---------------------------------
     The CVMTA offers bursaries each year to deserving students, and awards trophies and monetary awards to students in Performance (via the Cowichan Music Festival), and in Theory, for the highest marks in RCM Theory examinations each year. The fund also underwrites the History of Music Pro-D weekend in October which offers workshops and performances for all students of music - and their teachers!

     Bursary and Award funds come from special projects organized by the Cowichan Valley Music Teachers Association and from generous donations from the community at large.

     This year between $1000 and $1500 will be awarded. Donations to the fund are most appreciated - please contact Ann Mendenhall 748-8196 if you can make a contribution that will assist and reward many of our worthy students.

     We offer our thanks for donation received in the past year from:

-the annual Anna Chang Memorial donation
- Nancy and Buster Rowan
