From the top! As best as I can summarize.
The Belgrade city council meets tonight with a robust agenda ahead of their annual August Fest celebration (which is August 7,8,9 and 10). The council meeting agenda can be found at the Bonanza Valley Voice newspaper's editor's blog: https://shorturl.at/fxgOE.
The B-B-E 14-U fastpitch playoffs will be held at the Long Prairie-Grey Eagle softball complex on Tuesday this week beginning at 5 p.m.
The B-B-E American Legion 17-U fastpitch playoffs will be held on Thursday, July 24 this week at Minnewaska Area. This is the Sub-Region tournament, and the champion of the 5 teams will advance to the state tournament. The Jaguars are the No. 2 seed behind Melrose Area. B-B-E's first game is at 5 p.m. in the semifinals against No. 3-seeded Albany.
BIG news!
The B-B-E Babe Ruth 16-U baseball team has earned a spot in their state tournament. They open on Thursday this week at New York Mills. I'm guessing it's a similar format to the 14-U state tournament that was held last week. (Update! I've got the full brackets now, and the Jaguars 16-U team opens state on Thursday this week, July 24, at 5 p.m. against Detroit Lakes Red. The entire 8-team tournament is held in New York Mills.
Also! The Pope County Fair begins next week. It will be featured in a full page advertisement in this week's (July 24) issue and the July 31 issue. You can see other information on the fair at their website: https://www.popecountyfair.org.
