November 2017

Want to support the Monticello Pony basketball teams? Like wings? You’re in luck! Any time you eat at the Fitchburg Buffalo Wild Wings location, at 6227 McKee Road, the restaurant will donate 10% of the bill to the Monticello basketball program. According to boys basketball coach Mark Olson, all you have to do is let your server know that you want to donate to Team D and they will add it to your order. The Home Team Advantage Program runs through March 18, 2018.

Three New Glarus Roboleague teams competed November 11th, at the 2017 Wisconsin First Lego League WolfPack Regional at Madison College.  The Hydrodynamics Challenge required teams to present an innovation or invention to solve a problem with the human water cycle and build a programmable robot to complete water related missions in the Robot Games.  
Congratulations to Quantum Immobilizers for earning the Robot Strategy and Innovation Award, nominations for Mechanical Design, Gracious Professionalism and advancing to the Sectional competition in December. 

Alternate Side Winter Parking begins on November 15, 2017, and ends March 31, 2018. This requires anyone parking a vehicle on a village street to park on the even side of the street on even days and the odd side of the street on odd days, which is enforced between 1:00 a.m. and 7:00 a.m. This means you should park on the side of the street where houses have even numbers on the even days and vice versa.
