Event Description: 

The Minnesota Timberwolves will be hosting a basketball shooting contest (Wolves Shootout) during the festival on the basketball court. There are three age groups for the contest. The winner of each age bracket with the highest score wins a Timberwolves prize pack. If there is a tie, a winner will be drawn randomly between the players with the tie. Anyone will also have the chance to be entered into the Timberwolves Summer Sweepstakes in which there will be a drawing to win a pair of season tickets for the 2008-2009 season. To learn more about the contest rules go to http://lhrc.freeservers.com/Wolves_Shooting_Contest_Rules.pdf. We will also have the following activities: pony rides for kids under the age of 10 (which will be located near the playground), talent contest (pre-register at lhfest@yahoo.com), family fitness challenge (pre-register at lhfest@yahoo.com), pre-schooler sandcastle contest, hair painting, face painting, moonwalk, games, and more. Local businesses can have a display for a fee. The form is available at: http://lhrc.freeservers.com/2008blankdisplayrequest.pdf. Food will be sold by food vendors – one of the vendors will be serving Mexican food. We also have vendors for mini-donuts, snow cones and a BBQ vendor. Please check out our website (www.lhrc.freeservers.com/festival.htm) for more up-to-date information on both food vendors and activities.

Advise and Dissent: Sparkle Jones

What would you like to tell president-elect Barack Obama? Advise and Dissent features opinions on what the new president should be thinking and doing. This opinion came from Your Turn — Teens advise the next president on what youth need.

Abortion: I believe taking away a woman’s right to abortion is taking away her freedom. There are diverse reasons why abortion is the best option. There may be rape; few people want a reminder of a traumatic event. There may also be financial issues; many women just can’t afford children. Additionally, women with weak emotional states frequently turn to alcohol and drugs and this dependency leads to abuse and/or neglect of her kids … If a woman makes this call, or wants the option to make this call, why do people pass judgment? Hard decisions are based on beliefs and if you make a decision based on what you believe, then everyone should both accept and respect your decision. — Sparkle Jones, 17, Humboldt High School MORE »
