The Kingston and District Agricultural Society is offering a $1000 bursary named in honour of Evan Wills, who was a vital part of the Kingston Fall Fair for more than 60 years! In recognition of his many years of service and dedication to our fair, we will select one deserving student for this financial assistance as they embark on their post-secondary education. The R.E.Wills Memorial Bursary will be awarded annually to a Frontenac County High School graduate who will be entering their FIRST YEAR of post-secondary education in their chosen field within the agri-food industry.

To qualify for this bursary, a student must be accepted into a postsecondary institution (college or university) program in the fall of 2026 (FIRST YEAR STUDENTS ONLY) that could include any of these disciplines: agriculture, food, nutrition, culinary arts, agricultural commerce, or marketing, veterinary, horticulture or food service. Application deadline: July 31, 2026.
