The City of Detroit Lakes has a new and remodeled City Hall that opened to the public in back in June of 2024. Passerby’s by have first noticed the major facelift of the exterior, then came the completion of the re-imagined interior spaces.

This project renovated and expanded the original footprint of their existing space. The biggest change for the public is the larger, and absolutely stunning, council chamber with additional break rooms for the council members.

Let’s take a little peek at its incredible transformation!

We were greeted that weekend by your typical Minnesota winter elements with freezing temps, high winds, on-and-off snow flurries and incredible sun dogs, but that didn’t stop us from getting outdoors and checking out this exciting winter event.

How does one capture the pure deliciousness of Anthony Peeters’s Black Bark Maple Syrup? You pair it with Pannukakku - a traditional Finnish Oven-baked pancake, of course!
Black Bark Maple Syrup is the purest form of syrup, with no additives or fillers. Syrup is made by collecting sap in the Spring when the temperatures are high enough to thaw during the day but cold enough to freeze at night, creating the perfect conditions to get those maple taps running.
