an economic standpoint so he encourages everyone to aLend the ballgames as well as roll out the red carpet to hundreds and hundreds of visitors; many of them first Fme.
A total of 106 high school basketball teams from Missouri and Iowa will converge on Trenton and the North Central Missouri College campus over the holiday break as a part of the 11th annual High School Holiday Hoops. Sponsored by the North Central Missouri College FoundaFon, this year’s event brings the most schools ever to the annual event and conFnues to grow as the largest high school holiday basketball shoot-­‐out in the enFre state.
It is esFmated that over 1,800 student/athletes will parFcipate in Holiday Hoops 2015 and literally hundreds of others will accompany the teams as family, school personnel and fans. “This event ranks right up there with the Missouri Day FesFval” says Maxey “ as one of the two largest events in the community, only this spans over an 11 day period with many folks returning more than one day to enjoy outstanding high school basketball at its best.” All games will be played on the campus of NCMC, and over 300 community volunteers will provide the necessary manpower to support the event in addiFon to a 17 member commiLee that meets almost monthly to organize the outstanding program. Many teams will spend the night in Trenton while others will be driving in and out allowing for local businesses to benefit from the event with lodging, meals, fuel and shopping. Steve Maxey, director of Holiday Hoops says this program is not only a huge markeFng opportunity for NCMC but benefits the enFre region from Teams from as far as Des Moines, Iowa to the north and Pilot Grove, Warrensburg and Knob Noster, Missouri to the south will make the trip to Trenton….a total of 58 different high schools will be represented. Holiday Hoops
Tip off for the event is December 18th with games conFnuing up through January 2, 2016 allowing for breaks for the holidays and no play on Sundays. For event quesFons, contact Maxey at 359-­‐7244 or call the College FoundaFon Office at 359-­‐3948, extension 1403.

Shop Local
As you begin or continue your holiday shopping,
would you consider keeping more of your money
locally here in Trenton? If you think about it, most
things we need we can get here in Trenton. Some of the
same items we purchase in other towns end up costing
the same amount of money once you drive to and from
another location and spend the “saved” money in gas
or diesel.

cott Rasa knows all too well
about traumatic injuries,
and is fanatical about safety
on his farm and in all his businesses.
The Lafayette County, Mo.,
farmer’s cousin and great-grandfather were both killed in tractor
accidents, but it is one a little closer to home that sticks in his mind
the most and proves that even
careful people have accidents.
In 2005 while driving a skidsteer loader, Rasa accidently
backed over his father’s foot, causing severe injuries that almost
cost his foot. However, LifeFlight

Rasa recognized the value of
having such an important publicsafety organization near his family and his community. In 2010, he
partnered with LifeFlight Eagle
to build a new base on his farmland just east of Odessa, near Interstate 70 and the intersection of
Highways M and O.
Rasa built a state-of-the-art
climate-controlled hangar facility
that now houses one of LifeFlight
Eagle’s Bell 407 helicopters and
its round-the-clock f light team,
which consists of a pilot, f light
nurse and f light paramedic.
The new Lafayette County base
