Date Change for the North Country Classic

April 17th  - 4th, 5th and 6th grade Girls and Boys

April 18th - 7th, 8th and 9th/Silver Girls and Boys

We have had some changes to the dates of the North Country Classic

that were out of our control. The Grand Rapids HS had a schedule

conflict with the original date of April 10th and 11th. We had to

move it to the next weekend April 17th and 18th. Also the Itasca County

DARE program on the 18th of April is taking all the 5th grade

students to a Twins game which would leave us without a lot of 5th

grade teams. So we made another adjustment and the finial dates are below.
