It's official! We will have a carnival for Fete des Lacs this year. The firm is Funland, Inc. They are a very reputable company that has been in business for over 50 years. They are the carnival that serves the cities of Blaine, Brooklyn Center, Farmington and a few other rural MN communities. They had a cancellation for the weekend of Fete des Lacs and called Karla Devine to see if we were still interested in having a carnival. We are in the process of signing a contract. They can provide games and food vendors, if so desired. They require all of their employees to have short hair, no beards and to be in uniform. They also randomly drug test all of their employees. References have been checked by the carnival committee and all of the cities have been pleased with this companies performance. We are not sure how many rides we will have available to us at this time. They will be splitting their carnival in half and will also be serving another MN community the same weekend of Fete des Lacs. They appear to do this quite often according to the schedule they have posted on their website. If you want to find out more about the carnival visit them at http-1/~. funlandrbscom Nice job carnival sub-committee!! . The Carpenter commercial building has opened up as a Farmer's Insurance Group office. It is nice to see this building occupied. * Part-time Account Clerk Laura Thompson starts on Monday.
