For senior Megan Leonard, sports has been a family affair. Her mother and father, Theresa and Jeff Leonard, both played high school and club sports, and her brother Jake played baseball at Oswego East and is finishing up playing collegiate baseball at Iowa Wesleyan. Not only did her family s background in sports help Megan develop an interest in softball, but it also gave her a support system, turning her into one of the best players in the area, which is one of the reasons why she is this week s Oswego East student-athlete of the week. Anyone who has an older sibling understands when they participate in a sport or activity, you will inevitably be brought along to watch. For Megan, this meant attending Jake s baseball games, something that sparked an interest in her. From a young age, Megan would attend Jake s baseball games, and apparently she paid more attention to them than we realized, says Theresa and Jeff.

DVS to offer Saturday hours to process license and ID renewals Tim Harlow, Star Tribune
The Minnesota Department of Vehicle Services (DVS) will temporarily offer Saturday hours to help thousands of people who were granted renewal extensions due to the COVID-19 pandemic complete the task.
Credentials that would have expired over the past year but remained valid as a result of legislation Gov. Tim Walz signed into law last year must be renewed by March 31, DVS announced last month.
Walz s emergency declarations over the past year allowed DVS to grant extensions for expiring licenses. But under Minnesota law, no more extensions are possible.

Bloomington to close its only Driver and Vehicle Services office City cites budget hole created by loss of revenue from lodging taxes. January 21, 2021 8:02pm Text size Copy shortlink:
Bloomington plans to close its only Driver and Vehicle Services (DVS) office, citing the $376,000 in subsidies needed in 2020 to keep the city-run amenity afloat.
The city sent out notices saying the office will close March 31 unless a private entity steps up to run it.
Some Bloomington officials say the cut is necessary to patch a $7 million hole in the 2021 budget caused mostly by decreased lodging taxes due to the pandemic s impact on the hospitality industry. But other city leaders decried the loss of a valuable resource and questioned the city s financial priorities.
