A river of water flows past Fred’s Body Shop in downtown
Cottonwood at about 6 p.m. Monday evening. Cottonwood Police Chief Terry
Cochran reported Tuesday morning that apparently little water got into
any of the Main St. buildings thanks in large part to their plan of action
for such a situation. Some water got into the Fred’s Body Shop before they
got a dam built up in front of the doors. At Harman Agency water got right
up to the lip of the doorway but didn’t get in. Donn Clark set up a loader
in front of Hoene Hardware to divert water from the store. Photo by Judy
Klapprich Uhlenkott. See article at left for more photos. Click on the

Prairie Junior/Senior High School. High School students of the month
from left are Kirsten Latimer, Joseph Halligan and Casey Danly. Junior
High Student of the month Kendra Duclos is at far right. Kirsten comes
to class prepared and always has a positive attitude. She always
knows what the due dates for her assignments are so she never has to be
reminded to get things done. She works hard on her classwork, but
when she is caught up; she does work for other classes and is never idle.
She is also willing to help other students if needed. Joseph engages
in the learning process thoughtfully. He works wholeheartedly, is kind
to all around him. Casey is a hard worker and very responsible.
He always has a smile and is great to have in class. Kendra Duclos is an
outstanding student who takes pride in her work and always strives to excel.
She is helpful to others and respectful to her teachers and peers.

Mrs. Schumacher's first grade class won first place
in Prairie Elementary School's Box Top contest. Every year we hold
a contest to see which class turns in the most box tops. Each box
top is worth ten cents. Mrs. Schumacher's class earned $299.20 for
the school which means they tuned in 2,292 box tops!! They will receive
a super bounce party later this spring. There was a tie for second
place between Mrs. Kim Schumacher's third/fourth grade class and Mrs. Vikki
Riener's third grade class each earning $196.90. They will also
each have a super bounce party! Our Elementary School earned over
$1400 this school year so far earning EVERY class at the school an
ice cream party!! This money goes 100% to the school. We have
put all money earned over the last few years towards the school's new playground
equipment. This is a great and easy way for our school to earn extra
money. If you have any extra box tops you can turn them in to Lynn
Rehder in the front office at the Elementary school any time during
the school day. Congratulations to ALL the kids at the elementary
school. Photo by Sherry Holthaus. Click on the photo for a larger
