Nelson bills receive Senate hearing

Happy Spring! Or at least that’s how it’s been feeling after Minnesota’s annual cold front. Exciting things are happening at the Capitol! From critical infrastructure projects and highway safety improvements to meaningful conversations with community leaders, there’s a lot to share.

I Was Thinking... Records

For several weeks the local paper has reported on local athletic records being set. New boys’ basketball scoring records were set at K-M and Triton. Several area girl players were recognized for scoring 1,000 or 2,000 points in their careers. Coaches set records for wins or number of games coached. Sports are very good at keeping track of records.
