Dixon Park District selects name as renovation plans proceed.

The monster trucks will be featured Thursday, Aug. 15.

Sterling students graduate May 24; Dixon and Rock Falls seniors graduate May 26.

Dixon won the BIg Northern Conference meet and Forreston took third at the NUIC meet. That and more in the roundup.

The garage sale is a fundraiser for the club and all proceeds will go to local charities.

Registration will begin at 9:30 a.m. at St. Peter’s Lutheran Church parking lot, 601 N. Jackson St., with the ride commencing at 10 a.m. At Rockwood Park, hot dogs, drinks and treats will be served, compliments of Friends of the Parks Foundation.

Each year, Blooming on The Rock raises money for the gardens and other Dixon beautification efforts. This year's fundraiser is June 8.

The event will offer fun for all ages, including entertainment, food trucks on Saturday, games, tours of the REACT helicopter and MD-1 emergency response vehicles on Saturday and drawings for AirPod Pros and three $100 VISA gift cards.

This year’s fundraiser will be different in that whatever funds are generated over the course of a period of days will be matched by a generous benefactor up to $10,000
