Yes, that’s right!  You may be able to attend for FREE! Stratus Insurance, the HSMG insurance provider, is generously offering two scholarships to the HSMG 2011 Annual Conference in sunny Miami, FL!

The scholarships will cover your Conference registration, 4 nights hotel stay at the Hilton Miami Downtown and $500 in cash for travel and other expenses. WOW!

Scholarships are based on need and contributions to the soapmaking community. To apply, applicants must fill out a questionnaire which includes an essay of between 500 and 1000 words explaining why they are in need of this assistance, contributions they have made to the soapmaking community and how it would benefit their business.

Can’t win if you don’t try!  If you feel this may apply to your situation, just apply before the deadline for submitting the application is February 15, 2011.
