Four members of the Wawasee FFA Chapter recently captured the 1997 State Soil Judging Contest team title. The contest was held in Spencer County near Tell City. More than 60 teams and nearly 300 individuals qualified through a series of county and area competitions. The winning Wawasee team included Kyle Wurtzel, first place individual overall; Rob Schlipf, seventh individual; Brian Warren, 15th individual; and Matt Grady, 28th individual. All four are seniors at Wawasee High School.
Nancy and Rob Gast, the owners of Freewheelin', 110 S. Washington St., Warsaw, were presented a commendation by Warsaw Community Development Corp. board member Pat Lucas. The award was presented in recognition of the beautification of their storefront.
Leesburg residents claimed they had one of the largest single rocks in the area.
Action against Warsaw High School pupils who make a practice of cutting across the court house lawn may be taken if the pupils continue to disregard the "keep off" the grass signs. Not only do the boys cut across the lawn, but they have been seen thumbing their fingers on their noses at county officials.
