Grossman Scholar Spotlight: Rosston Sherlock

Alex Schupp • Jan 01, 2022

Hello! My name is Rosston Sherlock...

and I am a graduating senior at Buena Vista High School where I have been active in Student Council, Bionic, as well as serving as our local National Honor Society president. I have also qualified to go to the 2A cross country state championships with two top ten placings at that contest. I also wrestle and run track.


With help from the Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado and the Grossman Scholarship I will be attending Colorado State University this fall. My focus going through college right now will be either in some sort of conservation or wildlife management biology. I moved to Buena Vista, Colorado when I was 8 and began to grow in my relationship with the outdoors. I have been active in many different outdoor activities including dirt biking, hiking, rafting, kayaking, skiing, and even snow caving to name a few. I have fallen in love with the beauty of the natural landscape that surrounds my hometown and I want to help conserve our natural resources. I am incredibly grateful to the amazing people at Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado for providing this opportunity.


Rosston is one of four students to receive VOC's Grossman Scholarship for the 2021-22 school year. VOC offers two $10,000 and four $5,000 scholarships annually to eligible Colorado residents who have demonstrated a commitment to caring for our environment's natural resources and intend to pursue post-secondary education through an accredited environmental, natural resource, climate, or outdoor industry related education program in Colorado.


Applications for the 2022-23 school year are open through 11:59pm on March 31, 2022.
