Aitkin County DFL Highway Clean-up!

Aitkin County DFL and DFL Club will be joining together to clean-up the 1.5 mile section of highway 47 we’ve adopted just a few minutes east of Aitkin. Look for our crew in high visibility vests.

We will have bags and flourescent vests as well as some grabbers. Boots or old tennis shoes are good. Gloves are a very good accesory.

If we get a good number of folks, we should be done in less than two hours (lunchtime) ~ and could eat lunch together!

Email us with any questions!

Brainerd Lakes Indivisible Labor Day Rally - Workers Over Billionaires:

Labor Day was established in the late 19th century to honor the American labor movement and the contributions of workers to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of the country. It became a federal holiday in 1894 after nationwide labor strikes and the growing influence of unions.

Today, billionaires and corporate interests are draining resources from working families, attacking immigrants and marginalized communities, and treating our democracy like something to be bought and sold.

In Brainerd, we know that real strength comes from neighbors showing up for and with each other.

That’s why on Labor Day, we’re joining thousands across the country to say: we want a fair, just, and equitable future. One where people matter more than profit, and where every voice is heard.

Join us! Register Here.
