G-R superintendent ends sharing agreement

GLADBROOK/REINBECK – The superintendent sharing agreement that the Gladbrook-Reinbeck and South Hardin school districts entered into a year ago will now come to an end with the close of the school year.
Under the agreement, South Hardin’s superintendent Jay Mathis would split his time between the two schools, spending about 60 percent of his time at South Hardin and the remaining 40 percent of his time at G-R.

Bringing culture and coffee to Grundy Center

GRUNDY CENTER – When Amanda and Nelson Sager first laid eyes on the old building at 626 G Avenue, they didn’t see it for what it was – an empty building that used to house commercial office space – but rather for what it could be. They saw it as something new and different for Grundy Center, a community space – a bakery.
“When I walked in the door, I just had a vision,” Amanda said. “It was so clear to me that this place, it needed to be a bakery.”

City council votes to save the former Baptist church

GRUNDY CENTER – At Monday night’s meeting, the Grundy Center City Council was faced with two potential courses of action for the former First Baptist Church: write the Derelict Building Grant with a goal of demolishing the former First Baptist Church, or rehabilitating it. After much discussion, the council ultimately came to an agreement that the city would write the grant with the hopes of rehabilitating the property.
