Friday mornings during Border News Roundup we get a chance to check in with Marshall Helmberger, the editor and publisher of The Timberjay newspaper serving NE Minnesota. This week Marshall gives us an update on Covid-19, talking about the changes made with Independent School District 2142 in St. Louis County since the county increase of infection rate is now at close to 30%. We hear about the story of Boltz, an eight-year-old grey wolf from the International Wolf Center receiving an MRI at the Ely-Bloomenson Community Hospital, Ely’s drive-thru flu shot clinic being forced to close early and weekend advice on viewing fall colors.
