Fruehlingsfest - Jim Graeve thanks the Chamber for their very generous
donation. It was a great event. Former Mayors were there to honor
the Sisters. Marthaler - It was nice to be honored.
Millstream Festival - Renslow - there was a request to try to get the
Millstream Festival back to St. Joseph about 5 years ago. Now there
are two or three people who would like to chair the event and keep it
as close as possible to how it was before. The college would be the
rain site - but they would like it to be in downtown St. Joseph. The
date was the final Sunday in Sept. so they will try to keep it the
same. They need a committee to put things together.
Habitat
for Humanity - Ann Walters - still working on a land negotiation.
Will try to break ground in the fall. St. Joseph Jaycees has most
recently donated $10,000. Central MN Federal Credit Union organized a
golf tournament. There were over 100 people. Tim Herzog presented a
check for $4800 for to Habitat for Humanity.
Lake
Wobegon Trail meetings - Renslow - the communities are really getting
excited about the trail. Holdingford has built a covered bridge,
Osakis is have a opening on the trail with Garrison Keillor. He wants
it to be the longest trail, but wants St. Joseph to be the
headquarters. Carmel Roll Ride had 100 more cyclists than last year.
Avon Area Arts Group is having their function the same weekend as the
Carmel Roll Ride. Please join us at the meeting at Charlies.
New
business - meeting sponsors are needed for 2007 for August and
November. Please contact Janelle Von Pinnon - 363-7741. Kay's
Kitchen would like to cater at the Wobegon Trail head next week. We
