 Caledonia Care & Rehab (CC&R) has an under-utilized, yet wonderful program offered to persons 18 years and older in Caledonia and the surrounding communities.  This program, called Adult Day Services, provides families the option of dropping off their spouse or loved one at CC&R for part, or all of the working day, where they are assured that their family member’s needs are met in a safe environment.

Livestock farmers were out in force last week trying to get the first cutting of hay up before last weekend’s rains. This Spring Grove-area farmer used a kicker baler to put up a crop of small bales.                                                                                                                    Photo by Charlie Warner

 We’re pretty much on schedule. We’ve received some perfect rains, have plenty of sub-soil moisture and things are looking very good.”
