The Matsons of Chanhassen worked with Destiny Homes of Chanhassen to
remodel their kitchen. The challenge of their six-sided home made the
remodel challenging but they love the results. A point of local
trivia--their home was once owned by Kevin Sorbo who starred in the
popular 1990s TV series "Hercules."

With the sun shining and the temperatures more tolerable than in previous years, the masses flocked to Firemen’s Lake for the 53rd Annual Chaska Fire Department Fishing Contest.

Firemen spent the morning drilling 1,500 holes around the lake. Most of those holes would later be occupied by the 1,200 in attendance at the two-hour event.

A small crowd gathered at City Square Park last Sunday for the the fifth annual Multicultural Holiday Celebration, sponsored by the city’s Human Rights Commission and Dunn Bros. The night featured music by Chaska High School’s chamber singers, discussion of various holiday traditions around the world, a visit from Santa and a piñata.
