HAA SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS

The James K. Smith memorial scholarship honors Jim Smith. Jim began  with Niles Haunted House in 1988 and later served on the board of  directors of Niles Haunted House and was a founding member of the  International Association of Haunted Attractions, the predecessor of HAA  and served on the board of that organization for over 20 years.

During his 20 plus years on the IAHA Board of Directors, he was a  driving force behind the industry’s first safety program, Certified  Haunted Attraction Operator Safety Program (C.H.A.O.S.), and the  National Public Relations Campaign that benefited Haunted Houses around  the country.
