The Atchison County Contest is set for Saturday, September 29th, 11 AM at the Good Intent Community just northwest of Atchison, Kansas. This year we boast 5 National Champions from our area, Donna Fairbanks, Ray Orok, Les Lohman, Ray Penning, and Bob Staley

We expect about 50 shuckers to participate in the annual Fund Drive for Maur Hill-Mt Academy High School. The Committee of Louis Regenstine, Charlie Wagner, and Bob Staley raised $3,000 to help with the school's expenses last year.
