Sugar River Euchre

Twenty-four card players invaded Kleeman's Bar & Grill last Thursday night to show off their skills in the Sugar River League's Mid-Winter Tournament. Once partners were drawn, the chest thumping began. Which couple would dominate the tournament and which would go down in flames? By the end of the third round only two couples were still standing tall with a perfect night so far. But in the fourth round, John Baumgartner and Laurel Grindle fell off the platform by securing just 9 points, ending their hopes of a perfect score.

Cats Nip Knights in Last Second Thriller!

Friday, January 7, 2022. Outside it was a blustery, cold, Wisconsin-kind of winter night. But inside the New Glarus gym it was (cue the music), “A Hot Time in the Old Town Tonight”, as the Belleville - New Glarus rivalry unfolded on the basketball court. Neither cold nor COVID could keep fans away as each town packed the gym to near capacity, with people and with energy.
