Southeast CASA is a 501 c (3) non-profit organization, providing advocacy services for abused and neglected children from Yankton, Clay, and Bon Homme Counties who are involved in the foster care and family court systems. CASA’s highlytrained volunteers advocate for the children in these difficult situations, providing each child with a voice in Court. Our mission is to ensure that the best interests of a child are promoted as the Court determines where the child will have a safe, permanent home. The Golf Ball Drop for CASA has 2,000 individually numbered golf balls which will be dropped from an extended fire truck ladder onto the grassy area east of the water treatment plant. Raffle tickets corresponding to the golf balls will be sold for $5 each or 5/$20. There are 17 chances to win $100, and one chance to win $500! Ticket holders do not need to be present to win. A children’s activity takes place following the measurements. Kids will pick up as many golf balls as they can, each earning a prize for their help. CASA will weigh each bag, and a larger prize will go to the child in each category who gathers the most balls. As a local non-profit organization, Southeast CASA relies on local support to help every child who needs a CASA advocate. You can provide CASA services for abused and neglected children through your participation in this fun activity!

Peterson said he had issues with making a policy more lenient when the board had just approved a change to the employee policy regarding absences. The change he was referring to was in the classified staff handbook, where employees will now be notified by email if they have missed a punch. They will also be allowed four missed punches before any disciplinary action will be taken. Other business at the meeting included: • A report on the auxiliary gym floor at the high school.
