District 8

Scholarships help cover registration costs for students and emerging professionals who are pursuing careers in parks, recreation, and related fields, giving them a chance to connect, learn, and grow alongside professionals from across the state.

District 8 Scholarship applications are now open, and we encourage you to apply early. This is an excellent way for them to build professional connections, attend educational sessions, and experience the broader impact of our profession firsthand. Applications are due Monday, January 5, via email to Stephanie Saucedo at ssaucedo@cityofsantamaria.org.
