Students recognized for achievements

The Wahkiakum Lions have given recognition to two outstanding Wahkiakum students. They were recognized at a basketball game last week. Peter Weiler was honored as their November Student of The Month. Weiler’s parents are Chris Weiler and Kate Hanigan.

Marissa Washington was their December Student of The Month. Washington's parents are Troy and Tamera Blix and Lamar Washington.

Both students received a check and a certificate to recognize them for their achievement.

Ben Vasion gave a presentation at the Wahkiakum Lions’ last meeting about the project he completed for his Eagle Scout Badge. The Lions helped to fund the project, and Vasion built a new ticket booth for the Fairgrounds. The Eagle Badge is the highest medal that can be earned in scouting.
