On Saturday, Feb. 27, the Cypress City Council attended the 41st Annual Cypress College Americana Awards sponsored by Union Bank.
The event featured a live auction that included the opportunity to win a donut breakfast and ride to school in a police car with Cypress Chief of Police Rod Cox.
The Americana Awards is organized by the Cypress College Foundation and is the largest fundraiser for Cypress College. Proceeds from the event support scholarships, emergency assistance, book loans, the “mini grants” program, and other college initiatives that wouldn’t otherwise be funded. Since 2001, the Americana Awards has generated more than $1 million for Cypress College.
