Valerie Sauder of Pine Island and Katrina Thoe of Hayfield will serve as Dodge County Dairy Princesses for 2019.  

The Dodge County Seventh Day Adventist Church served up a variety of tasty international vegetarian fare earlier this month at its annual International Food Festival.
This was the second year for the event, said church member Donna McNeilus, who coordinated the day.

During the aftermath of the April winter storm last week, members of the Minnesota Army National Guard were deployed across the state to help in various ways.
Two of those guardsman were neighbors in Kasson, Sgt. Brian Rinehart and Ssg. Brian Wunderlich.

For four years, Thomas Sutherland of Dodge Center committed his life to the country, as a member of the United States Army.
Now people in the community are committed to helping him and his family as they go through a very difficult time in life.

Ever since she was little, Jennifer Kelly told people that she wanted to be a veterinarian one day.
Now less than 10 years after graduating from K-M High School, Kelly is doing just that, as she is a veterinarian at the Carriage House in Kasson.

For the past few years, the Kasson Park Board and other community groups and members have helped beautify the community during the springtime.
That tradition will continue again this year as the JUST PICK IT UP litter campaign will be taking place on May 11.
The goal of the campaign is for community members to help pick up litter in town as a group.
