Sugar River Euchre

Harley Blue Express, now the Starlight Express after the bar’s name change, didn’t even make a whistle stop as they flew by the Trolls hiding under the trestle at 66 mph. Once again, for the second week in a row, all four Express couples broke the 100 barrier. Dale Herfel and Steve Hoffmaster had only one loss as they raced down the track to end the night with 117 points, this week’s high score. Tracy Haag and Dave Steinhauer also tore up the track at 113 mph.

Prior to getting on the bus, the team was sent off by the elementary school students. Every class made a banner and they lined the halls to cheer the team on as they passed by.
