Board Finally Approves Decorah Sports Complex Funding
By Michael Hohenbrink
Editor
BREAKING - The Winneshiek County Board of Supervisors once again returned to funding the Decorah Sports Complex during Monday’s meeting.
Being able to pay the money over three years instead of right away has added to support after a split board rejected the idea last week 3-2.
That ability to budget and pay over time has provided a nudge.
“Which makes it a little more doable,” said Chairman Dan Langreck.
The chairman said he would be willing to contribute $5,000, but he did not support an effort by Supervisor Shirley Vermace to subsequently increase the amount to $10,000 after he voiced willingness to go for the $5,000 Monday.
Recent comments at City of Decorah City Council meetings drew ire from board members.

Welcome to the Calmar Courier

Official Paper of Calmar, Fort Atkinson, Ridgeway, Spillville, Waucoma, Winneshiek County & South Winneshiek and Turkey Valley Community Schools.

Located amidst the bluffs of northeastern Iowa, the city and the newspaper alike trace their name to the Kalmar Sound on the southeastern coast of Sweden. The region draws upon a heritage of Scandinavian, German and Czech settlers. Owing first to the influence of the railroad, and later to the confluence of major highways in the area, the area is a hub for travel.

The Calmar Courier is part of the family of publications printed by Mid-America Publishing Corporation based in Hampton.

The Calmar Courier is joined by sister MAP newspapers with the Postville Herald and The Outlook in Monona, offering advertising potential to our customers as well as the possibility of expanded news coverage.
