2019-2020 Scholarships & Awards

2019-2020

Scholarships & Awards 24th Graduating Class Whistler Secondary

1 Application Procedures

Whistler community businesses and organizations have been most generous and supportive of the Class of 2020 of Whistler Secondary. These opportunities are available that recognize the value of continuing education, and the skills and interests of Whistler graduates. This booklet identifies the many local opportunities that are being offered to assist you with making your post- secondary education dreams a reality.

Please carefully read and apply the following important information to help ensure the success of your application(s) when applying for scholarships and awards:

 Apply for scholarships/awards in your graduating year only. If you are unsure of your status, please discuss with Mrs. Smart. Please note, applicants must be enrolled at Whistler Secondary for the 2019-2020 school year to be eligible for these scholarships/awards.

 Read the “selection criteria” and “selection process” for each scholarship/award carefully. Some require letters of reference and some require resumes. Be certain that your letter of application addresses the specific criteria for each particular scholarship/award as clearly as possible. For example, if the criterion includes “citizenship qualities”, then you must identify how you have demonstrated citizenship qualities during your secondary school tenure. If the criteria states “Preference will be given to a student pursuing a career in the tourism industry”, you should briefly explain why you have an interest in that area and suggest how you plan to achieve your goal. If you have any experience in your selected field, that would also be relevant.

 In general terms, “superior academic achievement” indicates an “A” average overall, or for the subject area specified: “Strong academic achievement indicates a “B” average or better.

2  Avoid writing a general letter of application and submitting the exact same letter for several different scholarships/awards. Submitting general letters of application could result in your application being rejected, since there is no clear indication how specific criteria have been met. Some of the paragraphs may be the same because that information won’t change, but be sure to address the criteria. It is a good idea to keep your career goal consistent in all of your application letters.

 There is no limit to the number of scholarships/awards you may apply for, however, please keep in mind the stronger your application package, the more time it will take you to prepare each one. We recommend a maximum of 10 – 15 applications be submitted. Please do NOT submit each scholarship/award letter in its own envelope, just the letter itself. All applications, unless otherwise noted, must be submitted to Mrs. Smart.

 Never under-estimate the possible success of your applications or your achievements, interests, and accomplishments. Each year some scholarships/awards are not awarded because no one has applied.

Hard copies of the application letters must be given to Mrs. Smart and filed in the corresponding scholarships folder in the counselling area AND LETTERS MUST ALSO BE EMAILED TO: [email protected]. The applicant’s name must be in the subject line of the email and each scholarship letter should be a separate attachment (in the same email) with the student’s name and the scholarship name in the attachment subject line.

 THE DEADLINE FOR SUBMITTING YOUR APPLICATIONS, BOTH E-MAILED AND HARD COPY, IS 3:15 PM, MONDAY, MARCH 30 , 2020. We recommend you not leave these letters until the last minute to complete. This deadline is firm, applications received after March 30th, 2020 will not be considered.

 Students must submit their Social Insurance Number in the email with their applications. If we do not have your SIN, we are not able to issue you your scholarship cheque.

Successful applicants will be awarded at the Grade 12 Graduation Ceremony. Cheques will be issued to students in the fall once proof of post-secondary attendance is received. Students will be notified one week prior to the ceremony if they can expect to receive an award.

It is expected that successful applicants will personally thank and regularly correspond with their sponsors during their post-secondary academic year, indicating their progress and successes!

Frequently Asked Questions

Not sure if you will be attending post secondary this fall?

Unless otherwise noted, all scholarships and awards are valid for 15 months from graduation, or until September 2021.

Not sure if it’s worth the time applying for any scholarships or awards?

Consider that to earn the equivalent of a $1,000 scholarship, you would have to work for 40 hours a week for 2 ½ weeks earning $12 per hour.

What does “financial need” mean?

Attending post-secondary is a big expense, particularly for students in Whistler. Indicate in your application letter what initiatives you are taking to help offset your post-secondary costs. Your application will be evaluated based on all criteria identified & what effort you are making to contribute.

Why do we need your Social Insurance Number?

When you file your income tax, the government requires you to identify your educational revenue and expenses. Scholarships/Awards are now identified as educational revenue and as such could be taxed.

Whistler’s VIP’s

Many dedicated, enthusiastic, and talented people have contributed to the success of our community. Some of these people are recognized and honored through scholarships and awards at Whistler Secondary. A brief description of their contributions has been included to give students knowledge of their scholarship honorees. These VIP’s serve as role models for our future community leaders.

Art Den Duyf Memorial Award:

Art started Sabre in 1956 and moved his family to Whistler in 1978. Sabre was involved in the construction of Whistler Village, Creekside, the new Athlete’s Village and many other projects that shape Whistler’s current landscape. Art’s dedication, hard work and perseverance brought him success. He believed in a level playing field and enjoyed being in the background. Art shared his passion for work with his children, both of whom attended Myrtle Phillip and Pemberton Secondary Schools and operate businesses in the community. Art lived in Whistler until his passing in 2012.

Bob Brown Memorial Scholarship:

Bob Brown was a professional engineer and surveyor. He moved to Whistler in 1977 and started Robert B. Brown and Assoc. with his son Brian. Bob was an active member of the community and member of the Rotary Club, serving a term as President. Bob lived in Whistler until his death in 1986.

