The
Dunsmuir Memorial Bursary Program was established to provide financial assistance to registered participants including players, coaches, trainers, officials, timekeepers, and volunteers to help offset the cost of post secondary education in memory of the Dunsmuir Family.
Each year, EGMHA awards bursaries to outstanding young people who display an incredible amount of commitment both at the arena and in the classroom.
