Wednesday, March 11, 2020 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Girls tennis gets large turnout By Rongi Yost Correspondent The Lady Outlaws ten- nis program had 25 girls come out for the sport this season, which will allow the program to field both a varsity and JV team. Returning to the varsity squad are seniors Hannah E z e l l , E m m a H o r n e r, Rheanna Salisbury, Ramsey Schar, Hallie Schwartz, Holly Werts; juniors Lauren Fitzke, Ellie Rush, and Sophie Silva; and sophomore Chloe Winter. All these young ladies earned varsity letters last year. Coaches are excited about the new talent that joined the team includ- ing seniors Quin Crowe, Allison Mansfield, Emma Maxwell, Mattie Mynatt, and Gracen Sundstrom; junior Maliah Mandal; sopho- mores Jenna Kizziar and Madison Pollard; and fresh- men Elana Mansfield, Ellie Mayes, Morgan Monrean, Josie Patton, Hadley Schar, Olivia Newton, and Catalina Chapman. All these young athletes are currently involved in intersquad competition and are vying for the 12 varsity positions. At this time it has not been decided who will be playing at the singles and doubles spots. Coach Alan Von Stein told The Nugget that all of the girls are enthusiastic and have very positive attitudes. He also noted that for many of the girls it is the first time they have picked up a tennis racket. Darci Fitzke and Rebecca Von Stein are helping out as assistant coaches and are working to develop a robust junior varsity schedule, which will allow playing time and skill-set improvement for the non-varsity talent. Von Stein said, <We are excited to help these young athletes develop a passion for the life-long sport of tennis.= The girls tennis squad will swing into action with a match at Ridgeview on Monday, March 16. Students to celebrate the arts at high school By Chloe Gold Correspondent Sisters High School will host the annual ARTifacts Night on Thursday, March 19, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. While this is the 23rd art benefit being held for Sisters High School, this year9s ARTifacts Night is only the third annual interactive art benefit of its kind. Sisters High School9s annual art benefit began 23 years ago, under the name <Coffee House= and was started by Mike Baynes, who was the art teacher at the high school through 2010. While the art benefit9s name has been changed to <ARTifacts= and is now an interactive exhibit, its purpose is still the same 4 to showcase the high school9s visual arts, as well as its musical art. This year 9s ARTifacts Night will feature a vari- ety of interactive stations, including potters9 wheels, painting, henna, shrink film accessories, and much more. Art students will be selling hand printed T-shirts as they did at last year9s ARTifacts, but with the addition of a tie- dye option. ARTifacts isn9t just inter- active exhibits; there will also be cupcakes made by the culi- nary class, guitars on show built by the luthier classes, and student art on display, includ- ing the senior art portfolios. The choir, band, and Americana Project classes will be providing the back- ground music for the evening. ARTifacts Night is held in the commons of Sisters High School, and has an entrance fee of $5 per person, or $20 per family. There will also be a silent auction during ARTifacts night this year, and its proceeds, as well as those from entrance fees, will go to the Visual Arts Program, the Visual Arts Senior Scholarship, and set design for the next musical the high school will put on in the fall of 2021. 2007 7 GMC YUKON XL 4X4 5.3 L, 3 row removable, boat rack, tow package, 137K miles Best Price!
