Newman Grove

The Newman Grove FFAhad a big day on Dec. 8 at the District Leadership Development Events in Leigh.

Yuletide Fest was held in Newman Grove on Friday evening, December 5. A big crowd attended. There were rides, all businesses were open with hot drinks and treats, and of course, Santa Claus and the big beautiful tree on Main Street.

Two weeks ago, Newman Grove PreK–12 students showed their support in a fun and meaningful way—Hat Day! Students donated $2 each for the chance to wear their favorite hat, and together they raised funds to send a special care package to Kyle Eversole, who is currently deployed with the U.S. Army.

Micah Cuevas competed at the state meet held at the Kearney County Club in Kearney on Friday, October 24. After a recall and then a 5-minute delayed start, Cuevas finished 30th out of 131 runners in 17:33.1.

The students at Newman Grove Public Schools are getting their cafeteria meals “beefed up”, courtesy of a program called Scott’s Meat Mission. This program was the idea of Scott Nelson, father, farmer and an alumnus of Newman Grove schools.

From NG Social Media on Tuesday: Several of the FFA, NHS, and FBLA members worked together last night to collect 367.2 lbs of food for our community food pantry! A huge thank you to the amazing Newman Grove community for your generosity and support.
