Outdoor Gear Only Scholarship Competition

At Outdoor Gear Only we know how important a good education is. We wouldn’t be able to write such in-depth outdoor gear reviews if we didn’t have a proper education. That’s why we want to give one winner $1,000 toward the cost of their education.

The Outdoor Gear Only Scholarship has ended
Important: The final year for the Outdoor Gear Only Scholarship was 2019. There will be no 2020 Scholarship. We thank all past participants and winners for their participation. We are focusing on other community contributions and outreach in 2020 and beyond.
Terms of Participation
  • University and college students over 18 years old are eligible.
  • Passion for the outdoors.

How Can You Participate?

We would like you to write a short essay of about 600 – 1000 words.
You can choose one of the two topics below:

  • Topic 1: What is your favorite outdoor activity and why?
  • Topic 2: Write an essay on the following sub-headlines:
    • How can we preserve nature?
    • Tell us about a memorable time in the outdoors?
    • What is your most important outdoors tool?
Note: Make sure that the views expressed in this essay are original and your own. They should not be plagiarized from any other source. If you could attach a relevant picture, that would be an added plus.

When submitting your essay, please include the following details:

  • Full name
  • Address
  • Phone Number
  • School name
  • Your School Address
