After a chilly start to a month filled with winter events like ice skating and a frigid Shamrock Shuffle, March has warmed up significantly this past week and hints of spring are finally in the air.

A variety of area school programs and sports teams also made impressive state tournament runs this month including Cass Lake-Bena basketball and Beaver hockey.

In the midst of each of these significant moments, photographers Jillian Gandsey, Madelyn Haasken and Annalise Braught were there to capture it all.
