• Football: Gregg chosen Most Valuable Athlete for Ponies (hometownsource.com) — Stillwater Ponies linebacker Gus Gregg has been named the team’s Most Valuable Athlete after a season that also saw the squad earn a Gold Academic Award and raise nearly $22,000 for Tackle Cancer. The article recaps Stillwater’s 3-6 season, standout individual stats, school records, postseason honors, and the team’s tribute to legendary coach George Thole. 
• Back in time: Modern Woodmen of America (hometownsource.com) — Stillwater’s long tradition of fraternal organizations once included a thriving Modern Woodmen of America camp that met in Woodmen’s Hall on South Main Street. This historical look traces how the Stillwater and South Stillwater (now Bayport) lodges grew, supported local families, fielded drill teams, and eventually faded, while the broader organization evolved into today’s insurance-focused Modern Woodmen.
