If there was any doubt that Sedona Red Rock High School’s girls basketball team would remain undefeated when it hosted North Pointe Prep on Saturday, Feb. 13, it was erased early.
The Scorpions dominated the game throughout, scoring as many points in the opening three minutes as the Falcons scored all game. In the end, Sedona was on the right side of a lopsided 92-14 final score, moving to 6-0 in the process.
Juneau, Alaska (KINY) - The Juneau Assembly has several matters up for public hearing and action during its regular meeting Monday evening.
An appropriation ordinance earmarks an additional $700,00 for the emergency individual assistance grant program. The current $2 Million appropriation is estimated to provide grants for 1,070 applicants. About 1,800 applicants remain. The $700,000 would provide awards to about 348 of them.
A companion ordinance takes $700,000 from an earlier appropriation for the hospital to purchase COVID-19 testing equipment. CARES Act funding in either case. This change would allow the funds to come from the hospital s appropriation rather than the city and borough s funds.
A related resolution directs that the $700,000 go lower income residents and exclude those who received housing assistance grants.
In a time of seemingly indefinite confusion, grief and unrest around the world, the smallest acts of kindness can inspire and replenish our faith in humanity. This was the sentiment I picked up when I spoke with 61-year-old Greg Davidson, a Galt community member for 30 years, kindhearted local volunteer, and now a recent âone man beautification crewâ as he calls himself.
During the month of December, Davidson rolled in his wheelchair all around Galt in a fundraising effort to raise $500 for the Sunshine Food Pantry affiliated with his church here in town.
âOriginally, I planned to match that $500 for a total $1,000 donation. My program really took off and, with the help of 36 sponsors, I raised $3,000 instead,â he said.
