This year for graduation, Deputy Tiedemann surprised the classes with all new footballs, basketballs, soccer balls and kickballs to be used at recess. They were also treated with root beer floats served up by members of The Goodhue County Sheriff’s Office command staff. Students then wasted no time putting the new equipment to good use on the playground!
