  • Punching their ticket, knocking down the door

    Nov 1, 2018

    An eight-year long drought is over at Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa. How sweet it is! On Saturday, November 3 at Little Falls high school, a battle of volleyball heavyweights played out for almost two hours for a fiercely-challenged outcome. When match point was achieved, the result was a 3-1 win in favor of the 10th-ranked B-B-E Jaguars volleyball team. They defeated No. 5-ranked and defending section champion Pine River-Backus 25-22, 25-20, 18-25, 25-20 to advance to state for the first time since...

The final tally showed 790 no votes to 736 yes votes. In November 2010, the district passed a levy referendum 735 yes to 636 no. That took place about a year-and-a-half after a...

  • Scouting Medford

    Nov 1, 2018

    A terrific battle is coming on Friday, November 9 at Xcel Energy Center. In the 3 p.m. Class 1A state semifinal match, the Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa Jaguars volleyball team faces Medford for a berth in the championship match. Medford, unseeded, was unfazed by the specter of two-time defending state champion and No. 2-seeded Mayer Lutheran in their Thursday quarterfinal match. The Tigers fell behind 2-1 in sets, but they came out on absolute fire in game four, led 6-0 early and proceeded to smoke...

As announced early last week, the Belgrade-Brooten-Elrosa elementary school will host a Veterans Day program on Monday, November 12 at 10 a.m. at the main gymnasium.
