Hawks eSports Pre-Season

The Hay Springs Hawks eSports team kicked off their Fall season today with some pre-season games.  The Nebraska State eSports Association moved to a new management platform and the pre-season, while it doesn’t count in our standings, does allow Coach Taden Tobiasson and the players to get used to the new system.  Here’s to a great Fall eSports Season!

Pre-K Pioneer Manor Visit

On Tuesday afternoon the Pre-K kids walked down to Pioneer Manor for story-time with the residents. We listened to Hailey Toof read 2 books about Ember, the dragon, who learns baking is better than gold! Then we finished up our time with a yummy snack and some conversations across generations. Thank you for the invitation Pioneer Manor!
