GENE BRIDGES MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP FUND

Honoring Gene Bridges: A Legacy of Safety and Education 

Gene Bridges dedicated over 40 years to the arbor industry with an unwavering passion for safety, education, and equipment excellence. Everyday of his career, Gene made it his mission to teach others the importance of proper training and safe operation of tree care equipment. His influence extended across North America, impacting countless professionals and leaving a lasting impression on everyone he met.

The Gene Bridges Memorial Scholarship was established to honor his lifelong commitment to education and safety in the tree care industry. While the scholarship celebrates his remarkable professional contributes, those of us at Bandit remember him as much more than an industry leader. He was a mentor, a trusted colleague, a devoted husband and father, and a friend beyond measure.

This scholarship will carry forward the legacy of a great man – one who not only taught best practice but also lived them, inspiring generations to come.
