  • Last year's Boys & Girls Club of Siouxland "Youth of the Year" winner has claimed the honor again. Ricky Obbink was one of four candidates for the 2025 honor. Each of the candidates went through a difficult process that started by being nominated by a staff member who believed the candidate demonstrated strong leadership skills and overall participation in the club.

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Siouxland has named 16-year-old Katelyn Whelchel as their Youth of the Year for 2024. Katelyn, a junior at Dakota Valley High School, was recognized for her leadership, service, academic excellence, and dedication to living a healthy lifestyle. She has been involved with the club for six years, participating in various programs that have helped her develop skills in public speaking, leadership, and community service. Katelyn's achievements include being a member of the National Honor Society, volunteering at local events, and maintaining a high GPA. She will now advance to the state competition, representing Siouxland with the hope of becoming the South Dakota Youth of the Year.
