Snakebitten: Grovers defeat Elrosa Saints by one run

Four games into the season, the Elrosa Saints amateur baseball team is far better than their record suggests. Unfortunately, they will head into Memorial Day weekend still searching for their first win of the season after they were defeated 7-6 at Meire Grove today.

The loss comes on the heels of a 12-7 setback to visiting Lake Henry for the home opener held yesterday.

Today is about a 20-hour work day for me. Sunburg hosted an outstanding Syttende Mai celebration! Believe it or not, tonight I had to set up a 20-page Bonanza Valley Voice layout for the May 23 issue. At this point, I do not know if I can pull it off. In all likelihood, it will be 18 pages. If it is 18 pages, it will be the biggest newspaper I've published since prior to the pandemic.

Hot off the press!
