There’s something refreshing about starting a new year. Many people see it as a chance to make a new beginning, a time for self-improvement or a time to reassess what we’ve been doing with our lives. And so, each year, millions of people make a list of things they want to work on in the next 12...
2018 certainly has been an interesting year both not only in New Prague, but across the world. Locally, New Prague has been blessed with many signs of growth and progress - new businesses opening, a new senior apartment complex nearing completion and a school system that is thriving. The city,...
This year I reached 24 years being a combination reporter and photographer. Reaching that milestone reminded me of some time back when someone asked me how long I had been a reporter. At the time it was about 20 years and she was a little surprised as she thought people today don’t seem to stay in...
Pastors from New Prague’s Faith Community sent a message to the community urging them to share in the Christmas spirit and attend the church service of their choice during the holiday season.

I hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving in some way. I made my nearly annual trip to my hometown of Thief River Falls. I say “nearly annual” in that every once in a while I can’t make the more than 300 mile drive to northwest Minnesota. Other times I’ve made it for Thanksgiving, Christmas or other...
