Summer Camp Scholarships Available

Did you know you can apply for a scholarship to help fund summer camp at Lake Erie Nature & Science Center? The Cleveland Clean Air Century Campaign established the Rev. Marvin J. Smith Memorial Scholarship Fund for Youth to assist young people, ages 5 to 17 years old, who wish to attend a camp, class or workshop with an emphasis on the environment. Scholarship awards vary, up to $100, and depend on the program cost.

Youth scholarship selection "is not based on financial need but on level of interest shown in environmental topics through schoolwork extracurricular activities, hobbies, or volunteer activities." The applicant is responsible for finding the program for which they want scholarship assistance. You can research a camp or class at Lake Erie Nature & Science Center on our website or download a copy of our Summer Program Guide (pdf) here.

Then, print out the Scholarship Application and Guidelines (pdf) and apply today!
