         The Creston Rodeo Queen and Junior Queen Dinner/Dance this past Saturday was fantastic :::  great food and well attended. It is important that our young people have somewhere to go and something to do. The Creston 4H did a great job with the food.   It is good to see support for this important fund raiser - the community building fund.
