The holidays have been the best of times and the worst of times for Sheyenne hometown boy Scott Westby. Planning party games for the annual Admissions holiday party at MSUM was a highlight of December for Scott! Candy canes and holiday-themed music trivia wooed his co-workers and placed each firmly in the festive spirit, too. Scott kindly brought a variety of potatoe chips to share, including his personal favorite: SpiceyNacho Doritos. However, it’s not all tinsel and fruitcake for Mister Westby, as his beloved co-worker and sometimes contributor to the New Rockford Transcript is moving offices. Scott is expected to miss his office pal terribly.
