Judges Training Conference Award Stipend
When Harvey Considine died in April of 2005, many ADGA members across the United States generously contributed to a memorial fund at the request of the Considine family. One of the ADGA programs that Harvey most heartily endorsed was the official judges training system; he constantly mentored interested persons. Recognizing that the financial cost of attending is often prohibitive, the Harvey Considine Memorial Fund offers worthy new, young applicants, as well as first time renewing candidates, a stipend in the amount $500 will be awarded. Application deadline is April 15.
