Together, Shaping Our Future.

LANESBORO – While national and international events have made this a challenging year for so many, we end 2024 with great gratitude for the sense of community, the genuine commitment and the neighborly friendliness that is core to making the greater Root River Valley area a wonderful place to call “home!”

It’s hard not to smile given the abundance of thankfulness we recognize in the people who surround us—not just you, our supportive Root River Current friends, but also the folks we pass on the street in everyday life, the colleagues we work with, the family we hold dear.

One of our readers pointed us to a favorite YouTube video that captures the essence of this season, with encouragement to share it.

Whether you recognize the ‘players’ or not, this video’s merriment will surely prompt more smiles—especially so knowing that it includes cameos by several content contributors, board members and donors who make Root River Current possible throughout the year.

Celebrate the season…celebrate our community…and celebrate the joyfulness wrapped up in this video greeting!

And SMILE!
