🎉 An Intro to Life 2025 🎉 Aubrey Benson and Samantha Sprenger, two seniors from Valentine High School, along with seven teachers from the local communities organized an impactful event on Wednesday, November 19, 2025, called “An Intro to Life”. This event was for all the sophomores from the following schools: Ainsworth, Thedford, Keya Paha, Rock County, Cody-Kilgore, and Valentine. The seven teachers included: Juli Murphy, Tricia Anderson, Misty Downing, Liz Ravenscroft, Jamie Taylor, Alana Cardinal, and Janet Shelbourn. We ended up with over 50 volunteers for this event to serve the 100+ students. The day was focused on preparing students for their future with a strong emphasis on understanding financial responsibilities. They were given a life scenario complete with a job, family situation, debt challenges, and investment opportunities for their future. There were 13 different budgeting stations that the students had to visit. They made choices about spending and finished with a zero-based budget (every dollar was assigned a job). They also visited life skills stations which included simple things like college dorm life, sewing on a button, counting back change, insurance…etc. These stations helped to teach them what might occur in their future. There was a CliftonStrengths session as well, which taught them how they can use their strongest attributes to help them succeed in life. Each student took a CliftonStrengths assessment about two weeks prior to the event to figure out their top five strengths. Finally, they had a tire and auto station that taught them the basics of vehicle ownership. This hands-on approach gave the sophomores insights into budgeting and the importance of financial planning which will help prepare them for their life journey. We would love to thank our local community for the amazing support. We appreciate the financial contributions, but even more, the hours you donated to connect with, communicate with, and encourage the development of our youth. The Sandhills is a pretty fabulous village!

Krispie Kreme lovers. We received very unfortunate news late yesterday afternoon. The Krispie Kreme store in Omaha Nebraska is unable to fill our order for pickup today, October 30. We are working hard to get another pickup date for our fundraiser. We will notify you as soon as we have confirmed a day. Please know this is out of our hands and we are at the mercy of the Omaha Krispie Kreme store.
