*Breaking news! For the past three weeks (May 27 to June 16) the zip code areas of Belgrade, Brooten and Elrosa have reported just two COVID-19 cases in a population of about 4,300 children and adults. That is tremendous news. Tremendous!!!

Just released at noon on Thursday, June 17, the latest Minnesota Department of Health reports shows just one new local COVID-19 case in the zip code areas of Brooten, Belgrade and Elrosa for the prior week of reporting.
