Raiders Undefeated With One Game to Go

Submitted by admin on Wed, 10/12/2022 - 8:07am

The Raiders started the week with a couple of important conference games in their battle to win Conference Champs. The Raiders first faced the Wisconsin Dells Chiefs at home during a hard fought, some would say, rivalry game. The Raiders fought strong in the first half, keeping their composure, but could not come out with a goal when the whistle blew at half. Knowing that losing this game might cost them Conference, the Raiders came out with a fiery intensity after halftime. A strong defense and a tremendous performance by Clayton Streiff kept the ball out of our net.

Woodford State Bank Cash Mobs

Submitted by admin on Wed, 10/12/2022 - 8:05am

Woodford State Bank has been hosting Cash Mobs for businesses since 2018. A Cash Mob is a way to help local businesses grow and keep communities thriving. Each month, Woodford State Bank chooses a local business to mob and that business gets to pick their favorite organization to donate a portion of the proceeds for the day. There is a “cash drop” designated at a certain time where money is given away to either spend at the business or donate to the organization. These “cash mobs” are promoted on social media. This supports the business, the organization, and the local community.
