NOAH TRULSEN Memorial Scholarship




A scholarship opportunity is being offered to a grade 12 student who is pursuing a trade and is currently playing hockey with the Ridge Meadows Rustlers, or has in the past.  


This scholarship has been established in honour of Noah Trulsen who, as many of us know, tragically passed away in 2018.  


The deadline in April 30, 2020.  If interested, please read through the below information.  Noah’s parents, Lorraine and Rick are hoping for more applicants this year as students may have not known about it last year.  




To All Graduating RMMHA Midget Players:


In memory of our son Noah Trulsen, we started a scholarship in his memory.  We would like to ensure that the information about his scholarship gets out to as many players as possible, that may meet the criteria, so that they can apply to possibly be the recipient of the award.


Noah was a kind, compassionate, caring, responsible and fun-loving young man.  Right out of high school, he started working with Boileau Electric, and shortly thereafter decided to pursue a career as an electrician.  On the morning of October 3, 2018, he wrote his final exam at BCIT, and became a certified electrician. He passed away in the early hours of October 4, 2018.


Any career in the trades, is a great choice!  Please read through the criteria below, and if you are interested in applying, please do.
