POLSON — The Lake County Job Service Employer Committee is excited to announce the winners of the 2019 Ken Rohrenbach Scholarship: Allison Delaney and Lisa Costilla. 

Allison is a senior at Charlo High School, maintains a 4.0 GPA, is class president, National Honor Society secretary, and active in volleyball, basketball, track and field and cross country. She will attend Montana State University to study Elementary Education. 

Lisa is a senior at Polson High School, president of the Indigenous United Nations Youth Club, participating in the SKC Upward Bound program and is active in basketball, softball, and volleyball. She will attend the University of Montana to study Education. Lisa was nominated by the scholarship committee for the statewide Fred Unmack Scholarship.  

These two $1,000 scholarships for graduating high school seniors from Lake County are named after the late Ken Rohrenbach. Ken worked for the Montana Job Service, served on the Polson School Board for 17 years, was a volunteer firefighter, and was an ardent supporter of all school activities. The Ken Rohrenbach Scholarship honors students that have shown community involvement, determination, and have overcome adversity. Applications for the 2020 Ken Rohrenbach Scholarship will be available in the spring of 2020.
