Good morning!
I had the pleasure of hitting the road again this week for the fourth of our five bonding trips this year. I will share photos and more details in this newsletter, as well as some info on our last tour which is set for next week.
Southeastern Bonding Tour
This bonding tour took us out to the Southeastern corner of the state, from Faribault to Rochester to Hastings, and many places in between.
One of the highlights on Wednesday was visiting River Bend Nature Center. They have a large assortment of educational programming there, both for school groups and over the summer when school isn't in session. It was cool to see many samples and hear about the needs that they have at this facility. You can click on either of these photos to see a slideshow from the trip!
Next week, we are wrapping up our series of bonding tours by spending three days in the Twin Cities Metro Area. We will visit sites and projects in and around both St. Paul and Minneapolis. Now that we are into the month of November, it is settling in that next session is just around the corner! These bonding tours are very helpful as we consider legislation for next session.
