Travis McKinley Dow Memorial Scholarship Fund
Travis started his first band The River while at HSU. Graduating in 1994 he married his college sweetheart at Fieldbrook Winery in a storybook wedding. Inspired by the beauty of the area he began writing songs. A prolific and talented singer-songwriter, he won multiple awards, fronted five bands, signed a contract with Jericho Records for his San Francisco band Cal Hollow, and recorded three albums with the Katie Todd Band in Chicago and several original CDs. Travis co-created and penned two albums with Portland's Concrete Cowboys and wrote the musical theatre piece, Fate of Dreams, with Will Foreman, sharing his creative quest with others. Cancer took his life on his forty-first birthday. The scholarship enables students to fulfill their dreams of a career in the arts. "Something unique happens when songwriters collaborate---their souls touch, changing things from the ordinary to the sublime." -- Travis Dow www.reverbnation.com/travisdow http://www.syntropix.net/travis-dow-a-life-in-music/ (2013)
