 Not only is the Earn While You Learn program at Lakes Life Care Center
in Forest Lake educational for parents but it is also rewarding. In the past, the center has only offered free pregnancy tests to single
or married women, peer counseling for situational problems or expecting
parents whether the child was planned or not, as well as material
assistance.
Lakes Life Care Center in Forest Lake is offering a new program Earn While You Learn. Participants earn “bucks” or coupons that can be spent at the Stork’s Nest. Pictured (left to right) are volunteers Elaine Smith, Diana McEvoy and Mary Stolz.

It was a standing ovation for Wyoming Mayor Sheldon Anderson who was a special guest at the March 6 ISD 831 School Board meeting. Anderson was honored for his Extreme Fund-Raising effort and week-long stay on the roof of the Wyoming City Hall that raised $35,000 in public donations to keep the Community Education Forest Lake Teen Center open. Anderson was honored with a plaque presented by Julie Ohman, director of community education. “We needed a champion,” Ohman said. “We are so, so grateful.” Anderson said he became a backer last year of the program that serves junior high students in an after-school facility at the Central Learning Center after learning that it faced financial troubles. Anderson said he has a passion for such programs. As a kid, he said he was a youth who could have benefitted. “I was one of those kids who didn’t want to go home,” Anderson said. He teamed with Kathy Bystrom, youth development coordinator for Community Education, to pull off the successful fund-raiser.
