Today's Opinions

By Rick Kraft

My octogenarian parents came to visit for a week. As we talked about the “good ol’ days” I found myself reminiscing about the world that I spent my youth in.

I got to thinking about my children and the world that they live in today. I realized that my children are missing out on life as I enjoyed it growing up. Things that I looked forward to, my children don’t even know existed. My children are living each year three decades behind mine. Things sure have changed in just one generation. Those were the days.

The Mora Valley Basketball 14U team from Mora competed in the first-ever USA Basketball 14U National Tournament held in Indianapolis. Although they did not place, they were recognized for their outstanding competitiveness and sportsmanship by the USA Basketball national coaching team and event directors.

The team would like to send out a great big thanks to Mora Presbyterian Church, sponsoring businesses and all of the community members in Mora and Las Vegas.
