Lynchburg is home to a real-life space cowboy.
Leland Melvin grew up in the Hill City and still lives in the area.
Today, he's dedicated to creating possibilities for young people and adults to help them go as far as their dreams will take them.
"My parents worked with Sterling Wilder and Jubilee you know for the last 30 years here in Lynchburg before they passed away. And now I'm doing my part to help carry on that legacy, to let these kids have access, opportunity and belief in themselves that they can do anything that they put their minds to," said Melvin.
