Hi everybody,
With the recent change in weather, it appears our summer is officially
over. However, lower temperatures have not stopped me from traveling
throughout the district, as this week I’ll be visiting Hastings
neighborhoods.
As I’ve been out door knocking, some folks have asked me about
hunting opportunities at the Vermillion Highlands Wildlife Management
Area. If you are interested, visit
www.dnr.state.mn.us/wmas/vermillion_highlands.html. Here you can
click on a detailed map of the area on the bottom of the web page.
If you’re online, also check out this link if you’re looking for
prescription drug payment assistance. www.awarerx.org was founded by
the Minnesota Pharmacists Foundation believing pharmacists have a
critical role in providing medication safety information and helping
raise awareness of the dangers of abusing medications.
Visit the AWARxE site for information that can help make prescription
drugs more affordable. Just click on the “Affording Your
Medications” section at the lower-left part of your screen; links
to several providers will appear.
On Wednesday, Governor Pawlenty announced that $10 million is now
available for micro-energy and conservation home improvement loans to
help Minnesotans save on energy costs.
Under the loan program, homeowners are encouraged to get an energy
audit from their utility company to determine the most cost-effective
energy-efficient improvements. Interested homeowners can then apply for
the loans directly through a Fix-Up Fund lender. Lenders are listed at
www.mnhousing.gov/consumers/lender.
Keep in touch,
Denny
