One Year Ago:

As part of DigElog ROCORI’s extended coverage of the 2nd annual Old Glory Run, we had a chance to catch up with John Swanson, one of the inspirations for the Old Glory Run. Swanson, a 10-year military veteran lost his leg in combat. Humble by nature, he often tries to avoid the spotlight but at the same time understands the importance of sharing his story. Like so many other veterans, he appreciates the efforts of people like Curt and Pam Karls that go the extra mile to help reintegrate returning soldiers back into society.

In this story, Swanson discusses how life has changed for him since the last time we saw him. He also shares how the Disabled American Veterans (D.A.V.) has helped with his medical issues over the past year. For those that are not familiar with the Old Glory Run, all proceeds from the event are donated to the Minnesota Chapter of the D.A.V. This is a must see story, and as the 4th of July approaches it is a great reminder of the sacrifices that others make for our freedom.

This Year

While it will be tough to top last year's event, the Karls as well as the other organizers of the Old Glory Run will do their best to do so. "We are truly excited to offer this event to those who support our troops and especially to all of the men and women in uniform - past and present. The Old Glory Run raised $16,000 in 2009 and $14,000 in 2008, which was donated to our local chapter of the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) organization. Our goal for the 3rd annual Old Glory Run is to raise $25,000 to help offset costs for a new van for the DAV. This van is used to provide free transportation for area veterans for medical appointments."

Capital Report with Rep. Larry Hosch update 3.3.2010

The States 1.2 billion dollar deficit... reduced to 894 million. Still no real movement to solve the big problem. Hosch blames a short time band aid approach instead of a long-term solution. Using one-time dollars just doesn't work in the long run. "It's like trying to pay your mortgage by winning the lottery.

River Lakes Stars Fall to Sauk Rapids/Rice Storm

 

Last month the River Lakes Stars traveled to Sauk Rapids to take on the Storm. Sauk Rapids/Rice always has a tough team and this year is no different. The Storm quickly jumped out to a lead and never looked back. After Sauk Rapids scored the first for goals, the River Lakes Stars answered with a goal of their own in the second period. However the high flying offense of Sauk Rapids was too much for the Stars as they finished with three more unanswered goals putting the final score at 7-1.

DigElog ROCORI Exclusive Interview With Bob Brink Part Three

       *QUICKTIME         *iPOD          *CELL         *You Tube

In the third part of our story with Boy's Basketball Coach Bob Brink, he discusses the importance of teaching fundamentals as well as building complete players at ROCORI. Brink also shares how these fundamentals are not only taught at the high school, but they are also taught throughout the entire ROCORI basketball program. In building the basketball program from the ground up, it allows Brink to focus more on the "flex offense" that he runs- but no matter what, Brink will always focus on the fundamentals.

Last Friday, Coach Brink picked up career win number 900 in dramatic fashion as the Spartans won the game on two free throws with under one second left in the game. Watch this story as Coach Brink and his wife Judy are honored in front of the home crowd. When asked if he could reflect on his personal accomplishments, Brink always shifts the focus to his great staff, the system he runs, and the wonderful opportunity that he was given in ROCORI.
