NO MEETING IN JULY

Our July meeting has been cancelled. We are working with Brock’s to resume dinner meetings, with appropriate safety and social distancing protocols, later this summer. RVCWRT is sponsoring a National Park Service intern this year and hopes to award its annual $2,000 scholarship to a deserving intern in September. Our Vice President and Program Chairman, Paul Stier, is lining up some great speakers for 2021. The support of all our members during this difficult and unusual time is greatly appreciated.

For the Interns:

As things start to open up and we hope to be together soon, we are excited in the fact that the interns for the Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park will be coming. They will face new challenges as other interns have not before. We would like to welcome them to Fredericksburg.

For interested interns, under the information tab, you will find a link to the application to apply for the 2020 Intern Scholarship. Please read the instructions for applying.

We hope you have a great summer!
