We thank Brink Weaver and all other donors for making this possible,&#8221; said Rob Milligan, President of LBHF. &#8220;The bursaries have increased in size each year since our first awards in 2014 and we trust they will continue grow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div style=\"float: left; margin-right: 14px;\"><strong><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45658\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone><\/strong><\/div>\n<p>The Harriet T. Weaver Bursaries are awarded annually to one graduating student from each of Bracebridge and Muskoka Lakes Secondary School and Huntsville High School who are accepted for post-secondary study at a college or university in a subject related to the work of the Lake of Bays Heritage Foundation. The establishment of these awards was made possible through a generous initial endowment by Harriet&#8217;s son, Brink Weaver, a former President of the Lake of Bays Association. The Fund has received many additional gifts since its establishment and remains open for donations to the capital endowment.<\/p>\n<p>Both recipients were delighted with the good news. As Abby Peca put it, &#8220;I have always wanted to go into Animal Biology at the University of Guelph and I am beyond grateful to the Lake of Bays Heritage Foundation in aiding me to achieve my dreams! The Harriet T. Weaver award is very generous and I feel very privileged to be the recipient of it. It&#8217;s comforting and exciting to know that my community supports me!
