The chapter set up this scholarship to honor the memory of our member Dick Shaw. Dick was a well-respected inspector for WorkSafe BC, and a tireless advocate for blasting safety. He passed from a heart attack in 2007 shortly before he was due to retire.
The scholarship will be awarded to a full-time student attending a college or university in Canada studying a subject with some relevance to the non-military use of explosives or blasting (e.g. mining, civil, chemical engineering, geology, seismic exploration, avalanche control, blasting physics, etc.). Subject of study is flexible, providing the applicant has an interest in pursuing a career that could involve blasting. The applicant does not need to have any link to the Chapter or explosives industry and does not need to come from Western Canada.
