MADRID, Iowa — The Madrid AMVETS Post 210 awarded six $300 scholarships Wednesday to deserving students.

“Because of the generous donations from businesses and to all of the people who support our Post 210 by buying our Valentine raffle tickets, we were able to do this,” said First Vice Commander Michael J. Nieland.
