This week, March 3-7, Valley City\u2019s Jefferson Elementary School is celebrating \u201cKindness Week\u201d.  Themes to be commemorated daily throughout the week are \u201cSportsmanship Day\u201d, \u201cBrighten the World With Kindness Day\u201d, \u201cBe a Hero Day\u201d, \u201cBe Uniquely Kind Day\u201d and end the week with \u201cSelf Love Day\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 69th North Dakota Legislative Session is ongoing.  You can track bills of interest at: https:\/\/ndlegis.gov\/legislative-bill-tracking-system<\/a>.  If you have questions or comments, you are encouraged to contact your District 24 Legislators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

March is \u201cNational Nutrition Month\u201d.  While nutrition is important for all, we older folks will benefit greatly as well. We require fewer calories now though nutrient rich foods are extremely important for us.  A protein rich diet can help reduce the loss of muscle and strength!  Check with your doctor, City County Health, Barnes County Extension Office or the Valley City Barnes County Library for ideas that could work for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWithout referees, it is just a scrimmage\u201d!  Give back to the sports you love, become an official.  Officiating is like playing and coaching, you get to \u201ccompete\u201d.  Contact the North Dakota High School Activities Association (NDHSAA) at 701-845-3953.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
