are also asked to complete the attached page, “Tell Us About Yourself”.

- The application should be submitted by the student candidate either through the school’s teacher selection committee (that will then submit it to the Annapolis Heritage Education committee) or dropped at or mailed directly to the AHS office in the O’Dell House Museum, P.O. Box 503,136 Saint George Street, Annapolis Royal, NS, B0S 1A0. The applicant’s name and address should appear on the envelope but not on the proposal or biography sheets. The AHS Education and Outreach Committee will make the final decision and notify the school of the successful proposal.
