Ryder News for Nov. 23, 2017

Not much news this week as there was an early deadline to get news submitted.

Kenny has been going to physical therapy twice a week for several weeks now and today the therapist said he has made quite an improvement since the first time he went. He has a badly torn rotator cuff as well as some loss of control of his right hand as a result from his little stroke.


Parliamentary procedure team, Wyatt Kersten, Delaney Ruhland, Emily Fannik, Ben Scheresky and Shelsey Brandvold.

Sixth grader Shesley Brandvold joined a parliamentary procedure team through the Ward County 4-H. She and her team mates practiced before and after school and even the morning of competition. The kids went to Civic U located at the 4-H Camp near Washburn this past Saturday. All the hard work paid off as their team came home with the gavel trophy as state champions! Their coaches Christina Bingham, Hope Scheresky and Holly Kersten helped them on their achievement! All the kids go to Max School and are from Max, Douglas and Benedict area. Shesley is the daughter of Lee and Julie Brandvold.
Congratulations Shesley and the team!

 
Bill Quinn’s dog, Hondo.

Bill Quinn sent me the following: “I submitted this picture of my dog Hondo to the Minot Daily News Perfect Pet Contest. Voting starts on November 20th. Maybe your readers that subscribe to the Minot Daily News could help a Ryder dog win by voting. Bill Quinn.”

I received the following news item from Sandy Peterson and she says, “Carolyn Manns,  Deanna Reikow and I spent last weekend in Fla. enjoying the beach, sun, seafood and celebrating Carolyn’s birthday, I had great time with the girls.”

Ryder Community Food Pantry will not be open on Nov. 25, 2017.

Someone donated a van to the Community Food Pantry and Kathy Kimball says they appreciate it very much. She says it drives great and they needed it so bad!

Clever Housework Tips for Lazy People continues:

Wise Wanda Says: To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with
the potatoes. Helpful Harry Says: Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year.
Wise Wanda Says: To prevent egg shells from cracking, add a pinch of salt to the water before hard boiling. Helpful Harry Says: Who cares if they crack, aren't you going to take the shells off anyway?
Wise Wanda Says: To get the most juice out of fresh lemons, bring them to room temperature and roll them under your palm against the kitchen counter before squeezing. Helpful Harry Says: Sleep with the lemons in between the mattress and box springs.
Wise Wanda Says: To easily remove burnt-on food from your skillet, simply add a drop or two of dish soap and enough water to cover bottom of pan, and bring to a boil on stovetop. Helpful Harry Says: Eat out every night and avoid cooking.

There may be more tips next week!

Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look at things on the ground?
