Long before they needed the service, Bob and Sandy Tibbits of Glencoe have supported ConnectCare — later taken over by Allina — by attending the annual Blizzard Blast fundraiser.
Bob Tibbits said the couple attended the Blast for several years before they began spending winters in Arizona.

Most people in Glencoe have probably walked into Hite Hardware on 11th Street in Glencoe, not knowing what they were looking for, but walking out with exactly what they needed.
Greg Hite, owner of Hite Hardware, retired in mid-November when he closed the doors to his store after 27 years in Glencoe and 46 years in the hardware business.
Hite announced the retirement sale in late September.

The Glencoe-Silver Lake girls’ basketball team served up a little buffet over the past week. Included in the stretch was a first conference win, a weather-postponed game, and a loss to an out-of-state team in St. Paul.

The week “began” with the postponement of home game against Dassel-Cokato due to icy conditions on Tuesday, Jan. 10. That game, which was meant to be the Panthers’ Wright County Conference West home opener, has been moved to Monday, Jan. 23.
