Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat Scholarship Application 2023
Thank you for your interest in attending our 2023 Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat this September 26-28 at Pocahontas State Park! See our Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat webpage for directions, lodging options, the full agenda, field trips & workshops, and more: https://vcnva.org/annual-meeting-and-partner-retreat/. 

This year, we are offering a limited number of scholarships for individuals in need of financial assistance to attend our Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat. This scholarship opportunity is prioritized for organizations with smaller budgets; individuals from diverse backgrounds; and students, fellows, or interns in our Network. 

We will select scholarship recipients based upon financial need, commitment to diversity, and/or previous attendance to VCN Network Partner events. All recipients are asked to volunteer during the Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat (e.g. help with registration, field trip/workshop assistant, cleaning up, managing the campfire, social media, etc.).

Scholarship Recipient Expectations:
  • Provide your own transportation to and from the park.
  • Volunteer for approximately ~2 hours throughout the Annual Meeting & Partner Retreat.
  • Arrive promptly for all volunteer assignments and check-in with designated VCN Staff upon arrival.
Applications are due by midnight on Thursday, August 31st. For questions, please contact Andreana J. Lin at andreana@vcnva.org.
