NSWCA Girls State Dual UPDATES:
We have received some updates regarding the Girls State Wrestling Dual Tournament on Thursday. We have been asked to pass along the following details to our patrons:
- This event is NOT at West Point-Beemer High School. It is at the Nielsen Community Center. The address is 200 Anna Stalp Ave, West Point, NE 68788.
- We will have a concession stand with pop/water, candy, pizza, nachos and pretzels.
- Please park your buses/school vehicles on the WEST side of the Nielsen Center (gravel parking lot by baseball field). This will allow patrons to park in the normal parking lots for the Nielsen.
- SEATING: Seating will be very limited as we have found out that we can only use bleachers that are 3 rows high due to a safety issue.
Whippet Speech continues to gain momentum with 27 varsity and 5 novice medalists at the Bow Invite. FIVE event champions included Conyers/Klabunde V Duet, Sam Cederburg V Extemp, F Kovacs V Persuasive, M Heath N Poetry, & A Cederburg N Entertainment. It was a fabulous day!!
