CDH-Vergas Fire & Rescue Chief Jeff Zitzow and his team will be keeping collective eyes on the workings of the Otter Tail County Board of Commissioners as they try to work around Ringdahl Ambulance not renewing its Primary Service Area license for the Pelican Rapids service area (License No. 0192) upon its expiration in 2027 by creating a Subordinate Service District to ensure emergency medical services continue. This also affects portions of the Vergas area.

Hundred of motorcycles rolled through the area on Saturday afternoon as part of the 25th annual Ronald McDonald RIDE. The motorcycle ride is the world’s largest single day motorcycle ride to benefit the Ronald McDonald House. The ride began and ended at the VFW Club in New York Mills and made stops in Frazee (right and below), as well as Wolf Lake (right). 

After a successful opening weekend June 26-28 at her new store Jo Rose Ann Boutique downtown on Lake Street, Owner Taylor Perrine was excited to restock her inventory. Bringing a place for people to shop for clothing and accessories in Frazee was a driving motivator for the 18-year-old to jump right into running her own business.

Construction is in full swing in the family resource center at CornerStone.
