Cuming County News · West Point, NE
Nearby: West Point, NEOn the same day that West Point’s City Council awarded $50,000 in LB840 funds to help a new business get started, West Point voters rejected the continuation of a local sales tax that would have kept in place an economic development tool the city has used for 14 years. Although the ballot language was required to say voters were deciding if an “additional tax” should be collected, the vote was actually to determine the fate of an existing sales tax. As was noted in the Sept. 25 issue of the Cuming County News, passage of the ballot issue would have allowed the city to continue to collect its existing half-cent sales tax. Revenue generated by that tax would have continued to be split 50-50, half to economic development efforts and half for capital improvements, including park and recreation facility improvements. After the votes were counted last Tuesday, the result was “no” to extending the tax but “yes” to continuing the economic development program.

Nearby: Vermillion, SDFREEMAN, S.D. — One more game stands between the Freeman Flyers and another state championship, but this one would carry an even greater meaning for a program looking to bring a standalone title back to its community for the first time in 27 years. The top-seeded and undefeated Flyers will take their 23-game winning streak, dating back to last year, into Thursday's Class 9A state championship against Bennett County at 1 p.m. at the DakotaDome in Vermillion. Freeman has been dominant throughout the season, building on last year's championship experience and positioning itself to capture back-to-back state titles. The Flyers are looking to accomplish something that hasn't been done by a Freeman team in nearly three decades. After competing as a Freeman/Marion/Freeman Academy co-op in last year’s title run, the program has continued its winning ways despite losing key players and navigating the change.

Nearby: Vermillion, SDPLATTE, S.D. — The opportunity to finish the season with a state championship is something every high school football team works toward, but for Platte-Geddes, Thursday night presents an opportunity to do something even more special. Avenge its only loss of the season against the team standing between them and a title. The Black Panthers will take on top-seeded and undefeated Parkston in the Class 9AA state championship game at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at the DakotaDome in Vermillion, capping off the nine-man divisions' slate of title games. P-G enters the matchup with a chance to capture its third state title in seven seasons, but they will have to get through a familiar opponent that has proven to be one of the state's premier nine-man programs. “It's always special when you get to play in this game,” Platte-Geddes head coach Bruce Hanson said. “Our coaching staff has been fortunate enough to do it a few times, and the kids enjoy it. That's the goal going into the year.
