This past weekend, I thought I would do my part to clean up the wooded area across the alley from my house.   It’s a small section of undeveloped land along Skyline Drive between the Coppertop Church and N. 7th Ave East.  Some garbage like the old bottles and paint can in the picture had been there for decades; other stuff —  like  the Subway receipt dated April 15, 2010 — just days.

Does Minnesota Nice not including littering?

On Saturday Eric Ringsred signed a purchase agreement to sell the Temple Opera Building, NorShor Theatre, and NorShor Annex to DEDA for $2.6 million.  The sale is contingent on approval by DEDA and the Council.  It’s my intent to make the NorShor the crown jewel of the downtown, to make it the center of a regional arts and entertainment district.

Looking for a great way to show off your kid’s video project?

We are gearing up for the 3rd Annual REEL Youth Film Festival and hope that you will support young filmmakers by making sure they are aware of this wonderful opportunity. This is a free festival. Student entries are accepted from students K-12 by May 7.

Thank you so much and I hope you are able to attend.

Sincerely,
Julie Deters
