Congratulations Telluride Rotary Scholarship Recipients

Pictured here, Sarah Ireland received Telluride Rotary's Service Above Self award and a $400 prize for outstanding community service. Sarah is going to the University of Hawaii at Manoa to study nursing, and she won this award because of her extensive volunteer service, on top of working part-time jobs, during high school. In particular, she earned EMS and EMT certification and worked as a junior firefighter and EMT at the Rico Fire Department.
Also pictured is our top scholarship recipient, Isaac Guerrero Garcia, who earned a $5000 scholarship. Isaac is attending Fort Lewis College and plans to major in History and Film. Isaac stood out as an accomplished and resilient young man. On top of working several part-time jobs, he also was active in community service and student government. Additionally, he has had to cope with a painful medical condition for the past six years. The committee was impressed by his positive demeanor and passion to study history and become a documentary filmmaker.
