This is the second annual Shrine Circus for this area. “On that Sunday evening, we hope to have the stand full of people eager to see the full three-ring circus,” said Joel Stephens, Four Rivers treasurer. “There is only one performance! It will be one of the last chances to see the elephants in the show.” “Last year we had a great turnout with a full house. All of our available seating was used. We hope to do it again this year with everyone ready to have a great time at the circus. This year the per - formance is in the evening, so things may be a bit cooler.” The proceeds from this event go toward the NAJA Shriners op - erating fund. At the NAJA Shrine, we have a hospital division that works directly with the families going to the Shrivers hospitals. Shriners provides transportation and lodging for the families.

Newspaper Association Despite some board member opposition, the state’s high school activ - ities association has approved a Sweet 16 format for Class AA and Class Call Sonya today! B basketball and volleyball. A second reading, June 8, of proposed changes to the South Dakota High School Activities Association athletics handbook passed on a 6-2 vote. Board members Jason Uttermark, Aberdeen, and Steve Morford, Spearfish, said they voted no on the entire package of changes because they were opposed to changing to the Sweet 16 format. An attempt to consider the Sweet 16 format separate from the entire package of changes failed on a 3-5 vote of the board. The Sweet 16 format eliminates regional play and seeds teams for a 16-team tournament. In AA, regular season seed points will determine the top 16 teams to qualify for postseason play. Two teams would be left out of the tourna - ment. The number one seed would would host the number 16. The eight winners would be the teams going to the state tournament. In Class A, which already has the Sweet 16 format, and Class B, tour - naments would decide the top two teams in each region. The remaining 16 teams would be seeded for games with the eight winners going to the state tournament. 2012 Cadillac CTS, 3.0L V6, AWD, Leather At the first reading of the proposal at the SDHSAA board meeting in April, a divide was apparent between East River and West River schools with representatives of West River schools speaking against the pro - posal.
