If you are inclined to step outside this evening, find an area outside of the light and look to the north.

What you cannot see with your naked eye, which is beautiful in and of itself, hold your phone camera up, and witness a beautiful display of the northern lights

Disclaimer: Sound isn’t all that great due to layout of the room. Auditor for the city of Colman just laid out numbers from electrical system income as there appear to be different numbers the city and the current provider, Heartland Energy, are using.

Some big discussions about growth and managing the financial commitments that come with it continue in the small community of Colman. Both the School Board and City Council meet tonight to further decisions on a potential new athletic complex and the potential transfer of the citys electrical utility to a not-for-profit entity.

The latest on both in next weeks edition of the MCE.

For those heading back to school today and this week .. a reminder to use more caution on area roads with farm equipment, more traffic back out, and heavy fog!

Welcome back to the school year, friends.

To Our Friends, Colleagues, Communities, Partners, and Treasured Longtime Readers,

As many of you know, on August 6, 2025, the Moody County Enterprise unexpectedly and officially ceased operations.

The closure was part of a broader decision by our parent company, News Media Corporation, to shut down all of its newspapers in South Dakota, Illinois, Wyoming, Arizona, and Nebraska. This was not a reflection of any wrongdoing but rather a business decision.

There is hope that the South Dakota papers — including the Enterprise — may be purchased and reopened. We’ll share updates here as they become available.

We know how deeply local news matters, we appreciate all of the calls, messages, and visits we’ve had since the closure was announced. Local news matters and the decisions made and events happening impact each of our day to day lives. The Moody County Enterprise has served this community for nearly 150 years, and we remain hopeful for a timely, positive resolution — and the chance to once again bring you the stories that matter most.

Thank you for your support, your trust, and your understanding.

ML and Carleen
