The students, makers, founders, and neighbors quietly doing big things in Greeley — before everyone else catches on.
Every town has people on the way up — the teenager launching a detailing business out of a driveway, the artist selling out a first show, the student organizing something bigger than themselves. This page is where we introduce them to the rest of Greeley while they're still climbing.
No gatekeeping, no pay-to-play. If you're building something real in Weld County, we want the community to know your name.
The Greeley Stampede Foundation named Greeley Central's Nathan Koesler the 2026 All-Around Champion Impact Scholarship recipient — a four-year award totaling $100,000, given to one student whose achievements, character, and community involvement stand out. It's only the second year of the award, which makes Koesler one of just two students ever to earn it.
Congratulations, Nathan — Greeley will be watching what you build next.
Greeley-Evans School District 6 opened the school year by honoring two of its own: Northridge High School's Bo Tellez as Athlete of the Week, and Prairie Heights Middle School's Leah Ramirez Cerrillo as Middle School Athlete of the Week.
We love seeing student-athletes recognized this early in the year — and we'll keep passing these names along all season. Know a kid putting in the work at any school in Greeley or Evans? That's exactly who this page is for.
