Two teams of students from Morgan County took home trophies and awards from the Colorado State Science and Engineering Fair April 10 to 12 at the Hilton Hotel in Fort Collins. <\/p>\n
The teams consisted of Weldon Valley Middle School student Kaybree Keating and Fort Morgan Middle School student Kaitlin Wells, competing in the junior division, and Fort Morgan High School students Sarena and Aubrey Wells, competing in the senior division. <\/p>\n
Their journeys began at the Morgan\/Washington Bi-County Science Fair, though. <\/p>\n
