Big winners

It was a good night for both local football teams, as they celebrated their homecomings with big, big wins.

The evening's wins began at Lenzner Stadium, where Liz Grambo was named Avonworth's homecoming queen. The Antelopes honored her crowning with a 35-0 win over Riverview. Quarterback Brian Vales and running backs Ryan Schmid and Ricky Lawniczak gave the crowd something to cheer about in impressive performances. Schmid returning the opening kick-off of the second half a long 70 yards for a touchdown. Vales ran in for one score, and threw a 24-yard pass to Lawniczak for another.

A recipe for success

A celebration tomorrow on Lincoln Avenue will go far beyond simply marking the 65th anniversary of Bellevue’s oldest family business.

It also will commemorate an “American-as-apple-pie” recipe for success, as baked up by Lincoln Bakery owner Joe Porco, who purchased the business from his father-in-law, Andy Slezak, in 1990.

The recipe that has worked so well for him throughout the decades? Lots of hard work, quality service and products, dedicated employees and loyal customers.

Lincoln had already been established for 10 years when Slezak purchased it in 1945.
