Astoria students score $1.8 million in scholarships
The Daily Astorian
‘What are your summer
travel plans?’
“I’m going to go out and about in
Oregon during the summer, then
I’m driving to Alaska at the end
of summer. It’s nice up there that
time of year — no mosquitoes.”
The graduating seniors this
year at Astoria High School
raked in $1.8 million worth of
scholarships.
Astoria High School Scholar-
ships Inc. contributed more than
$200,000 to 70 seniors during its
awards banquet early last month
at the Liberty Theater.
Each graduating senior
took home at least $1,000,
from memorial funds, previ-
ous graduating classes and
local businesses like Lektro,
which gave $1,000 to each of
Astoria’s 11 valedictorians.
Astoria Police to host ‘Coffee with a Cop’ conversation
The Daily Astorian
Frank Satterwhite, Astoria
“We don’t have any plans. But if I
could, I’d go somewhere tropical.
I’ve never been out of the U.S.
Somewhere where there are white
beaches and clear blue water, and
you can see to the bottom.”
Hannah Bryan, Astoria

High School valedictorians during the AHS Scholarships Inc. ceremony early last month.
Astoria Police of¿ cers will
host an informal community
conversation, “Coffee with a
Cop,” at 8:30 a.m. July 20 at 3
Cups Coffee House, 279 W. Ma-
rine Dr.
All community members are
invited to the event.
“Coffee with a Cop,” will
provide an opportunity for com-
munity members to ask ques-
tions and learn more about the
police department’s work in
Astoria’s neighborhoods. The
event will provide an informal,
neutral space to discuss commu-
nity issues, build relationships
and drink coffee. The majority
of contacts law enforcement has
with the public happen during
emergencies, or emotional situ-
ations, according to the police,
and those situations are not al-
ways the most effective times
for relationship building with
the community. Some commu-

“These interactions are the founda-
