THE MINNESOTA DNR SAYS THAT ONLY 15 HUNTERS FILLED THEIR ELK TAG THIS SEASON IN NORTHWEST MINNESOTA, THAT IS OUT OF THE 28 TAGS THAT WERE OFFERED. THE SUCCESS RATE OF 54% IS DOWN FROM AN 82% SUCCESS RATE LAST YEAR. TWO ADDITIONAL TAGS FROM A SEPARATE HUNTING ZONE WERE BOTH FILLED ALSO.
THE CROOKSTON SCHOOL DISTRICT FINANCE COMMITTEE HAS SETTLED ON THE NUMBER OF $4.963 MILLION, THAT’S WHAT THEY WILL BE ASKING VOTERS TO APPROVE IN A FEBRUARY REFERENDUM. THAT’S A SECOND ATTEMPT AT A VOTE THAT FAILED BY ONLY A FEW VOTES IN AUGUST. HOWEVER, THAT PRICE TAG NOW IS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF $1 MILLION HIGHER.
IT HAS BEEN A DRY FALL, AND SOME METEOROLOGISTS ARE ALREADY DISCUSSING HOW THAT COULD HAVE A NEGATIVE IMPACT ON NEXT SPRING.
