The Gold-Burg Lady Bears continued their quest to get a win on Tuesday, traveling to Prairie Valley in District 2A-10 action.
However, Gold-Burg found itself on the business end of a straight-set loss 27-25, 25-19, 25-22.
Prairie Valley improved to 5-26 with a 2-10 in 2A-10 while Gold-Burg dropped to 0-25, 0-12.
“This was a very important game for both us and Gold-Burg” said Lady Bulldogs coach Jeannie Carpenter. “We worked very hard leading up to this game, knowing that they were working just as hard.”
Gold-Burg head volleyball coach Lyndsey Shaw chimed in.
“It wasn’t our greatest performance of the season,” she said. “But, it was still very competitive.”
The match certainly started out competitively, with Prairie Valley taking the first set 27-25. Both teams had leads in the second and third sets, but it was the Lady Bulldogs who prevailed in the end.

Brew up a ‘cuppa’ tea with items from your yard

Published

on

A few years ago, if someone had suggested that I would be brewing tea from orange peels, fig leaves, and the assortment of wild plants flourishing in my yard, I would have giggled in disbelief. My perception of tea was limited to the neatly packaged bags sold at the store, each little bag a promise of convenience.
I still vividly recall a few memorable trips to Great Britain, where I savored the robust flavor of a PG Tips tea bag—moments like that felt exquisitely sophisticated to me! The British, with their ritual approach and passion for creating the perfect cuppa, truly have mastered the art of tea.
