The CSSRA Bursary Fund is set up to provide financial assistance to Canadian athletes attending the regatta from outside an 800 kilometre radius. The bursary is a token amount given to assist with travel costs such as transportation and accommodation. Any profit made from the regatta is channeled into the Bursary Fund.
Additional funds for the bursary come from any sponsors of the regatta and from the past generous donations of Mr. Doug Wells of Toronto, a founder of our organization. We also receive funds for the bursary from Rowing Canada Aviron, the St. Catharines Rowing Alumni Association.
Qualifications are as follows:
Up to a maximum of cdn$100 per athlete will be paid - subject to change;
Funds will be paid upon arrival in St. Catharines at the CSSRA Championships;
The total amount funded will be determined by the number of approved athletes that register for the regatta;
The deadline for applications is April 30th of the regatta year;
Successful applicants will be notified by May 10th of the regatta year;
Assistance is limited to Canadian schools;
An athlete is eligible to apply for assistance every year but at a pro-rated basis.
Inquiries and applications should be sent to Cesare Marchese, 14 Countryside Dr. St. Catharines, Ontario L2W 1C3. Email inquiries may be sent to: cesare@vaxxine.com
