Jasmin Gates Scholarship

Cypress School of Skating is thrilled to announce the "Jaz Gates Scholarship"!  As many of you know her, it was named to honor Jasmin Gates, who embodies the spirit of kindness, positivity, and community that we cherish at Cypress School of Skating.  Jasmin promoted a positive club morale.  She was always supportive of her fellow team members and celebrated all their successes.  She attracted skaters to the club due to her positive attitude and caring demeanour.  We are looking for individuals who carry on that positive impact she had on the club and club members.

This scholarship is designed to recognize and support a skater who exemplifies the same positive club morale that Jasmin inspired within our community.  The selected recipient will receive a $500 credit on their account to be used for that fiscal year (September 1st through August 31st).  The credit can be put towards session costs, team apparel or other CSOS expenses such as workshops or camps.  If the credit is not used within that skating season, it will not be carried forward into the next season.  The credit may be gifted to another skater as long as they are a skater in good standing.

Applications will open on September 1st of each year. and close by March 1st of the following year.  The recipient will be  announced at the annual awards banquet.

How to Apply:
Applicants are encouraged to submit a 250-word essay explaining why they believe they deserve the Jaz Gates Scholarship. Nominators are also encouraged to submit 250 words highlighting why the nominee should receive the scholarship.  Letters of recommendation may be included along with submissions.  Any skater may apply, however recipients will be chosen based on financial need and those that bring a positive influence to the CSOS club members.  Demonstration of financial need will not need to be verified and will be based on the honor system.
