November Opportunities |
November is the kick-off month for the winter sports seasons. Hockey hits full stride, skiing, with the help of Mother Nature should be cranking up later in the month....there's even bowling, basketball and tennis on the menu. There's big news on the fishing front, and of course, high school fall sports playoffs take over the prep scene. Remember, we have updated scores, schedules and standings online for area schools, including schedules & info for Wenatchee Valley College.
Speaking of schools, congratulations to the Eastmont Boys Cross Country Team, selected as the WIAA 4A academic state champions with an incredible GPA of 3.953!
