It's summertime in Lanesboro!

Whew, lots to do again this weekend as we continue to have beautiful weather! Check out some of the upcoming events... (of course, I favor the musician from my hometown-- Owatonna-- playing at Riverside on the Root tomorrow night!)

Through her life, Ann Schultz has experienced much, and now she
wishes to express much. “Message in a Bottle”

old Ms. Schultz as she shares her experiences
through fine verse. Ann’s son-in-law, Ken
Panger will accompany the poetry reading on
the mandolin.
