DHS Volleyball, Football Teams Fall in Season Openers: Both Dorchester autumn sports teams lost their season opening contests late last week. The volleyball team, loaded with young talent, fell to East Butler. DHS will try to bounce back this week when the Longhorns host Palmyra and Weeping Water (Thursday, Sept. 2). The football team lost 28-46 against a tough Meridian team. Now the Longhorns must prepare for Pawnee City, which hasn't yet played a game this season.
Dorchester Gets Much-Needed Rain: In the past 24 hours, Dorchester has received much needed rain, which will help late-summer crops, gardens and lawns. Our village reports around 1.3 inches. That compares to just over 1.5 inches north of Crete and southwest of Wilber. See the NeRain map.
Power Will Be Turned Off Sept. 2: Village Hall has notified Dorchester residents that there will be a scheduled power outage beginning at 12:01 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 2 and lasting until 6 a.m. (this may be done sooner). Please plan accordingly. This is required as substation upgrades are made. Please refrain from excessive watering at this time.
