On behalf of Ana’s family and friends we thank you for giving to Ana’s scholarship.
This scholarship was established in 2010 to honor the memory of Ana Ivanovna Olson, a loving daughter and sister and a friend to many. Ana’s closest friends, Paige Miller, Kirsty MacMillan and Shelby MacMillan raised most of the seed money for this scholarship to honor their friend and classmate from Tongue River High School, class of 2010. Ana was born in Russia and adopted by her Wyoming family when she was 9 years old. Ana was caring, intelligent, fearless, and steadfast and loved her 4-H animals. She excelled in raising swine and one day hoped to graduate from Sheridan College with both a nursing degree and an agriculture degree so that she could always raise swine commercially. Ana passed away in 2009 during the summer before her senior year at Tongue River High, due to complications from heart surgery. This scholarship will be awarded preferentially to graduates of Tongue River High School with a G.P.A. of 3.0 or above, and majoring in either nursing or agricultural science.
The Sheridan College Booster Club 2010 Golf Tournament
Published to site on: June 10th, 2010The tournament was held at the Powder Golf Complex on May 14, 2010. This year’s tournament was our biggest and best tournament ever, with 36 total teams and a total of 144 golfers! The atmosphere at the Powder Horn was great, and the weather was as good as it gets, but what made the golf outing so special were all of our supporters including: the golf participates; the organizations that provided contributions to our silent auction; the putting contest sponsor RE/MAX Bighorn Properties (The Bates Team); the awards dinner sponsor Sheridan Lions Club; and all of our many volunteers and college staff. We featured 18 very desirable silent auction baskets, one at each hole during the tournament. Golfers commented on how much they enjoyed being greeted at each hole by a basket filled with wonderful opportunities.
We exceeded last year’s tournament net proceeds to the athletic operation’s budget and we also were able to contribute funds to the Booster Club Endowment Fund. The State of Wyoming will match our contribution dollar-for-dollar to the Sheridan College Booster Club Endowment. The Booster Club Endowment is important to the future operations of the athletic department and students of Sheridan College. The earnings from the Endowment are applied to scholarships, equipment, recruiting and other department needs. Contributions to the golf tournament enhance our efforts to support our Sheridan College Generals!
