Pheasant hunting opening weekend 2014 started out with the perfect weather for hunting. The autumn chill made the air crisp, but not uncomfortable. Golden, orange, and red leaves crunched quietly under methodically moving feet. White, fluffy clouds dotted the clear blue skies. The Stover family couldn’t have asked for a better day for their yearly hunt near Northville, South Dakota; unfortunately for Kyle Stover, the day turned out to be far from perfect.

The journey to All State chorus began long before these eight individuals entered high school and involved much more than taking the RHS minibus down I-29 on October 30. For most of the All-Staters, it began with the basics like “Wheels on the Bus” in preschool and progressed to the classic “The King Shall Rejoice” by George Frideric Handel in High School. Over the years, the passionate need to explore music took hold in each and every individual who participated.

NHS Members Inducted by Sage Binger, senior
As the group of people gathered on Main Street,
the evidence was there in plain sight. Paint covered
the sidewalk, and several bystanders stood and
surveyed the scene. But it wasn’t an act of
vandalism; it wasn’t senseless destruction of
property in the form of graffiti. It was the product
of sophomore Kaley Schweitzer’s FCCLA Service
Project.
