Montezuma County Sheriff Steven D. Nowlin and Mariah Bradshaw.

Montezuma County Sheriff Steven D. Nowlin has announced that Mariah Bradshaw, a Mancos High School student, is this year’s recipient of the County Sheriffs of Colorado, CSOC, scholarship award for Montezuma County.

CSOC, Colorado’s state sheriffs’ association, offered a total of 31 awards of $500 each this year to deserving high school and college students in Colorado to fund higher-lever educational expenses for the 2015-2016 academic year.

A citizen’s committee selected the winner for each county. Committees made their selections based upon criteria established by CSOC, including leadership, merit, character, involvement, purpose and need. Applicants were required to be full-time, legal Colorado residents who planned to attend a Colorado university, college or trade school.

This is the 36th year for the CSOC scholarship program. Monies for the program are derived, in part, from the CSOC honorary membership fund, which consists of contributions from individual citizens and businesses each year.

If you are interested in providing continued support for this excellent program, please contact the County Sheriffs of Colorado at 720-344-2763 or visit our website: www.CSOC.org.
