On its’ face, the upcoming election for the Lena-Winslow School Board seems pretty cut and dried – four candidates are on the ballot, and there are three open seats.

Due to the antiquated form of electing board members that Lena-Winslow has been unable to change the past two elections – there are not four candidates competing. John Leuenberger lives near Winslow, which is a separate district. And he is the onl...
Replacing a long time and beloved theater director at a small school is never easy, and while there were several areas that will undoubtedly be improved upon in the years to come, Stockton's production of Shrek proved to be a solid first effort for new director Brian Thompson.

It seems like election season never ends. A few decades ago, when my wife and I first reached voting age, we were living in California and the voters in our precinct voted in our neighbor’s garage, which was the official venue.

In the future, you should have been taught in law school to say “I object” instead of “That’s total bull%$@#.” I’m really sorry your honor, and I promise I’ll never get caught again. The difference between a lawyer and a heard of buffalo is that the lawyer charges more. Your honor, my client requests the opportunity to try a different sto...
For the last few weeks, I’ve had the phrase “run, run, Rudolph” stuck in my head. Nearly every time I was thinking about the Bruce Johnson Memorial Farm To Farm 5K/10K run, I would hear “run, run, Rudolph” in my head. Unfortunately, Rudolph won’t be joining us on Saturday, April 1 for the 6th Annual Bruce Johnson Memorial Farm To Farm 5K/10K Run, but we hope you will. This event raises money for Ag In The Classroom efforts in our county. A few highlights of this event include farm animals, Ag...
