Bishop Sunrise Rotary Seeks Local Applicants for Global Scholarships

The Rotary Club of Bishop Sunrise is looking for students from our area interested in applying for scholarships to pursue their graduate studies abroad. Through the Rotary Global Grant Scholarship program, students in our area and across the nation can receive up to $32,000 to offset the costs of graduate work, in particular areas of study, for no less than one and no more than four years in a foreign country. The scholar’s area of study, professional goals, and previous work or volunteer experience must strongly align with one of Rotary International’s Seven Areas of Focus, which are:

Peace and Conflict Prevention/Resolution
Disease Prevention and Treatment
Water and Sanitation
Maternal and Child Health
Basic Education and Literacy
Economic and Community Development
Supporting the Environment

Bishop Sunrise Rotary Club sponsored two Candidate Forums

Many thanks to both the Candidates and the online viewers who participated in the Bishop Sunrise Rotary Club’s two local Candidate Forums this past week. During these forums, we heard from all Candidates running for the either the Bishop Unified School District Board or the Bishop City Council.

At each forum, Candidates first gave opening statements and answers to the questions they had received from us in advance, then they answered questions submitted by local residents and online audience members. Both forums were recorded. If you missed either one – or want to watch one or both again – just click the links below.

RYLA 2019

Posted on Aug 21, 2019

We had a wonderful visit with three local youth leaders last week. Bishop High School Seniors Scott Hennarty (red shirt), Cristofer Ruiz Sandoval and Emily Batcheller spoke to us of the great experiences they each had at the Rotary Youth Leadership Awakening camp at Grizzly Creek Ranch near Portola, CA in February. In addition to being a great outdoor camp experience, RYLA offers students an opportunity to grow as individuals and as leaders in their schools and communities. Along the way they also built communication and problem-solving skills. Scott, Cristofer and Emily shared stories about their adventures in rock climbing and on a confidence building ropes course and the fun of making new lasting friendships without the presence of cell phones!