Chili Thom Memorial Scholarship

Chili Thom was a community volunteer and a strong advocate for the arts and culture community. He made a connection between sport, nature, and fine art and captured the spirit of the Sea to Sky with his dreamy imagery and wild at heart perspective. After a courageous and spirited fight, Chili lost his battle with cancer on November 30, 2016. The Chili Thom Memorial Scholarship Fund was created after a month long Whistler community celebration of the artist, held in June of 2017. Arts Whistler Presents: The Chili Thom Experience lit up 5 of Whistler’s cultural buildings with Chili’s art and soul: The Audain Art Museum, Maury Young Arts Centre, Whistler Museum, The Whistler Public Library and the Squamish Lil’wat Cultural Centre. The Chili Thom Memorial Scholarship supports students and/or community members in the Sea to Sky Community who are pursuing the brave, expressive and divine calling of being a professional artist. Funds may be used toward post- secondary formal education in the arts, to purchase arts supplies, attend workshops, or for other activities that support the applicant’s development in the arts.

Dave Murray Memorial Award:

Dave is one of Canada’s best known and most successful Canadian Ski Team members and was known as one of the original “Crazy Canucks.” He began his career as one of the original junior racers of the Whistler Mountain Ski Club, going on to become a decorated World Cup skier. After retiring from the team, Dave worked diligently to give Whistler one of the top recreational race programs in Canada. Dave died in 1990 at the age of 36 after a lengthy and valiant battle against cancer.

Franz Wilhelmsen Memorial Award:

Franz is the true “founding father” of Whistler and the visionary who saw the potential of the resort known in 1960 as Alta Lake. Franz became President of Garibaldi Lifts Ltd. (later to become Whistler Mountain Ski Corporation) and in 1966 opened Whistler Mountain. Because of his leadership and contribution to the ski industry, Franz was inducted into the B.C. Sports Hall of Fame in 1998. Franz passed away in April of 1998.

The Kelty & Riley Dennehy Scholarship Fund :

This fund was created by Ginny & Kerry Dennehy and the Kelty Patrick Dennehy Foundation in honour of their two children Kelty and Riley. On March 2, 2001 they lost their 17 year old son Kelty after a short battle with depression. That same year, the Dennehys created the Kelty Patrick Dennehy Foundation to help those that suffer from depression as well as their friends and family. Tragedy hit the Dennehy family again in 2009 when Riley died of a heart attack from strong medication prescribed to manage the pain for a separated shoulder. The scholarships generated by the Kelty & Riley Dennehy Scholarship Fund are intended to support students graduating from secondary schools in Whistler. The scholarships will be awarded to students who stand out in unique ways, beyond academics.

Margo Fraser Memorial Award:

Margo was a teacher at Myrtle Philip Community School and was later hired as a teacher for the new Whistler Secondary. Margo’s sense of humor carried her through difficult times and her love of the outdoors and sports was well-known. She was often seen enjoying her daily walks on the Valley Trail. Margo died in 1997 after a valiant fight against cancer.

Peter Xhignesse Memorial Scholarship:

Peter moved to Whistler in 1979 and was one of the original ski patrollers on Blackcomb. Peter soon became a highly regarded, very accurate weather and avalanche forecaster. He was active in many sports and is credited with being one of the original proponents of Blackcomb’s expansion to 7th Heaven. Xhiggy’s Meadow is named in his honor. Peter died of cancer in 1988 at the age of 33.

Sarah McSeveney Scholarship:

Sarah McSeveney was a beloved teacher at the Whistler Children’s Centre. With her warm and positive demeanor, Sarah touched the lives of many families. Sara was a lifelong learner, a fervent advocate for high quality early childhood education, and had a thirst for knowledge. Sarah died suddenly and tragically in a car crash in October 2005. Her family, friends and coworkers created a scholarship fund at the Community Foundation of Whistler to honour her memory.

Tinney Memorial Scholarship:

Tony was a well-known business man in Whistler, moving to Whistler in the early 80’s with his family. He was always involved in community events and was an active parent, coach, and board member/President of the Whistler Minor Hockey Association. Tony was always able to put a smile on anyone’s face with his unique sense of humor. Tony passed away suddenly and prematurely of a heart attack just several days after his 50th birthday in 2001.

Walter Zebrowski Memorial Award:

Wladyslaw (Walter) Zebrowski was one of Whistler’s founding fathers. He moved to Whistler in 1960 when Whistler barely existed. One could only reach Whistler by train. There were no roads, no electricity, no running water, no television. Walter fell in love with the mountain and made a commitment to be an active member of the community. He exemplified citizenship as a founding member of the Rotary Club, the Whistler Chamber of Commerce, the T.V. Society, and the Whistler Fire Department. He developed the Creekside area, created Eva Lake and donated Eva Lake Park to the Municipality. He wrote In Search of Freedom, a book about his life featuring his time at Whistler. Walter died in 1996 at the age of 83. This award is in recognition of outstanding community involvement/citizenship and leadership.

Wendy Thompson Scholarship:

Wendy Thompson was a strong, outdoor-oriented young woman who served as a ski patroller in Whistler, a paramedic with the BC Ambulance Service in Whistler and Vancouver, and as a volunteer with the Royal Canadian Mounted Police. She was an active mountain biker and hiker. Ms. Thompson died when a British Columbia Ambulance Service flight crashed into the ocean at the north end of the Queen Charlotte Islands. At the time of her death, she was on the ambulance service’s Infant Transport Team, since she loved children and young people. This scholarship fund was established in her memory by her parents Michael and Shirley Thompson.
