SCCA Women on Track (WoT), a part of the SCCA Foundation, announced their latest Women on Track Initiative to expand participation of women in all facets of SCCA programs as participants, volunteers, leaders, or supporters, during the SCCA National Convention.
With the full support of the SCCA RoadRally Board, the SCCA WoT announced the 2022 RoadRally Scholarship for an all-women team to attend the 2022 United States Road Rally Challenge (USRRC). The Detroit Region hosts it over the November 4-6th Weekend. We anticipate supporting two all-women teams at $300 per team.
We applaud the SCCA Land O’ Lakes Region (LOL Region), declaring during the Convention that they would offer Scholarship entry fees for all-women teams, with at least one team member holding a full SCCA membership – from any Region.
This offering applies for all LOL Region sanctioned RoadRally rallies – be they Regional, Divisional or National level events throughout 2022, to increase participation in RoadRally!
During a session on the closing day of the Convention, while sharing this generous support of the LOL Region to the RoadRally Community, SCCA Northern New Jersey extended the same offer! In addition, a member of their Region will personally cover those entry fees for their Charity rallies, so the Charities receive the full benefit of the fundraisers.
The Land O’ Lakes and Northern New Jersey Region’s offerings require no special paperwork from SCCA’s WoT. Each Region will handle the means to waive the entry fees during Registration.
The WoT Scholarship for the USRRC will be awarded after reviewing all submissions. The WoT Scholarship application will follow other program scholarship offerings; there will be an online application through the SCCA website. The team may use the funds to assist with travel, lodging, fuel, meals, or different needs.
Join me in thanking these two Regions for their support to the SCCA Women on Track Initiative RoadRally 2022! Should your Region wish to extend this same offer or a hybrid of the offering, please let us know to help promote your events to potential teams!
Should you have any questions or wish to be on the mailing list to receive the RoadRally Scholarship online application notice, you may reach me at scca@mac.com. We will also be posting the online application notice news to Facebook pages for SCCA Women on Track, Land O’ Lakes Region, Northern New Jersey, SCCA RoadRally, and Road Rally eNews.
Yours for the Sport, Cheryl Babbe, SCCA WoT RoadRally
