The Lady Warriors and Caledonia faithful once again descended upon the Rochester Mayo Civic Center on Thurs. Nov. 5th for the 1AA Section Semifinal between Caledonia and Triton.

SCFF donates $15k to the United Way of Steele County

The annual meeting of the Steele County Agricultural Society took place Thursday at the Steele County Community Center. During the event, bylaws were amended, new board members were elected and fair facts and figures were shared. However, perhaps the most impactful moment of the evening was the presentation of a $15,000 check to the United Way of Steele County. Steele County Free Fair General Manager Scott Kozelka deviated from the plan slightly as United Way of Steele County President Annette Duncan had her daughter with her and he wanted to get her home. Kozelka discussed the impact the Steele County Free Fair has in the community and thanked volunteers, superintendents, fair families and their partners without whom he said they could not accomplish what they do. He said that more than 33 nonprofit organizations benefit from the fair through monetary donations as well as through the donated use of their facilities throughout the year. Kozelka said that as he enters his 10th year with the fair, he looks back to eight years prior when he and Steele County Commissioner and newly elected SCFF board member Jim Abbe decided to ask for Duncan’s assistance with their grandstand. He said in the
