We're celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month! From September 15 to October 15, we come together to honor and celebrate the rich cultural contributions of Hispanic and Latinx communities.


Scheels kicked off the back to school season with a fun scavenger hunt for families to complete within our store. Families were also entered into a giveaway drawing for a $500 gift card for themselves and a $2,500 check for their school!
We won!! Way to go, Ivan!!! Thank you, Scheels!!!






As we wrap up this long weekend, we wanted to remind students of the importance of safety, especially as you walk or ride your bike or scooter to school. We made a video with the Rochester Police Department with a few reminders: https://youtu.be/x1kYWW081ng?si=K7MJQdDL3Jz_ybxv
