VILLAGE OF IOLA FIRE CALL: On Friday, Oct. 6, around 3:30 p.m., Living Oaks and The Willows called the fire department about a freon leak in the hallway furnace. According to the facility’s Facebook page post, “No one was in danger but we evacuated the building and brought the residents down to Willows while the fire departments did their inspections. Our staff responded amazingly and because of our regular fire drills the residents were all evacuated in no time! Also a big thank you to the Hines family who happened to show up at the right time and were a big help!” In addition to Iola and Scandinavia fire departments, Manawa and Ogdensburg also responded.

CONFERENCE CHAMPS: The Iola-Scandinavia High School Varsity Football Team is the new CWC-Small champion. Congratulations!
