May Day
May Day is a traditional public holiday and is celebrated by many cultures on May 1st. In some countries it is an international workers day or Labor Day. This is a day of political demonstrations and celebrations. This idea began in Australia in 1856.
In the northern hemisphere May Day marks the end of winter and traditionally been an occasion for populous crazy celebrations. In the United States d
uring May Day people make May Day basket. The baskets are small and are usually filled with small treats or flowers. People then take them and put them on people’s door steps. The basket giver rings the door bell and runs away. When the receiver gets the baskets tries to chase the giver. If the person is caught, a kiss is exchanged.
May Day is celebrated in many countries like Bangladesh, Turkey, China, Syria, Taiwan, India, Germany, Great Britian, Ireland, Portugal, France, Bulgaria, Finland, Sweden, Americas/U.S, and Brazil.
In Germany, the people celebrate with festivals, and a maypole. A tradition that started the in the 16th century is a decocted tree or tree trunk, that is erected May1st. They also have the crowning of the May Queen.
May Day is a fun holiday all around the world. Every year we make May Day baskets and deliver them to our friends and family. The most exciting part is trying not to get caught. It you don’t do may baskets you should make them next year because it’s a lot of fun.

The Love For The Game!!
On March 26, 2011, was the AAU state volleyball tournament for the 7th and 8th grade select volleyball teams. They did a wonderful job representing the Harlan Cyclones.
AAU is one of the largest, non-profit organizations. Most of the work is volunteer. It is also the promotion of amateur sports and physical fittness. AAU stands for Ametuer Athetic Union.
The AAU tournament is for the teams who place either 1st or 2nd in a tournament that is played at the beginning of the season. The AAU tournament is separated into pool play and power pool, Depending on how you do in the first two rounds determines which final tournament you play in: bronze, silver, or gold. Our 7th grade Cyclones won their pool play. Then they won every game in power pool except for one against the Ankeny Aces. Overall, 7th grade got 5th and the 8th grade got 4th.
The AAU tournament this year was held in Ankeny, right outside of Des Moines. The 7th grade has been to the gold tournament 3 years in a row. The tournament is held in a different location every year.
This year the Cyclones had two players make the all- tournament team, one from 7th grade and one from eighth grade. Those two players are Taylor Frederick and Jess Schaben. The selection of the players that make the all tourney team are from observations throughout the day of the players’ abilities. Those two players both play as a middle hitter for the Cyclones.
The 8th grade and 7th grade both practice twice a week together. We work on transition, hitting, serving, passing, and setting. During this season, both teams have improved vigorously. It’s a team effort to help us improve. The 8th and 7th grade helps each other. It does not even seem that we are even in a practice because we just love the sport and have so much fun.
Our coaches for the 7th grade are Jenny Moser and Meg McGrath. The 8th grade coaches are Carrie Schaben and Chad Swanson.
We had a fun and very experencing season. We would like to thank our coaches for there time and patients.
