BURSARY HISTORY:

In 2016, the Lac du Bonnet Ice Fishing Derby Committee began the LDB ICE Student Bursary Program. Since its inception, the Committee has awarded $16,000 to 16 deserving students pursuing post-secondary education.

LDB ICE STUDENT BURSARIES

The purpose of this bursary is to provide Financial Aid to a deserving student enrolled in continued education where the field of study will have possible relevance or benefit to the Lac du Bonnet Region. Each year the Lac du Bonnet Ice Fishing Derby Committee will give up to two Bursaries of up to one thousand ($1000.00) each to a deserving student based on relevance, need, and the availability of funds from the Lac du Bonnet Ice Fishing Derby.
