Fire Shows West Funding Opportunities

Good evening NSFA members!

Fire Shows West is coming up September 18-20th. If you are planning on attending, here are two ways you can lessen the cost.

The NSFA has chosen to offer unused stipends from conference to those who would like to attend Fire Shows West. Applications must be turned in by August 8th.

The Association offers $250.00 stipends to assist members in good standing to attend various training events throughout the State of Nevada, including the Annual Training Conference. With the ever increasing cost of travel and reduction in fire department budgets, we hope this will assist you in attending training through the NSFA.

The second way is by applying for Dayle Wellbrock scholarship through Fire Shows West. This application is due July, 15th!

What is the mission for the Dayle Wellbrock Scholarship?

The mission of the scholarship is to allow members of the fire and emergency services to offer new insights and set new directions to an issue that currently pose challenges to the fire and emergency services.

What will this Scholarship Award cover?
  • A full Conference pass to the FireShowsWest conference
  • $500 stipend for travel and meals
  • Hotel accommodations for three nights
  • Participate on a panel discussion during the conference relating to the program topic’s issues in the fire service
