My check is enclosed for another year of the Gazette. I like the paper. You and the others who write for the paper most certainly have a gift with words. Thank you.

Hey, Sue! It's that time again. I enjoy your paper and all the articles in it, even though most of the names are not familiar anymore, but every now and then there are some that bring back memories. The vocabulary words are great, even if I'll not remember them nor their definition.

Happy Spring and God Bless.

Hi, Sue. My apologies. I just noticed that I gave you some incorrect information for your March issue of the paper, about the Hwy 5 project.

Construction will start west of the Lakebridge/Krey Lakes development and extend to the western end of the project. There will be breaks at public streets and driveways. We will also be testing centerline mumble strips in a one-quarter mile rural segment."

The Victoria City Engineer is aware of this and we will have correct information at the public information meeting on March 10th. It might be helpful if you could also publish a correction in your paper. Also, I now have more details about the closure dates. The forcemain and off-highway work will start in early May. Hwy 5 will be closed on June 8th, so the impacts to through-traffic will not occur until then. Also, we expect the project to be completed by September 3rd.

Just a note to say, Sue, that you have a great paper. The special column in the March issue of the Gazette was Mike Wartman's on becoming a grandparent. He is so on the mark. Thank you for a great paper.

In February the American Dental Association sponsored Give Kids a Smile Day. We're proud to say that 15 Midwest Dental offices in Minnesota participated, providing more than $66,000 in free dental care to underprivileged children. In total, 19 dentists and more than 70 team members gave their time.

Midwest Dental offices worked closely with local public health agencies, area schools, Head Start programs, nonprofit agencies, and youth and community organizations to identify children in need.

Midwest Dental provides complete family dentistry for patients of all ages and has locations throughout Minnesota, including in Victoria.
