One year later and we’re still searching for some remnants of what we used to call “normal.”
March came and went as only it does here in Minnesota; with the teasing of false Spring, only to return us to cooler temps and even a few snow flurries, to continue our longing for the warmth of the summer months. Ironically, this is the same mindset that must still remain for the events and happenings of the Sleepy Eye Chamber for 2021. We are eager for the return to the familiar and are working on creating that, while remaining within the regulations and guidelines we are subject to.
