The Jerry Hope Endowment Scholarship has been funded to our goal. The scholarship includes all of the AWS sections in District 19. which includes the AWS sections in Washington, Oregon, Alaska, British Columbia, & Alberta. It is an en-dowment scholarship fund that has about $52,000 in it. The endowment fund will perpetuate interest income to provide about $2500 per year. Priority is given to students seeking a welding engineering degree or welders seeking a welding related engineering degree. If no students are seeking a welding engineering or related engineering degree, the funds will rotate between sections each year to fund local 2-year welding technology students.
The Puget Sound Section still has a need for scholarship fund donations for local welding technology students. Last year we gave out $6,000 in scholarship funds and we have given out $1500 so far this year (June 1 to May 31). For anyone who would like to donate to our scholarship fund, please send a check to the "AWS Puget Sound Section" PO Box 2923, Everett, WA 98213. For students, please contact Steve Nielsen at "[email protected]" to get a scholarship ap-plication. The application is also available at our Sections website located within the "Scholarship Application Informa-
" website. 100% of all scholarship donations go to student scholarships. Implementation of the program is all done by local AWS volunteers.

Important Update about Section Dinners
The AWS Puget Sound Section board recently voted to raise the dinner cost for meetings to $40 for regular attendees and $20 for students. As most of the meeting attendees know, the Rock Salt Steakhouse closed. It may be reopening in the future, but at this time we do not know. In the last three months, we have tried sev-eral locations for our meetings. Each of the locations we tried works great for a meeting, but the cost is sig-nificantly greater than the cost we were paying at the Rock Salt. The Section has had a large deficit cost of several hundred dollars at each of the last three meetings. We simply cannot afford continue to subsidize the meeting costs to that extent. However, the Section will continue to subsidize the student meals. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.
