A hometown newspaper with a local office, local owners & lots of local news
As some of you remember, I love watching the World Series, which I recorded on my DVR Friday night. Unfortunately, the DVR stopped recording at the end of the ninth inning, so I missed the walk-off grand slam in the bottom of the 10th by Freddy Freeman. I’m hoping to see the replay when I watch the next game, and you can be sure I am recording all of the rest of the World Series games or watching them live from now on.
Congratulations to Ari Dahl, as she placed ninth and qualified for the Minnesota State Cross Country Meet. She accomplished this at the section run in Coleraine Oct. 26.
Congratulations to Peyton Lace and Kalli Fjeld on being crowned Floodwood’s king and queen for homecoming. The folks in Floodwood can be so proud of your students and staff. The students are hardworking, kind and respectful to each other and especially to the substitute teachers — including me.
