Thirteen distinguished individuals from across the state of South Dakota have been selected to receive the South Dakota High School Activities Association (SDHSAA) Distinguished Service Award for the 2016-17 school year.
Linda Whitney of Forestburg was the recipient of the award for Administrators.
Following a nomination process, the recipients of the Distinguished Service Award are selected by the SDHSAA Board of Directors.
The SDHSAA Distinguished Service Award program was established by the SDHSAA in 1976. The Distinguished Service Award is the highest recognition bestowed by the SDHSAA. It is designed to honor individuals who have made significant long-term contributions to the high school athletic and fine arts activities in our state.
Distinguished Service Award recipients are individuals whose contributions have had an impact on high school activity programs.
The Distinguished Service Award is presented to honor administrators (principals, superintendents and athletic/activity directors); Board of Education members; athletic and fine arts activities coaches and directors; contest officials for fine arts and athletic activities; and contributors to statewide high school activities. The recipients of this award have given outstanding service to the youth of the state through the high school athletic and fine arts activities programs.

On Thursday, June 16, the TL Rangers 4-H Club handed out free SDSU ice cream at the baseball games at Feistner Field in Woonsocket in celebration and promotion of June as National Dairy Month.
The club also took free-will donations for the Woonsocket Summer Rec programs.
The cold and delicious treat was loved by everyone who had some, as it was an incredibly hot and humid day, and the Woonsocket teams entertained everyone with some exciting baseball against Kimball/White Lake.
