Association members,
The Brookline Bird Club will again offer two Bill Drummond Young Birder’s Scholarships to nurture interest in bird study and conservation among young birders. 2026 scholarships will cover the full cost of the Coastal Maine Bird Studies for Teens program at National Audubon’s Hog Island camp on June 21-26, 2026. The cost includes housing, boat travel, and all meals. Scholarship recipients will be responsible for transportation costs to and from the camp.
Applicants must be New England residents, ages 14-17 as of June 1, 2026, and must submit a written application and two letters of reference. Preference will be given to applicants with individual or family BBC memberships. To be considered a member, an applicant may join the club at the time of application. A youth membership for one year is $10.All completed applications and references must be received by the BBC scholarship committee by February 16, 2026. Selection and notification of recipients will be completed by March 12, 2026. For instructions and an application form, check the BBC website at

Please help spread the word to any teen birders who might be interested. Some of our previous applicants and recipients learned of our scholarships through Association members.
Thanks,
John Nelson
