Hoover Elementary Pizza Party

In October Boston's Coon Rapids donated pumpkins to the four 2nd grade classrooms at Hoover Elementary. Each student decorated a pumpkin which was displayed (90 pumpkins total) at Boston's.  Our guests kindly voted for their favorite pumpkin and we awarded the top 2 students classrooms with a pizza party!  When the pizzas were delivered yesterday the students were polite and incredibly grateful, although we maintain that the students did all of the hard work! As we put out the pizzas we received endless hugs and thanks. What a terrific group of students and how COOL are their teachers?!  Check out the pics!




 Winner #1-Congrats!

2012 Daytona 500 Commercial


The First Daytona 500

On February 22, 1959, Daytona International Speedway hosted the first Daytona 500. The posted awards for the "500-Mile International Sweepstakes" totaled $67,760. A field of 59 cars took the green flag for the start of the 200-lap race. A crowd of 41,000 was on hand to witness the beginning of another chapter in the history of racing in Daytona.

The finish of the race also went into the history books. The finish was too close to call, but Johnny Beauchamp went to Victory Lane and savored the celebration although the results were posted as "unofficial."

Sixty-one hours later, Lee Petty was the winner in what appeared to be a dead heat between Petty and Beauchamp - with the lapped car of Joe Weatherly making it a three-wide finish at the checkered flag. A clip of newsreel footage proved that Petty was the winner by a few feet.
