Dear Editor,
The devastating impact of COVID-19 has hit many industries, but few were hit harder than biofuels. From farmers and producers to equipment manufacturers, the virus sent shockwaves through a sector already reeling from years of regulatory mismanagement. Half the industry was forced offline, and the outlook remains dim without action in Washington.
Dear New Glarus Community,
Thank you once again stepping up to support the High School Community Blood Drive held on Wednesday, June 3.
We are very sorry for the location confusion! Whereas the Schools were closed, the Field Rep decided to hold the drive at our usual location, the New Glarus Bible Church, due to its wonderful conveniences.
In spite of the confusion, you all helped make this a very successful Blood Drive. The quota was 31 units and you all helped us reach a final total of 49 Total Units!
