‘Fun Nuns’ presentation June 24 in Ellendale

Join the “Fun Nuns,” Sister Michelle Meyers and Sister Kay O’Neil, for “Life is too short not to have a good time. Developing the Art of Affirmation.”

Accept, appreciate, and applaud the people with whom we live and work! How we think about others influences whether we appreciate or disparage them. As we focus on the positive qualities of others, we can learn to validate them. Practicing the art of affirmation makes a difference. We can make that difference with everyone.

Farm & City Days Medallion Clue No. 1

How well do you know New Richland? For the next four weeks, test your knowledge against clues that might lead you to the hidden Farm and City Days medallion and the prize of $50 in New Richland Bucks. One clue is added each week, right up to the big July 10-13 celebration. Clues will be printed in the Star Eagle and posted at local businesses. Good luck!

Clue No. 1:

Head to the city to begin the hunt. Everyone is sure to have fun. Above, below, around, up, down, all around. Don’t have to dig to find me. There are many kids around me. Oh, I see them go round and round.

There is sure to be laughter, joy, smiles, and even tears near me. Hard work pays off, remember. Everyone get up, come out and look, please someone find me!

Little Miss/Mr. Contest one of many new Farm & City Days events


By JIM LUTGENS

It will be a little bit country, a little bit city — just like the celebration it kicks off.

A new event, The Little Miss/Little Mister Pageant, will open 2014 Farm and City Days festivities on Thursday, July 10 at 7 p.m. at New Richland City Hall.

It’s open to youth age 4-7 who have a New Richland address and includes two divisions, Little Miss/Little Mr. Farmer and Little Miss/Little Mr. City.

“It’s something everyone should come and see, young and old,” said event organizer Jennie Johnson. “We hope to see a lot of people come and watch these children.”
