The scholarship is for the cost of registration (currently $279) plus an additional $100 towards transportation, hotel and any other expenses.

• Demonstrate a serious interest in and commitment to Orff Schulwerk

Chapter Grants
This grant is intended to foster local collaboration within NCAOSA and covers the clinician’s fee, not including travel, as the NCAOSA budget permits. The local chapter or organization would provide a space and cover smaller costs such as postage and printing. The NCAOSA mailing list is an available resource, within the constraints of our nonprofit status and member privacy policy. Applicants must be current members. In the spirit of this grant, groups awarded are asked to share their experience in PlayNotes. Send new proposals to NCAOSA President Sarah Noll, P.O. Box 6027, Napa, California 94581; or snoll@headroyce.org. Application period is open, with long lead times encouraged.
