RETOLD OLD NEWS

Mount Ayr Record-News
Mount Ayr, Ringgold County, Iowa
Thursday, July 25, 2002

Lisa Wilson, Mount Ayr

Three Mount Ayr Community high school students will be participating in the Southwest Iowa Honor Band which will take a trip to the Festa Bowl in Arizona in December. Michael SMITH, Alicia SHIELDS and Chelsea CAMPBELL will represent the Mount Ayr Community Raider band in the honor marching band.

A number of activities with a historical theme were part of the Ringgold County Fair this year. Hands on activities were available for people of all ages when the Journey Back in Time exhibit visited the Sites for Learning tent at the fairgrounds. The cast of the musical, "Roamin' Ringgold County in 1902," sang a song as part of the presentation of the history of Ringgold county 100 years ago. Two plays -- one was called "Diagonal - A Town to Love" -- were presented by SFL students during the fair in the special tent the program had for activities for youth.

A Mount Ayr girl brought home two bonze medals from the Iowa Games held in Ames recently. Megan DOUBLEDAY, daughter of Mike and Christine DOUBLEDAY of Mount Ayr, placed third in the 100 meter dash and third in the 200 meter dash in the category for seven and eight year olds at the event. She and her father, Mike, also participated in the family fun run and the opening ceremonies for the event.

Nine Ringgold county child careproviders took part in the TANF Project T.I.P. Incentive program last year. These nine providers completed over 300 hours of continuing education in issues related to quality child care. The nine providers participating included Judy DILLENBURG, Kay DRAKE, Meredith DREDGE, Shelly LILIENTHAL, Heather MARTIN, Carol Anne McCREARY, Nancy REYNOLDS, Gina STILL and Lynda TRIGGS.
