Three Cheyenne resident students have been awarded college scholarships.Being awarded and recognized for excellent achievement in education is always a popular attention getter in Cheyenne. There's probably not one person in Cheyenne who want to see our young people succeed academically.

The American Legion Auxiliary Unit 6 has awarded three of our local, Cheyenne students a college scholarship. The honorable students are: Elisa Lovato, and Elizabeth Wagner from South High School and Ryan Mehalich from East High School.

The auxiliary makes scholarships possible to local area high school students who are selected on merit, the work they have accomplished for the Cheyenne community and financial needs.
