This year the Wyoming Outdoor Council is proud to award $1,500 scholarships to five graduating high school seniors from Wyoming — who all have demonstrated a commitment to conservation values and protecting Wyoming’s environment and quality of life. The five students plan to study a wide range of topics in conservation and resource management and will be pursuing related degrees. These scholarships were made possible thanks to the generous support of the Blue Ridge Fund of Wyoming. Congratulations!
- Tessa Coughenour (Natrona County High School) will study environmental design at Montana State University.
- Parker Goodwin (Cody High School) will study engineering at the University of Wyoming.
- Mallie Gray (Natrona County High School) will study reclamation and restoration ecology at the University of Wyoming.
- Kai Lynn (Cody High School) will study biology at Northwest College with plans to transfer to the University of Wyoming to complete a degree in wildlife biology.
- Rachel Stoinski (Lander Valley High School) will study wildlife and fisheries biology and management at the University of Wyoming
We will continue to offer these scholarships each year to help support the next generation of conservation-minded Wyomingites. If you know a young person who may qualify, please spread the word and watch for the next opportunity to apply in early 2021.
