Freshman Parker Wellnitz crossed the finish line 15th and sealed the deal for a chance at state. He will run at 12 p.m. central time zone in Kearney Nebraska on October 20th. Parker’s personal record this year is 18:57.0. I am hoping for great weather and good health for Parker’s last run of the season. My overall goal for him this Thursday is to go out and do his best and shoot for another PR to finish his season strong.
With the help of Julie and Erika and the Cravath Memorial Library, 4th graders were able to find answers to the Sheridan County Tourism Boards Hay Springs Scavenger Hunt. They were very excited to learn about their town.
