Yes, fall is finally here, and it has bit down with cold temperatures! We settled down to about a low of 40 degrees tonight.
The B-B-E Jaguars girls' tennis team completed the regular season with a 6-1 loss at Melrose Area on Tuesday. They open the Section 5A team playoffs today (Thursday). Unfortunately, the MSHSL website is not updated with current brackets, so I have no more information to post. The individual portion of the Section 5A playoffs will be held on October 10 and October 14 at StayFit in Sartell.
*Update: the Jaguars face Pierz in the Section 5A quarterfinals today in Pierz. If they beat the Pioneers, the Jaguars will face the winner of St. John's Prep/St. Cloud Cathedral vs. Staples-Motley in the semifinal round next Tuesday, site TBA.
The coming weeks and weekends have numerous terrific entertainment options on the schedule. The Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper has recently been filled with some of them, cover to cover. This week is no different. One event that is coming on Saturday this weekend is the Oktoberfest celebration at Goat Ridge Brewing in New London. You can see their large ad on page 7.
Another Saturday, October 5 event is the 10-year anniversary and Customer Appreciation Day at Brink's Beer Joint in Swift Falls. Those details are advertised on page 6 this week and can also be found (along with Goat Ridge) on the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper's website community calendar, which you can find here (short link): https://bit.ly/2EvexOA.
Also, you can find online stories about Goat Ridge and Central Square activities at the "regional" page of the Bonanza Valley Voice website: https://www.bonanzavalleyvoice.com/section/regional.
And, I want to share the website that's been created for Saucedos Mexican Restaurant in Belgrade. You can find it by clicking on the following short link: https://bit.ly/2n8EfUg. I provided them news coverage last April when they first opened, but since then I've been unable to follow up with them. I hope to remedy that this fall.
