Click to DonateTeresa Cagno, 17, sophomore at Poudre High School and Wellington Boys and Girls Club Youth of the Year for the third year in a row, presented her essay to a gathering of Chamber members, town trustees, townspeople, parents and club members at the Sixth Annual Mayor’s Recognition Night for the Boys and Girls Club of Wellington. The club showed a 35 percent increase in membership in 2014.
