Partnering with the Signal American, 12 local businesses once again sponsored a fun springtime coloring contest for children from the youngest ages through fifth grade, with two 2024 winners, Kelsey Mordhorst and Kenneth Langdon, selected to each receive a grand prize new bicycle provided by Pioneer Express.
