Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
The Luverne Area Chamber and CVB has successfully completed the 2016 Rock River Beerfest on Saturday, Aug. 20. With over 120 profiles of craft beer and wines, there were abundant flavors and tastes for everyone to enjoy.
The day might have seemed flawless to the people who attended...
To the Editor:
Maybe it’s just me, but I think farmers are all kicking each other while they’re down.
The family of a close personal friend of mine is struggling to keep their dairy afloat, and loan payments are sucking up their savings.
According to Minnesota Public Radio, the same thing is...
To the Editor:
I spent last week working in downtown Luverne and was amazed to see all the walking traffic. Whether it was the dad pushing a baby stroller, the postal worker, a day care provider taking her children on an adventure, customers heading to downtown stores or businesses , others heading...
To the Editor:
On August 4 you ran an article on Sharkee’s (which was condemned) and Dave Halverson pleading not having enough time to fix the problems. A long time while in operation, he didn’t care about the sewer problems, mold, food or lack of upkeep.

To the Editor:
Have you been watching the Middle East lately? Boom!
Over there they brainwash their kids to be suicide fighters and bombers.
Over here we just brainwash our kids to be socialists.
I hope our kids realize how fortunate they are and also realize how much we really wish them the best...
Letter to Kenneth:
A note from Kerry Boese to those who once made up Kenneth Lutheran Church:
On July 13, 1986, I was ordained as a pastor in what was then the American Lutheran Church. On this, the 30th anniversary of my ordination, I find myself reflecting on my faith walk and remember those who...
To the Editor:
A letter last week was critical of my comments to the governor during his recent visit to Worthington. In the author’s hurry to play her own “blame game,” she failed to mention some key parts of my comments that would give the readers a more complete view of the discussion. My...
To the Editor:
Do we want a politician or a senator that will represent us and get things done? As she stated, he lectured the governor on how to do his job. Are we to just figure the governor does everything correct and accept it?
Respect for the governor is one thing, BUT that should be for all...
