Herky Turkey Community Dinner Served Record Number of Meals

Herky Turkey 2022

(KWNO)-The student councils at Winona Senior High School and Winona Middle School outdid themselves this year, serving 622 meals to community members during their annual Herky Turkey Community Dinner on November 10th.

The 622 meals that were available as a dine-in option in the WSHS concourse, as a drive-through option, and as a delivery option blew away their 2021 record of more than 500 meals.

The combined efforts of the student councils made it possible to raise $6,351 through business contributions and free-will donations from those in attendance.

The WSHS and WMS student councils would like to express their heartfelt gratitude to the WAPS School Nutrition staff for taking the time and care to prepare all of the food for over 600 people. They would also like to thank members of the WAPS maintenance staff, WAPS clerical staff, and teachers and educational assistants at all levels, including student council advisors Lisa Mullen (Winona Middle School) and Jackie Stevens (Winona Senior High School), who helped make the event a success. Helping hands make this event happen annually, and this year was no different.

A portion of West Broadway in Winona will be closing for about seven months. The closure starts April 7 and is part of the West Broadway Reconstruction project. According to the Office of Public Works, West Broadway will be closed to traffic from Hilbert Street to the railroad tracks between Jackson Street and South Baker Street. Vehicles westbound on Broadway are urged to turn off at South Baker to avoid having to turnaround near the tracks. Eastbound vehicles are recommended to turn off Broadway on Lee or Bierce Streets as the Hilbert Street intersection will be closed. A truck detour is planned on 5th Street. The closure is expected to last through October.

Winona Police have arrested a 17-year-old boy who allegedly shot another teenager in the eye with a BB gun. According to a WPD spokesperson, officers made the arrest Monday afternoon at a residence in the 150 block of East 8th Street. The boy did live there and was possibly hiding out from police. He's charged with second-degree assault and threats of violence. Investigators say last Saturday a group of teenagers was hanging out in the playground area at the old Madison School. A confrontation arose and the boy shot the girl in the eye with the BB gun from "two to three steps away." The spokesperson said the victim does not appear to be seriously injured as she was struck in the eyelid, and the BB did not puncture the eye.
