Wyoming State Legislative Board
The BLET’s Wyoming State Legislative Board (WYSLB) is again offering a scholarship program for the upcoming school year. First offered for the 2014 academic year, the scholarship deadline for 2020 is June 1, 2020.
Wyoming State Legislative Board Chairman Cory Runion said the Board will award either two $1,000 scholarships, or, in the event of a single applicant, one $1,000 scholarship each year to an immediate family member of a BLET member in good standing and holding membership in a Division chartered within the state of Wyoming. The scholarships will be awarded based on the application, along with the requested documentation, by the WYSLB scholarship committee.
Scholarship applications and all accompanying documents must be received by June 1 of each year. Specific eligibility requirements, detailed instructions and application forms (PDF) are available for download from the BLET National Division website, or can be requested from your Division Legislative Representative. Currently, the BLET has nine Divisions chartered in Wyoming — Division 31 (Bill); Division 207 (Casper); Divisions 44, 103 and 115 (Cheyenne); Division 94 (Gillette); Division 869 (Greybull); Division 142 (Rawlins); and Division 624 (Sheridan).
Due to unforeseen circumstances there will be a couple of
adjustments to this years scholarship application. At this time it may
be difficult to get an official transcript from a school or university,
therefore, an official or unofficial transcript will be accepted for
this years application. Your local division Secretary-Treasurer's
signature is best for verification of member status, but in compliance
to social distancing your Div. ST signature will not be a requirement.
In the event that you are unable to get a signature, a copy of email
verication from your Div. ST, along with their phone number and email
address, will be accepted. The current scholarship application will
still be used, just fill it out allowing for the adjustments stated.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. We understand this is
a trying time for all of us and the WYSLB hopes to continue to encourage
applicants to apply for this scholarship.
Stay safe and healthy,
Respectfully,
Cory L. Runion
WYSLB & Reg.4 Chairman
