A Time To Remember, Reflect & Appreciate... AARON & SETH

A MESSAGE FROM...

Erin Herberg
ROCORI HS Grad 2006
Written in 2009

Today marks the sixth anniversary of the ROCORI High School shooting.
  Six years… (now 7 years)

Please remember ROCORI today.

In your remembrance I ask you to celebrate –

Celebrate the life of Aaron Michael Rollins,
Celebrate the life of Seth David Bartell.

Celebrate your own life.

Everyone in this group shares a common bond because of unfortunate events. We carry a lesson in life we should remember every day of the year, not just today.
Take into account that life is precious. Recall what is important. Be thankful.

Remember…

Although it has been six years (now 7), we cannot forget and we must remember to honor and appreciate life.
Never forget…in losing something there is always something to gain.
Keep September 24th, 2003 in your thoughts and in your prayers today and always.

Prayer for their families.

Rest in Peace
Seth and Aaron – You remain alive in our hearts forever.

“We should give meaning to life. Not wait for life to give us meaning.”

"Love is stronger than death even though it cannot stop death from happening, but no matter how hard death tries it cannot separate people from love. It cannot take away our memories either. In the end, life and love are stronger than death."

~Norman Cousins

ROCORI BUILD receives Cold Spring Chamber donation

Wednesday, September 1, 2010
Cold Spring Chamber of Commerce
Cold Spring, Minnesota  USA

Each year the Cold Spring Area Chamber of Commerce sponsors a community breakfast as a part of the Hometown Pride day celebration in late July. Patrons who participate in the breakfast are encouraged to make a small donation at the door. This year all of the money collected at the door along with many sizable donations made by chamber members, added up for a total of $1,762.00.

This year's community cause that the $1,762.00 was donated to is the ROCORI Build Project, part of the Central Minnesota Habitat for Humanity organization.  Sometime during the next year, the ROCORI Build Project will be constructing a new home for a needy family somewhere in the "Land of ROCORI".  Jim Eiynck, co-chair of the ROCORI Build committee accepted the check along with a number of other committee members.  Vice President Bob Gerads of the Chamber, along with a number of other chamber members, formally presented the check to the ROCORI Build committee.

DigElog ROCORI Celebrates 5 Year Anniversary (TODAY!)

Some Old Favorites Since September 1, 2005

DONKEY BASEBALL ... July 2006 ... Richmond River Lake Days

Have you ever heard of Donkey Baseball before? There's a pitcher and a batter just like in the big leagues... but that's about as far as the normal game goes. Imagine playing a baseball game where in order to make your way around the bases you'd have to be riding a donkey. Imagine being in the outfield and finding the only way you can pass the ball from one player to another is by siting or riding a donkey. Then add to all this the personality of each of the donkeys and you have some of the most hilarious and funny video footage you have ever watched.

It's the world premiere of the "Star Gatherer", a opera commissioned to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the St. John's Boys' Choir. This story includes interviews with the composer, librettist, music director and lead adult actor.

***

It was a rain-soaked Bluegrass Music Festival this year at El Rancho Manana. We once again take a look at a few of the highlighted performers ranging from a four man group to a man who performs by himself. We also take a look at the different shops and stands that were there. Enjoy one of the best Bluegrass Festivals in the area.

It was 100 degrees outside, but inside the dome it was comfortable in the mid 70's.  Yes, there's a new Minnesota Twins stadium going to be built in the next couple years, but this was one day that our family was happy to watch Major League Baseball in a dome.

In this story you'll join the Kuss family and their participation in a game on Sunday, July 30th, 2006, when the Minnesota Twins faced the league leading Detroit Tigers.  You'll experience all the great fun of going to a baseball game in the HHH dome and you'll even see a fantastic come from behind win by the Twins in the bottom of the 8th.

This is an event that took place at ROCK-FEST last weekend in Rockville, MN.  Four teams compete to see who can get the most milk out of "Molly" the cow in 30 seconds.  This makes for some great fun and you'll be surprised how much milk one team got in the bucket in just 30 seconds.
