FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE August 27, 2007 CollegeInvest Wyoming awards $3,000 in scholarships Kids from Cody and Lingle win money for higher education CollegeInvest Wyoming has awarded a total of $3,000 in scholarships to three kids from the state. Kids under 12 from all across Wyoming entered the contest in which they answered the question: "What do you want to be when you grow up and how would a college education help make that possible?" The winners of the contest are: Stirling Lawn , age 6, Michaela Osborne, age 8 both of Cody, and Delaney Schmer, age 10 of Lingle. A winner was selected from each of three age categories: ages 0-6, ages 7-9 and ages 10- 12. CollegeInvest Wyoming awarded a $1,000 college savings plan to each of the three winners. This is the first Wyoming scholarship contest offered by CollegeInvest since announcing the partnership last summer that made the popular Colorado 529 college savings plans available to Wyoming residents. "The entrants had the chance to write an essay or draw a picture to participate in the contest. We received some really creative entries from kids across Wyoming," said Jennifer Robinson of CollegeInvest. "It's not very often that kids this young can help their parents out with college savings!" The $3,000 in total winnings was awarded in the form of CollegeInvest Wyoming 529 college savings plan accounts. Money saved through these college savings plans can be used nationwide at any eligible public or private colleges, universities and vocational schools for qualified higher education expenses such as tuition, fees, certain room, and board and required supplies.
