Thanks to John Zeller for making the crosses for our cemetery project, to Bill and Michael Greenway for putting them in the Community Building and to Fitzgerald Funeral Home for giving us a discount on the plaques and letters. Hopefully they will all be installed before Memorial Day.
The Relay for Life Crew of Angela Morgan, Lynnette Doornbos and John, Austin McGaughey and Robbie McGaughey picked up the destroyed ‘toilet’ that was decorated for Relay for Life; a tree that was run into and the mail box that was vandalized. This happened Sunday night at the home of Betty Fear. Don Doornbos will reset the mail box. It is sad that ‘kids’ or whoever find fun in destroying property. I also read in the Hutchinson News where the interior of the 3rd church in a month has been vandalized. Doesn’t anyone know the meaning of respect anymore?
There were several who participated in the 2012 Wetlander 5K Run on Saturday, April 28. Kyra Horesky placed 1st overall.
The following LHS golf team members and their coach spent last Saturday volunteering to help shovel new sand on the greens at the McCracken golf course: Tanner Yohe, Taylor Yohe, LHS Golf Coach Cody Hamilton, Jacob Reifschneider, Derrick Depperschmidt, Chance Corsair, Shane Miller. They were then treated to lunch by Bruce Davis at Boondock's. Coach Hamilton was very appreciative of the little write up about the day’s work. The kids worked really hard on some pretty labor intensive tasks and he was very proud of their willingness to give back to the community.
