Ardayda Minnetonka waxay xaaqday madasha Twin Cities Regional Higaada Bee horraantii bishii Maarso, iyagoo galay kaalinta koowaad, labaad iyo saddexaad ee tartanka. 

Siddeed wareeg oo aad u adag ka dib, Wade Salvey oo ka socday Dugsiga Sare ee Heights ayaa si guul leh u higgaadiyay "toorie" (tassel on a Scottish bonnet) si uu ugu guuleysto tartanka. Ku guuleysiga waxa uu Salvey ku kasbaday fursad uu ku matalo Magaalooyinka Mataanaha ah ee Scripps National Higaada Bee ee National Harbor, Maryland bishan May. Ardayda Minnetonka Maya Riedner (Clear Springs Elementary) iyo Kai Riedner (Dugsiga Dhexe ee Minnetonka Galbeedka) ayaa ku dhammaystay kaalmaha labaad iyo saddexaad ee gobollada. Kai Riedner wuxuu matalay gobolka mataanaha ee shinnida qaranka 2024.

Salvey sanadkan ka hor kuma tartamin shinni higaada. "Waxaan bilaabay sababtoo ah macalinkaygu wuxuu ii soo jeediyay inaan qaato shahaadada qoran ee shinnida higgaada dugsiga," ayuu la wadaagay. U diyaargarowgiisii shinnida gobolka waxa ka mid ahaa in uu daraaseeyo baakidh ereyo ah oo loogu talagalay tartanka dugsiga ka dibna u gudbay adeegsiga barnaamijka Word Club ee Scripps si loogu diyaariyo gobollada. Inkastoo uusan lahayn kelmad uu jecel yahay oo lagu higgaadinayo, "ereyada leh shaqal badan oo is xiga waa kuwo aad u xiiso badan," ayuu yiri Salvey.

"Ma fileyn inaan guuleysan doono, marka tani waxay ahayd lama filaan weyn," Salvey ayaa la wadaagay. "Weli waxaan ku jiraa in yar oo marxalad gaalnimo ah." Waxa uu la wadaagay in uu rajaynayo in uu booqdo taallooyin iyo calaamado caan ah oo ku yaal Xeebta Bari inta lagu jiro wakhtiga dheeriga ah ee la siiyay safarkiisa dabayaaqada gu'ga.
