Gary Beach Memorial Scholarship
The Wyoming Natural Resource Foundation recently announced the winner of the 2011 Gary Beach Memorial Scholarship. The scholarship was established in 2006 to honor Gary Beach, a longtime employee of the Wyoming Department of Environmental Quality and a strong supporter of Wyoming’s natural resources.
Stacia Slowey, a junior at UW, worked as an Environmental Engineering intern during the school year. She also plans to attend graduate school and work in Wyoming once she has completed her degree. Beach was instrumental in working with local conservation districts to establish a grassroots driven watershed planning effort to address Wyoming’s impaired waters.
