The Gene Bridges Memorial Scholarship was created to honor Gene Bridges and his lifelong commitment to safety, education, and training in the Arbor Industry. During his more than 40-year career, including many years at Bandit Industries, Gene dedicated himself to educating professionals across North America on the safe operation of tree care equipment and the importance of hands-on training and mentorship.
This $5,000 scholarship supports students pursuing careers in arboriculture, forestry, and related skilled trades programs.
Help us continue Gene’s legacy by investing in the next generation of industry professionals.
