The coaches introduced themselves, and the team captains explained how their hard work truly paid off. Coach Fabrizio described the final game.
Public Works Update
Public Works Director Mike Casper updated the public on the ongoing and upcoming work. The culverts on 6000 South have been installed, and they will pave it later this year. They are graveling some roads in the Tabiona Valley. They installed a culvert on State Street and Pole Line Road. The mastic machine was repaired and is now out working. Upper Red Creek (CR 1) has a lot of work that needs to be done. Several culverts are plugged due to a beaver in the area.
