Each scholarship is for $1,000.

Conner Blach of Yuma is the winner of the Friends of Wheat Scholarship. He will graduate from Yuma High School this spring and is planning to attend Colorado State University to major in Animal Science. The Friends of Wheat Scholarship honors, in memoriam, someone who has influenced agriculture, specifically wheat, in our state. The first honoree for the Friends of Wheat Scholarship was Patty Wickstrom of Orchard, Colorado. In the last few years CAWG has added six new honorees to the Friends of Wheat: Lorin Starkebaum, Cindy Seger, Gale Dunn, Larry Palser, Cassie Brooks, and David Heck.
CAWG is a voluntary membership association that lobbies on behalf of wheat growers at the state and national levels of government and provides special programs and benefits to dues paying members.
