The South Winneshiek softball team closed out its regular season Friday with a tough loss to New Hampton, 9-4.

The Warriors scored two runs in both the second and seventh innings, but the Chickasaws scored at least two runs in three of the first four innings to earn the win.

It’s no secret that northeast Iowa is the home to plenty of hidden gems. One of those hidden gems is Iowa Rotocast Plastics, Inc., in Decorah.

Nestled near the bluffs and close to the Upper Iowa River in the small community of Freeport, Iowa Rotocast Plastics, Inc. (IRP) produces a wide variety of products, including virtually every food service kiosk in every professional sports venue in the United States.

“Overall, there are not too many limitations to what we can do,” explained Mike Waldron, a sales representative for IRP who covers the Midwest. “Right now, approximately 70 percent of what we build is custom-designed. The rest are more routine, regular products.”

The company was first incorporated in 1986 and supplies a wide range of premier merchandising equipment, including rotationally molded plastic products, wire racks, electric refrigeration, and fabricated portables for food and beverage concessionaires.
