If it’s Heartland Days week — and it is — then Jason Speltz is keeping one eye on the sky and the other on New Hampton’s big town celebration.

The first Classic Night of the summer was held Thursday night in conjunction with Relay For Life. 
Cars, tractors and more lined Main Street to be viewed and voted on by attendees.

The event was held in conjunction with the New Hampton Classic Night that was held on Main Street with Relay For Life on Walnut Avenue.

Alta Vista celebrated Saturday — well, actually the whole weekend — with Alta Vista Days that included a parade, children's activities, live music and a softball tournament.
