November is just around the corner with a number of activities planned. But before that, the ECFE Fall Festival will be held on Saturday, Oct. 29, 3 to 5 p.m. in the Sleepy Eye School parking lot. This fun event will be filled with fall themed games and trunk or treating by anyone who wishes to join in the fun. Decorate your vehicle and yourself, open your trunk which is filled with treats or prizes and greet the little ones as they stop by to see you. Older youth will be helping with some of the games. Come dressed in full costume but no weapons or scary masks.
To the editor: In 2018, when I voted for Tim Walz for governor, I had no idea that the Covid pandemic was just around the corner. When Covid started, Gov. Walz was a calm voice of reason. My family and I felt safe with him in charge. Under his leadership, Minnesotans got back to work, and we now enjoy the nation’s lowest unemployment rate at 2%. He deserves re-election on Nov. 8, and I will be voting for him.
