225 Water Street Creative Arts is holding our second Recycled Art Contest in Jordan, Minnesota.

Our last contest was won by 14 year old, Storm Moll of Belle Plaine, Minnesota with her winning entry "Don't throw Peace Away."

We're in search of our next best “Trashformation” artist! The Recycled Art Contest is open to recycled artists ages 10 and older.

Entries will be displayed at 225 Water Street starting September 1st and the winning entries will be announced September 6th and cash prizes will be awarded for the top three finalists.

Scott County and its partners in SCALE have planned a public grand opening and ribbon cutting on Wednesday, July 16, for the Regional Public Safety Training Facility, located at 17706 Valley View Drive in Sand Creek Township, near Jordan.

The event — which will feature speakers, refreshments, exhibits and safety-related displays — will be held from 2:30 to 8 p.m. with remarks from speakers at 3 p.m.
