GRUNDY CENTER – Abby Hamann and the Grundy Center volleyball team have been trying to exert maximum effort in practice.
  
The Spartans entered the season as the 12th-ranked team in Class 2A by the Iowa Girls High School Athletic Union, but hard work is already paying off.
  
Grundy Center handled No. 4 Hudson in a straight-set victory for the finale of the Spartan Volleyball Invite at Grundy Center High School last Tuesday.
  

With a steady growth in enrollment over the past few years, the Dike-New Hartford School District has big plans to grow along with their student population.  
 
Last week, the district unveiled an extensive $17.2 million facilities improvement plan that would make major improvements at both the Dike and New Hartford campuses.
 

When Julie Johnson and her husband Joe first started Heart and Solutions counseling agency, it was just the two of them working out of a small office at the pharmacy in downtown Grundy Center. Over the next five years, the business kept growing and expanding, with offices opening up all over the state and more than 50 employees on the payroll.
 
Going back to where it all began, the Johnsons are solidifying their commitment to Grundy Center - their founding location - by moving their business to main street.
 

In an effort to promote safety and fight prescription drug abuse, the Reinbeck Pharmacy is now offering free drug take back on all medications.
 
During normal business hours, community members may bring expired or unused medications into the pharmacy and place them in the blue MedSafe box for disposal.
 
The MedSafe box, which was set up on August 17th, helps the community safely dispose of medication.
