Janna Hoza, Hayden High School Senior, was recognized as “Student of the Month” by the Steamboat Springs Rotary Club this week.  Janna’s father Brian joined her for the presentation at the Steamboat Grand. Janna graduates in May from Hayden High School and also receives her Associate’s Degree from Colorado Mountain College. 

She has maintained a 4.14 GPA at Hayden during her high school career. Janna is one of only 42 students in Colorado who have been honored this year as a Boettcher Scholar.  She is currently vice president of the student council and her senior class as well as president of the school’s chapter of the Future Business Leaders of America.  She is also a member of the Peer Helpers Club, El Pomar Youth and Community Service, National Honor Society, Phi Theta Kappa, Community Action Network and has earned a letter this year in volleyball.   

Jana was selected to represent Hayden High School as a sophomore at the Hugh O’Brien Youth Leadership Seminar and will return this year as a junior leader.   She is an active volunteer completing nearly 300 hours of service on community projects since 2006.  She also works part time at the Hayden Mercantile and Totally Kids.     

Janna plans to attend the University of Denver in the fall.    “Janna joins a list of truly inspirational young men and women who have been honored as Rotary Students of the Month,” Sandy Evans Hall, Steamboat Springs Rotary Club president said.

Rotary Interact members from Steamboat Springs High School, parents, Steamboat Rotarians and Rotary District Governor Nancy Pettus gathered for potluck and praise Monday night, March 31 to celebrate the official recognition of the Steamboat Interact Club as the 19th club in Rotary District 5440.

Interactors Rianna Marr and Jan Anderson organized the evening with serving tables and lovely flower decorations ($10 goes a long way at the Dollar Store!). Interact President Meghan Hanrahan and VP Matt McIntosh gave stirring speeches about their motivation to serve others through the Interact Program.

Responding to the Interact Club request for “Spring Black Tie,” Rotarians Brooks Kellogg and Mike Forney garnered “oohs and ahhs” in their full-blown tuxedos, studs and all. “We just wanted our kids to dress a little better than sneakers and jeans,” Rianna Marr told Rotarians.

District Governor Nancy Pettus and her husband Bill (a past district governor) traveled to Steamboat Springs from Jackson Hole, Wyoming to present the Interact Charter. They were joined by Assistant District Governor Nancy Muldoon.

Brooks and Gail Kellogg described their recent trip to 12 exotic foreign locales at the Steamboat Springs Rotary Club meeting March 18th.

Titled “Vanishing Cultures,” slides of temples in Bhutan and native ceremonies in Fiji captured the imagination of the audience.

The Kelloggs brought back a number of momentos from their trip, including the drum Brooks helps to demonstrate in this picture.  Steamboat Arts Council President Katy Kriz and Arts Council Executive Director (and Rotarian) Marion Kahn look on.
