On Saturday afternoon Sheridan Lady Generals Head Coach Frank McCarthy and several of his Lady Generals held the "Lady Generals Holiday Basketball Clinic" for girls grades 1st through 8th in the Bruce Hoffman Golden Dome.

Here, during one of the breaks Coach McCarthy talks to the 33 participants while Lady General Fallon Lewis, on the right, delivers liquid to those thirsty from the first 3 and a half hours of the 4-hour session.

At the end of the clinic the participants posed with the basketballs that were given to them along with some Lady General Posters. Do you suppose the girls had fun? Scroll down and judge for yourself.

You bet the girls had fun. And after this photo was taken they were off to get those new basketballs autographed by the Lady Generals.

Perhaps no one told this mallard duck that the Polar Bear Plunge is January 1st at Lake DeSmet - not on December 28th in Kendrick Park. Speaking of "The Plunge" the one on January 1, 2012 will mark the 25th anniversary of the Polar Bear Plunge.
