Fall is here, so be sure to turn your clocks back on Sunday, October 30th at 2 AM.  That means we will get an extra hour of sleep on Saturday night, but I guess some of us will just stay up late and lose it anyway.  I always wonder how many people will arrive at church an hour earlier when we change our clocks back?

The Cromwell-Wright Hjalmar Alto American Legion Auxiliary is planning a special Thank You project for all our current service men and women.  In order for your loved ones to be included, please confirm that we have their current address.  Please contact Marcella Dahl at 357-3167 or Carolyn Krogh at 644-3670.

The first ever Meatloaf Supper held at Bethlehem Lutheran was a huge success.  There were over 175 people in attendance and the food was fantastic.  Many people have asked for the meatloaf recipe, so here it is. It was contributed by Marian Larsen of Tamarack Lake.

MARIAN’S (SUE’S) CHURCH MEATLOAF

Mix together and then put in the bottom of a pan.

1/2 Cup Brown Sugar
1/2 Cup catsup

Then, mix the rest of the ingredients together and put in the same pan.

1 and 1/2 lbs ground beef
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs
3/4-cup cracker crumbs 1 small onion-chopped
1 &1/2 teaspoon Salt Dash of pepper
1/4 Teas. Ginger

Bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees, Put on a platter and pour sauce (degrease the sauce first) from the bottom of the pan over the meatloaf.

You can put the next Church supper on your calendar, too.  The Annual Hunter’s Supper with Turkey and all the trimmings will be held at Bethany Lutheran Church in Cromwell on Friday, November 4th serving from 3 - 7 PM.

Hunting Season will start on Saturday, November 5th and that will also be the day set aside for the Annual Cromwell Community Arts and Craft Sale at the school in Cromwell beginning at 9 AM.  Contact Peggy Olson at 644-3746 or Pauline Strand at 644-3713 to sign up for a table or if your group would like to sell the admission tickets.

Jenna Shelerud, daughter of Susan and Tom Shelerud, broke the school record for the most points ever attained in the history of the Cloquet, Carlton, Esko Diving Team over the past week.  She was judged on difficulty of the dives by five judges and had the most number of points.  She is the granddaughter of Sulo and Delores Walli of Wright.

The Kid’s Plus After School Program is in need of size- F Crochet Hooks for a project they are starting.  If you have any, or yarn, please donate them to the school.

There will be a Picture Retake Day on November 1st beginning at 1 PM at the school.  You can also come in if you didn’t make it in for the regular picture day.

That’s all from Ubiquitous Lake and Hello to the folks who work at the Sunshine Closet in Moose Lake.

Wright News by Jennie K. Hanson October 3, 2005

As I sit down to type this week’s news, I am reminded of the beauty of the earth.  I went for a mile walk this morning and the trees are in all their fall glory.  The reds, oranges, yellows and greens seem so spectacular at this time of year.  I know they won’t last long, especially if we get a rain and wind storm, but just seeing them every year is always is so wonderful. The ladybugs are also another reminder that fall is coming.  They seem to be trying to come in the houses again.  I guess there is a way to prevent them from coming in, but your house has to be sprayed by professional.  Jay and Theresa French have had this treatment and they say it works.

Andrew Joseph Kachinske, son of Sara and Jake Kachinske from Rural Wright was born on September 17, 2005 at 10 lbs, 5 oz.  He has an older sister Elisabeth Trinity.  Little Andrew’s grandparents are Bud and Linda Lehti, Joe Kachinske, and Lynn Ketchum, great grandparents are Dorothy Groth, Clem and Ethel Kachinske, and Jeff and DeAnna Vichorek. Little Andrew was also baptized at St. John’s on October 2nd with Scott and Christie Lehti as his sponsors.

Brody James Goranson, infant son of Becka and Aaron Goranson, was baptized at St. John’s Lutheran Church on Sunday, October 2, 2005.  His sponsors were Scott and Christie Lehti.  Little Brody also has 3 sisters: Sydney, Alex, and Jordan.

Katelyn Grace Taplin, daughter of Suzanne and Dave Taplin, was born on September 28, 2005 at home. She was 21 1/2 inches long and weighed in at 10 lbs 1/2 oz.  She was lovingly welcomed into her family by her parents, her sisters, Hannah, age 9, Elizabeth, age 2, her brother Josh, age 8, and her grandparents Lee and Marilyn Tippett of Wright and Gene and June Taplin of Cohasset.  Mother and baby are doing fine.

The Cromwell-Wright Football Team sure is doing well.  So far they are 5-0. There are only a few games left, so please try to come out and attend them. They play at Floodwood on October 7th, then Isle at home on the 13th and at Wrenshall on the 19th.  Let’s keep this winning streak going.  Great job coaches and team!

There will be a Meatloaf Supper with all the trimmings at Bethlehem Lutheran Church in Wright on Friday, October 7th serving from 5 - 7 PM.  Come out for supper and then go to the football game in Floodwood.

There is only one more home volleyball game this year.  It will be held on October 14th vs. Carlton.  Let’s support our gals this year, too!

Are you in need of tomatoes?  Just give me a call, we have plenty to share and also have neighbors that are willing to share there’s, too.

The Annual Hunter’s Supper will be held at Bethany Lutheran Church in Cromwell on November 4th.  More details about that later.

I’d like to wish a belated Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary to Stan and Judy Davis. A party was held in their honor at their home on September 10th. It seems that the older I get, the younger people seem who are celebrating their 50th anniversaries.  How does that work?

That’s all the news from Lake Winteriscoming and Hello to all the families of new babies.
