Baltimore Jack Memorial Scholarship
In memory of friend, fellow trail maintainer, and original 1%'er, the One Percent Club and SAWC has established the "Baltimore Jack" Memorial Scholarship for Long Distance Hikers. The One Percent Club and SAWC will award an annual $250.00 cash scholarship to one current year Northbound Thru-Hiker, and one Southbound Thru-Hiker on the Appalachian Trail. The Baltimore Jack Scholarship is based on immediate need and is designed to help a legitimate AT Thru-Hiker finish their hike; therefore this cash award will be distributed on a rolling basis at the end of the current year hiking season for Northbound and Southbound hikers. Please contact the One Percent Club and SAWC at jim.chambers@onepercent.us for more details.
