Two buildings in downtown Mount Ayr have been receiving face lifts this summer. The TImby building, formerly the Pheasant Run Steakhouse, has been tuck-pointed, had its east side painted and front remodeled in what will be an expansion of Smith Sports and Spirits, located just to the west of the Timby building. Another building between Mitchell Jewelry and The Office is being remodeled with a new look. Upstairs windows and a cupola have been restored and work is being done on the bottom half of the building front.

Ringgold County drivers did well in the races at Adams County Speedway in Corning again Saturday night, taking a first in the hobby stock class and a second in the late model racing. Les Elliott of Diagonal took his fifth win of the season in the hobby stock A feature race. Meanwhile, Paul Glendenning of Mount Ayr took second in the A feature race in the late model competition.

Three Raiders and one Raiderette were named to Pride of Iowa all-conference baseball and softball teams after the season completed this summer. Junior Michael Inloes was named as a first team all-conference outfielder, junior Dustin Larsen and freshman Lance Brown were named second team. For the Raiderettes, sophomore Alison Quick was named to the second team all-conference squad as an infielder.
