In today’s Untold Story of Central Minnesota, Arts & Cultural Heritage Producer Jeff Carmack talks once again with MN State Auditor Julie Blaha. This time, the conversation focuses upon documenting history through a deeper investigation into the best practices of local communities regarding how one-time COVID money was spent. With the state’s repeated budget surpluses and with a new revenue stream being introduced through the legalization of marijuana, the way our local governments track and spend money is more important than ever, and Auditor Blaha has ideas on what can give us an accurate look at what is actually happening. Plus, it’s never too early to think about the State Fair as Blaha reveals a first concept of what her crop-art contest entry might be for this year.

In today’s Untold Story of Central Minnesota, Arts & Cultural Heritage Producer Jeff Carmack talks with members of the Civil War Roundtable group that meets monthly at the Stearns History Museum. Andrew Ditlevson, Win Anderson and Mary Soroko have been coordinating the group for years partially due to their collective curiosity concerning history, but also, they realized how many details about the Civil War were being lost to time and this is a way to keep that history alive. Their next meeting is on Tuesday, May 9, at 3:45 p.m. at the Stearns History Museum with guest speaker Mark Jaede, and then the group will be on the road at the Grand Army of the Republic Hall in Litchfield on Thursday, May 11, at 1:30 p.m. as Mary Soroko presents on the topic of women of the civil war.
