RETOLD OLD NEWS

Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa
Thursday, May 2, 2002

Lisa Wilson, Mount Ayr

Going camping with friends and playing soccer in Des Moines have been some of the more memorable experiences for exchange student Danny DUARTE of Bogota, Colombia during his year in Iowa. DUARTE has been a student at Mount Ayr Community high school this year. His host family is Rick and Marilyn HAWKINS and sons Forrest and Lyndon of rural Mount Ayr.

The Arion award, presented to the outstanding senior member of the Mount Ayr Community high school band program, was presented to Landi McFARLAND of Ellston at the annual spring concert. She is the daughter of David and Joy McFARLAND.

A new event was held at Mount Ayr Community high school Saturday night -- a seniors' prom, designated to give area senior citizens a night out. The Mount Ayr FFA chapter, in cooperation with the FCCLA chapter, presented the event at no charge to those attending. Members of the FFA chapter decorated the commons Saturday afternoon, using decorations from the high school prom.

Friday the Raiders set a new school record for a round of golf with a 152 in defeating Diagonal and East Union.

A total of 11 letter winners are part of the Mount Ayr Community Raiderette girls track team this year. Letter winners include Heidi WINKLER, Beth GOURLEY, Stephanie NOBLE, Kristen WILKEY, Kinda FISHER, Amber SCHUSTER, Allison SNOOK, Melanie JACKSON, Mary SCHARFENKAMP, Courtney CANNON and April PERRIGO.

There are two seniors taking part in boys track for the Mount Ayr Community Raider team this year. Seniors include Scott HENSLEY and Colby BAKER.
