Posted by Junior Shooters
June 18, 2018: Are you that young lady who looks forward to telling people what happened at the range? Do you like to shoot video or snap photos to chronicle those things in the outdoors that interest you? You might be the junior shooter we’re looking for. If you’re at least 16 years of age, have your parent’s consent, and are looking for a scholarship opportunity, check out the Women’s Outdoor Media Association (WOMA)! No entrance fee, just a chance to further your interest in shooting and the outdoors with extra cash – $500 to be exact.
First, what is WOMA? Established in 2008, we are a 501c3 not-for-profit with a volunteer board. Our primary focus is to highlight storylines about women, girls, and young ladies active in the outdoors. The WOMA is mostly made up of established outdoor media professionals (men and women), but also welcomes novice bloggers interested in writing and photographing women in shooting sports, hunting, fishing, and/or archery.
The WOMA not only highlights ladies and offers a scholarship, we also host an annual event called She Never Quit, which is in its fourth year. This event is held at the Lazy J Ranch in Texas, the property of Melanie and Marcus Luttrell (Lone Survivor.) She Never Quit raises funds for amazing charities, personally selected by the Board, which have included Navy Seal widows, Foundation for Women Warriors, 100 Club Houston, etc. To find out more about this event, please go to sheneverquit.com.
So what are the details on the $500 scholarship? It’s super easy to apply! Simply fill out the application found on our Web site, thewoma.org, under the “scholarships” heading; be involved in hunting, fishing, shooting sports, or archery; write a short essay that includes the four requirements listed in the application; and be able to submit four articles with photos within the calendar year. Don’t wait to submit your application! Deadline is December 1, 2018.
Thank you, Juniors, for your participation and passion for the outdoor sports. YOU are the future and are greatly appreciated.
We’ll see you in the outdoors!
