TWO DAYS OF STATE DANCE WITH A FEW MISHAPS I HAD
Covering the state dance tournament at Target Center every year is a blast for me. I love it. It just has a different vibe to it than other state tournaments. It’s hard to even find the right words to use. I have covered state football, basketball and baseball, even cross country and golf and nothing compares to state dance. The number of people that attend, … Continue reading TWO DAYS OF STATE DANCE WITH A FEW MISHAPS I HAD
A STRANGE SECTION DANCE FOR ME
Once again the LQPV-DB Shadows dance team danced their way to the state dance tournament by placing in the top three at section dance Saturday. As a matter of fact, they are section champions in Jazz and High Kick, placing 1st, YME 2nd and Montevideo 3rd. This Section 3A Dance Competition felt a little strange to me. It wasn’t the same as usual. I think … Continue reading A STRANGE SECTION DANCE FOR ME

This was the case this past weekend at the Canby Sportsmans Club and Canby Fire Relief Association 6th Annual Ice … Continue reading SAME PIC, DIFFERENT YEAR!

I did a blog a few years ago about interviewing people at halftime and I thought I should do an update on my recent halftime guests. Just a few weeks ago I had Brody Petermann from the LQPV Robotics Team. I am always so impressed with students from … Continue reading HALFTIME FRIENDS
MY FRIEND LOU
I get to spend time with some of the best people in area press boxes. I’ve spent hours and hours in different press boxes over the years visiting with scoreboard people, public address announcers, and other radio sportsbroadcasters. I met Lou Kuno from Montevideo thirty some years ago. At the time, Lou was broadcasting Montevideo sports for KDMA. Each time I was in Montevideo to … Continue reading MY FRIEND LOU
