EAA493 Mailing List: EAA Chapter 493 Scholarship Fund for 2014 and 2015

[donald (donald]

Regarding the tabled motion for scholarship funds from the June meeting:
I have talked to Pierce Marschall at length since the last meeting. He has been 
uncomfortable applying for his scholarship funds since he feels there are other 
pilots who may need the funds more than he does. I assured him that there will 
always be people with needs lesser and greater than his. But it was the 
decision of the chapter that he was the person we wanted to support last year 
and he should abide by the chapter's wisdom in picking him for the scholarship. 
He has sent to our treasurer, Dave Dierker, a receipt for ground school in Ft. 
Worth at American Flyers for an amount above $500. Therefore, the scholarship 
funds from last year have been applied for and are no longer available. 

I have not heard what our balance is after paying last year's scholarship, but 
we have so few expenses I think we could afford to increase the scholarship to 
$1000 for 2015. The additional $500 would amount to less than $17 from each of 
us based on a membership of thirty people. 

You are welcome to discuss this matter by replying to this email.

Below is an email from Gerry Hatch to Don Treadwell.  A motion was 
made and seconded at the June meeting to present the scholarship funds 
to Kyle Spinks.  The motion was tabled so we could send the attached 
information to all EAA493 members.  This should be and old business item 
at the July meeting.

==========================================================================================


I would like to cast my vote to present both this year's scholarship 
funds and last years scholarship funds to Kyle Spinks for his pursuit of 
an Aerospace Engineering Degree at Texas A & M. Kyle is a very 
impressive young man. And, an Eagle Scout to boot,not to mention George 
and Martha Spinks's oldest grandson. Thanks you for being EAA 493's 
President. Gerry
