This story takes us back earlier in the month of May when the ROCORI Varsity Softball girls took on the Sartell Sabres in game held in Cold Spring.  Kendra Plantenberg was on the mound and the Spartans came out early to lead the game.  There's some great plays back and forth with ROCORI fighting hard to stay with the Sabres.  Plantenberg is eventually replaced by Senior Sadie Pfannenstein but in the end, the Spartans bats could not hold pace with the Sartell Sabres.

Where Did The "WELCOME TO COLD SPRING" Sign Go?

It Used To Be Right Here...?

Can you remember the beautiful granite sign that used to mark your passage through the town of Cold Spring?  It was located across from the Granite Company on the edge of the motel property just west of the Sauk River on Highway 23.

Fortunately, we still have a picture of it.  Now do you remember?

This story explores the mystery of where this sign ended up after the expansion of Highway 23 was completed.  Does the sign still exist or was it destroyed during construction?  If it's still around, why has it not been relocated to a new home?  Can you solve the mystery?

In this story you’ll meet ROCORI golf coach Paul Court. Coach Court tells us about the exciting program that ROCORI is building. The team is comprised of many young players that are very much, equally talented. Due to the realignment of the sections this year, it is quite possible that the ROCORI golf team could make a splash in the post season. Thanks to Coach Court for the time and best of luck to the team in the section tournament.
