Three-member teams are being created, comprised of local businesses and organizations interested in a fun, fast-paced competition to fill the shelves of the Manning Food Pantry. The Manning Rotary is bringing back the grocery store grab, Pack the Pantry, on Tuesday Oct. 23. Each team will be given five minutes to run the aisles at Heartland Market on West Street and get as close as they can to a $250 total at checkout without going over. The teams will then be responsible for purchasing the items in their cart for the food pantry. The winning team will be rewarded with a trophy and bragging rights for the next year. Team entry forms are due to Kara Havick or Katie Wall by Monday, Oct. 15. Contact details for registration can be found included below.

Local Teacher Bringing Art To The Forefront At Oktoberfest In Manning

IKM-Manning’s new high school and middle school art teacher, Mike Roate, is bringing some fun and fresh new ideas to this weekend’s Oktoberfest celebration at the Hausbarn. Before coming to Manning, Roate taught at Clarinda for about seven years, where he began initiatives to bring the school and the community together through art projects. This weekend, he will be doing the same as he challenged each art class to create pumpkins to serve as decorations, and then to sell to attendees. Each class will be working on a unique pumpkin design, Roate says, with the Intro to Art students conveying an emotion through a cartoon face. The 3D class will be building one out of paper mache and the ceramics students will make a spooky pumpkin through a relief technique. The students aren’t the only ones providing some artistic entertainment for Oktoberfest, Roate himself will be on site beginning at 4 p.m. to sell both black and white and color caricature sketches. The accomplished art teacher has a long history of doing caricature sketches and has been the featured artist at art shows, fairs and festivals in a six-state area since 1996. He has worked at Adventureland, Arnolds Park, Oldsmobile Nationals, World of Wheels, the Illinois State Fair and the Other Art Show at the Des Moines Art Fest. Oktoberfest will also feature a keg tapping at 5 p.m., followed by a home brew contest, German music and dancing until about 10:30 p.m.

The IKM-Manning Community School District is searching for volunteers to serve on their School Improvement Advisory Committee (SIAC). The SIAC generally meets twice annually to analyze assessment data and make recommendations to the school board regarding educational needs, student learning, long-term goals and bullying prevention. Ideally, membership on the committee would consist of a wide-range of individuals that represent the diversity of the district, including: socio-economic status, racial and ethnic groups, gender, disability status and age. People wanting to volunteer should be willing to express diverse points of view, display open-mindedness, respect the opinions of others and have an interest in the district’s success. The first SIAC meeting will be held on Monday, Nov. 5 at 6:30 p.m. in the high school library. Willing individuals are asked to contact Superintendent, Trevor Miller, prior to that meeting through the contact points included with this story on our website.
