WONDER ABOUT WHAT'S GOING ON?

What’s happening here on this side of the creek:

On Friday, before a crowd at Citizen’s State Bank & Trust, the Smoky Hills Charitable Foundation announced the first-time grant and scholarship recipients. Awards were presented to: Post Rock Foundation, Ellsworth Historical Society, USD 328 Elementary and Middle School, Ellsworth Arts Council, and to the recipients of the Eleanor Hunter scholarship. The Foundation seeks to enhance the quality of life in and around Ellsworth County, both today and in the future, by: enabling donors to fulfill their charitable desires, building a permanent endowment, facilitating prudent management and care of funds, meeting needs through grants, awards and scholarships. Congratulations to the recipients!

The group formed to develop a New Resident Incentive Package will have their second meeting on Tuesday, May 20 at the Correctional Facility’s Training Center. The meeting begins at 6:30 p.m. The public is invited to attend.
