Kit Eastlake Western Heritage Fund Accepting Applications for Scholarship

The Kit Eastlake Western Heritage Fund is accepting applications for 2011 scholarships.

The scholarship is presented in memory of the late Kit Eastlake, a local cowboy and poet who was involved in numerous horse, ranch and rodeo activities. Scholarships are awarded annually to one or more graduating seniors from the Fountain Valley area, who demonstrate an appreciation of their western heritage.

Consideration is based on a broad range of activities such as ranching, 4-H, rodeo, western music, art or poetry.

The deadline for applications is April 1. For more information, contact Sparky or Netty Eastlake at 683-4550.

Fountain Valley became a settlement in 1859 (founded by pioneers Tom Owens and Amos and Mary T Terrell.) They were soon joined by a third family, Mathias and Barbara Lock. Also founded in 1859 were Colorado City, Denver, Golden and Central City. The locals established a charter in 1871 and incorporated in 1903. Fountain is the oldest incorporated town in the Pikes Peak Region.
