Drug Awareness and Wright County Drug Update
May 04, 2022
This week we welcome Lori Blaukat, the new director of Wright County's drug awareness and education initiative. The Wright County, Minnesota MEADA (Mentorship, Education and Drug Awareness ~ formerly Methamphetamine, Education, and Drug Awareness) Coalition was formed in 2004 when community and county partners joined forces to help address the local methamphetamine epidemic. As stricter regulations were placed on products needed to produce methamphetamine and law enforcement cracked down on meth labs, the Coalition’s focus broadened to include awareness of other substances and also increased focus on mentoring programs for youth.

Picnic and Geocaching - children / guests invited
Jun. 22, 2022
Geocaching is an outdoor recreational activity, in which participants use a Global Positioning System receiver or mobile device and other navigational techniques to hide and seek containers, called "geocaches" or "caches", at specific locations marked by coordinates all over the world. Annette Peterson shares how easy and fun it is to geocache around Wright County. We will be outside if it is nice and inside if it's too hot and / or windy. Guests / children are invited. Check out the attached picture of Rotary Garden (near the previous Wright County Government Center site). Thanks to a previous district grant written by Bob Halagan for the beautiful garden. Thanks Suzanne for the photo!! If it's Wednesday, it's Rotary! See you at Rotary! |

Wright County Public Health Survey
Oct. 12, 2022
Bio: Joel Torkelson is a Public Health Planner at Wright County Public Health. He has worked there since 2004. Joel works closely with Buffalo Hospital, part of Allina Health, CentraCare – Monticello and Wright County Community Action to conduct a community health assessment and create a community health improvement plan. Joel believes in the power of data and its ability to help us create healthier communities. When harnessed correctly it helps us engage the public and in time can make a positive difference across our communities. His family has called Buffalo home since 2012. He is grateful to live and work in this community. In his free time he enjoys running, golfing and ice fishing.
Speaking about: In late 2021 a community health survey was mailed out to adults across Wright County. We received the survey results in March 2022. Buffalo Hospital, part of Allina Health, CentraCare – Monticello, Wright County Community Action and Wright County Public worked together to administer the survey. A general overview of the findings will be shared including people’s opinions on key issues facing Wright County, use of tobacco, alcohol and other drugs, distracted driving behaviors and several measures related to mental health. Additionally, some of the questions were asked on previous surveys, allowing us to share trend data. A handout with important data points will be provided as well. |
