One thing you need to know today:
April 13, 1995 — The 5,300-square-foot expansion onto Hank’s Foods in Pipestone seemed to be working out quite well. Hank’s owner Hank Darveaux said that public comments were rolling in, much of that centering around the additional space and beauty of the addition. Manager Tom Darveaux, said the work was “pretty much completed” on the building. Major changes included the new entrance on the south and west part of the store, with a large expansion of the bakery/deli department in an area added on, a new customer courtesy area and a new meat department. The produce and dairy sections were greatly enlarged and much new equipment, including new coolers and freezers and a new refrigeration system had been added. The south wall of the old store was removed for the addition.

One thing you need to know today:
April 12, 1965 — ​The Pipestone Civil Air Patrol Squadron would hold a pancake feed at the American Legion Hall here. ​Proceeds from the event would be used to help pay for the insurance and upkeep necessary to keep the CAP airplane in top shape for giving cadets orientation rides and training. ​Senior CAP members and cadets hoped the pancake feed would be favored with good weather and public support to help them with this very worthwhile program.
