VALLEY CITY, N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – Valley City Public School teachers have workshops Monday and Tuesday with classes beginning Wednesday this week. Returning to school in the fall is an exciting time for rekindling relationships and resuming class work.

Safety; with school beginning many traffic patterns including cars, buses, bikes & pedestrians will be changing. Please be aware some intersections will have heavier traffic and some roads will have traffic that wasn’t there during the summer. Please be safe.

This Saturday August 27th the Dakota Riders will host The Hill Climb that was postponed because of wet grounds during Rally in the Valley. Registration is from 6am to 9am that morning with competition beginning at 10:00am. Thank you Dakota Riders & best wishes for great weather.

Breckenridge High School 50-year graduates have their Class Reunion on a Friday night followed by a School Reunion for all who have had their 50-Year Reunions the next night. This year a gal from the class of 1937 attended, she is 103. Seemingly, conversations with former classmates & friends flow from where they left off years ago. Please take advantage of any opportunity you have to reconnect with former classmates & friends; you’ll be glad you did.
