The BHSA is pleased to announce that we will be offering an academic scholarship program for all high school seniors who are current BHSA members and who have been accepted to a two or four year college program for the current show year. One to three scholarships will be awarded in the amount of $500.00 each based on the strength and number of applications as well as the funds available for the program.
Although this is an academic scholarship, some emphasis will be placed on riding and horses through the essay that each applicant will write.
The BHSA Board of Directors is proud to announce
Makayla Darkow & Kristina Sanders
are the 2025 recipients of $500 BHSA Academic Scholarships.
Makayla will attend Alfred State College & Kristina will attend James Madison University.
Congratulations Ladies and best of luck in your academic endeavors!
