For folks that may not know about the happenings going on “down town” Browerville: the Todd County DAC bought the Leisen Pharmacy building about January of this year. There has been a lot of activity going on in the building. Much of the activity consisted of revamping, remodeling, painting and many other things to get the building set up so they can develop a seniors program for the developmentally disabled seniors. Tessa Johnston is painting a wall mural at the new DAC.

Each one of the 20 contestants was described in detail over the air by Esther Marie of the regional farm station KWAD.
