Jamestown\u00a0 (CSi)\u00a0 With the community\u2019s help, Kiwanis is organizing a contact-free collection.<\/p>\n
To serve the community, the 45 or so members of Jamestown Kiwanis plan to collect cans & coats as part of the first event of its kind in Jamestown.<\/p>\n
Kiwanis President Searle Swedlund, says, “Kids need Kiwanis this year more than eve.\u00a0 This is a contact-free way to make a giant impact without spending much time or money.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Kiwanis Cans & Coats collection is set for Saturday, Nov. 7.<\/strong> Kiwanis asks residents to package their cans and coats in either cardboard boxes or plastic bags. Please leave the items near the front door or in other conspicuous locations by 8 a.m. All items will be collected by noon. Rural communities are included too.<\/p>\n Anyone willing to donate cans and\/or coats is asked to register at the link below, so Kiwanians know to stop by. Individuals in surrounding communities are welcome to register and partake too.<\/p>\n What began as an initial coat drive turned into an opportunity to support the Salvation Army\u2019s food bank too.<\/p>\n Swedlund adds, \u201cSince we had to postpone Kiwanis Against Hunger this year, this was a way we could continue to feed the hungry. Full bellies and warm bodies.\u201d<\/p>\n To learn more about this event or to support future service opportunities, visit www.facebook.com\/JamestownKiwanis<\/a> or email JamestownKiwanis@gmail.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n GRAND FORKS, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Opponents of Grand Forks coronavirus mask mandate marched outside City Hall to make sure their message was heard. Business owners, students and others say they want city leaders to know that people should have the freedom to chose whether to wear a mask and that it should not be mandated by the government. Demonstrators chanted \u201cfacts not fear\u201d as they marched in a circle Monday. Midwest Public Health Coalition spokesman David Waterman claims there\u2019s no science that wearing a mask is going to stop COVID-19 or any kind of bacterial or viral infection. City leaders disagree.<\/p>\n BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 A federal judge has dismissed part of a lawsuit by a New York City woman who was severely injured in an explosion while protesting the Dakota Access oil pipeline in North Dakota four years ago. U.S. District Judge Daniel Traynor dismissed claims of defamation against law enforcement officials who made public statements blaming the woman for her own injury. Sophia Wilansky suffered an arm injury in a violent clash between protesters and police. Protesters allege the blast was caused by a concussion grenade thrown by officers, but law enforcement said it was caused by a propane canister that protesters rigged to explode. Wilansky is seeking millions of dollars and her claims in the lawsuit of alleged excessive force, assault, negligence and emotional distress are still pending.<\/p>\n In sports\u2026<\/p>\n COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (AP) \u2014 North Dakota is the consensus No. 1 team in college hockey, with the sport set to restart after an eight-month pause due to the pandemic.

University Monday at Harold Newman Arena.<\/p>\n Jamestown improved to 2-0 while the Blue Hawks were playing their first game of the season.<\/p>\n Dickinson State had the lead early on, going ahead 14-8 after a Shali Sheridan three-pointer with 5:23 left in the first quarter. Macy Savela<\/a> (SO\/Mountain Iron, MN)\u2019s three-pointer on the next Jimmie possession sparked a 7-0 run that put UJ back in front by a point.<\/p>\n Rodakowski scored eight points in the second quarter as Jamestown capitalized on seven Blue Hawk turnovers and held the visitors to 41 percent shooting in the quarter. The Blue Hawks committed 30 turnovers in the game, leading to 31 UJ points.<\/p>\n UJ took a six-point lead into the break and opened the second half on a 10-2 run that extended the lead to 14 points.<\/p>\n DSU would get as close as ten with 6:42 remaining in the third, but a\u00a0pair of Kia Tower<\/a> (SO\/Bigfork, MN) free throws with 44 seconds left in the third capped off a 21-7 run, making it 68-44 and essentially putting the game out of reach.<\/p>\n Twelve of DSU\u2019s 18 fourth-quarter points came at the foul line as the Jimmie defense forced the Blue Hawks into 3 of 15 shooting for the quarter, including 0-for-7 from three-point range.<\/p>\n DeMars shot 7-of-11 overall and made four of her six three-pointers. Rodakowski was good on nine of her 11 shots.<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/csinewsnow.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/GarbageTruck-Jamestown-300x202.jpg\")
