On Sept. 2, Kevin Foley
from Vote Yes Minnesota addressed our club on The Clean Water
Land and Legacy Amendment. This is an issue of particular importance
with our state's significant water resources. Clean water is essential
to the health of our state’s economy and citizens. The issues
demand immediate attention if we are to reduce threats to commercial/industrial
and residential developments as well as our sensitive ecosystem.
On Aug. 26, investment
counselor Paul Reding explained why we should stay the course
during the current economic uncertainties.
On Aug. 19 we heard
club member and Red Wing School District Superintendent Stan Slessor
explain the importance of passing the upcoming school referendum.
Also attending and explaining the financial particulars was Red
Wing School District Finance Director Brad Johnson.
