Keith R. Kittle Memorial Travel & Tourism Scholarship
The Northern California Attractions Association, founded in 1976,
is a cooperative marketing organization made up of nine major attractions
in the San Francisco Bay Area who promote the travel and tourism
industry throughout the world. Each attraction recognizes the importance
of the education and training of our future industry leaders and
has therefore instituted this scholarship program to assist a deserving
student with their college education.
The scholarship is named in honor of Keith R. Kittle, former General Manager (1973-1996) of the Winchester Mystery House. Keith was one of the founding members of the Northern California Attractions Association, along with six other tourism marketing executives. He always fostered growth, knowledge, and cooperation.
