Town baseball is one of Minnesota’s great treasures. It draws players and fans who truly appreciate what it is – competition for the love of the game and people cheering for their team. It is a blend of passion and community pride reminding us of the local high school team taking on the rival team...
There’s no doubt the New Prague City Council will do the right thing in cleaning up the mess caused by its decision and the contractor involved in razing the house north of city hall. After waiting two weeks for a response from the Minnesota Department of Health, the city will move swiftly to work...
As I do every year, I try to critique the new foods which will be served at the Minnesota State Fair, which is less than one month away. Two weeks ago the fair announced the 34 official new foods and seven new food vendors for the Great Minnesota Get-Together. I haven’t been to the State Fair for...
I know it has been a while since I have written, or duplicated, anything in this column space. As we all know, it has been extremely busy the past month with city celebrations, which all had great turnouts! With that being said, I have been presented the 12 commandments for seniors. Depending on...

For some, it was a godsend. In New Prague, the legislation allowed...
Maybe you read about Larry Olimb over the weekend. If you love ice hockey, you might have heard the former U of M standout defenseman and former professional lost his job as head girls’ coach at Orono High School. Some say he was run out of the job. Others think he has nobody to blame but the guy...
Summer has officially started. The summer solstice, the longest day of the year, was Wednesday, June 21. Others may say it was already summer when temperatures were in the high-80s and low-90s Fahrenheit last week. Another sure sign of summer was the number of outdoor events that were going on this...
I’ve had a gripe for many years that has only become stronger — ticket resellers. To get one thing out of the way right away, ticket resellers do serve one very small purpose, which has even since been almost eliminated, and that is to resell tickets for people who can’t go to an event for one...
