Wildcats celebrated five years of dining, dancing and donating at the fifth annual Wabash CannonBall Colorado on Aug. 3.

About 200 K-State alumni and friends attended the gala, which is hosted by the K-State Alumni Association and raises scholarship funds for Colorado-area students to attend K-State. Over the past five years, Wabash CannonBall Colorado has given away 20 $5,000 scholarships.

“I am attending the college of my choice thanks to being selected for the Wabash CannonBall Colorado scholarship,” said 2018 scholarship recipient Nathan Kugler, who plans to study engineering. “I will be able to further my education with a small amount of student debt. Living out of state and being a third-generation student at K-State makes this scholarship even more meaningful.”
