Congratulations Grads!
Yard signs celebrating local graduates have sprouted on the lawn at Americana Community Bank once again. A five-year tradition the bank started in 2020 to make graduation special for the seniors who graduate that pandemic-affected year. The signs have the seniors’ photos and school names on them and are given to the students to take home prior to graduation. Both local high schools have graduation this weekend - Sleepy Eye Public on Friday, May 16 at 7 p.m. in the gym and St. Mary’s on Sunday, May 18 at 3 p.m. in the church.
