Good morning, everyone!

What the heck happened to Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday?  I can’t believe this week flew by as it did, I guess that’s why people say “Make every day count!” I know that it has been a crazy week, like you’re running as fast as you can and you aren’t moving, that’s what I’m feeling.

Anyway, there is still a lot of week left and a ton of things going on. So let’s get at it! First and foremost, hug your kids, significant others, and anyone else you care about. With the tragedies of this week and in the past few weeks, you never know when it will be your last. Make every day count!

Today, the EHS Golf Team will be competing at Hill City, and tomorrow there is no school.  Yippee!  (I’m sure a bunch of kids just shouted that, so I had to throw it in!)  Saturday at 11:30 a.m., the Ellis Chamber of Commerce will host their annual Easter Egg Hunt in Memorial Park. Bring the kids out for a morning of fun as they can participate in the Ellis Rec Commission’s Easter Egg Decorating Contest in the Depot before the Hunt. Registration for the contest is at 10:30 to 11 a.m. They can pick up their decorated eggs after hunting! There are age divisions from little-bittys to adults so it’s fun for everyone!

Sunday morning will bring Easter services to the Ellis churches. Attend your favorite one with your family!

On Monday, head to the Ellis Golf Club and take part in their Stag. Doors will open at 6 p.m. and the meal will be served at 7 p.m.  You can purchase your $12 tickets at the Clubhouse, Golden Belt Co-op, Golden Belt Bank, Equity Bank and Weber’s Service.  Grab your friends and have a great evening!

I have to send out a huge congratulations and good job to the St. Mary’s School fifth-grade students. You all did a fantastic job with your Famous Figures presentations yesterday.  It was a tough job, but I loved it. Great job, everyone!

Next week is shaping up to be another busy one. If you have things that I need to share, please share with me.

Have a very blessed Easter and safe travels to all.
