Hercules Scholarship Fund!

We are extremely proud to announce a new partnership between Kazlaw Injury Lawyers, RW Cameron Law, ENSO Accounting & Tax, and Rafkor Enterprises, which will help Hercules Weightlifting Club launch a brand new scholarship fund, aimed to support the athletic and educational initiatives of our competitive members.

The fund will be open exclusively to any Hercules Club member who:
-has been a HWC member in good standing since September 2020 (scholarship fund committee may consider exceptions)
-will be enrolling in any part-time/full time post secondary educational institution for the 2021-2022 semester
-will continue to represent the club in sanctioned competition while remaining a member in good standing

Scholarships from $500 to $1000 will be available.

I would encourage all our student club members to apply by sending an email to [email protected], outlining your upcoming educational and competitive weightlifting plans/goals.
Please include an outline of your tuition costs and any additional costs related to weightlifting training & competition.

Our scholarship fund committee will accept and review all applications up until August 15th, 2021, at which point we will plan a formal team summer BBQ gathering in the last few weeks of August in order to close out the summer and award our successful recipients.
