No waiting

On a recent evening, the fitness center at the Eagan Community Center appeared to be very quiet... a great time for a peaceful workout!

Tea for two or three?

Farm fresh food and flowers

The weekly Market Fest farmers' market is overflowing with fresh, yummy produce. Flowers, honey, coffee, soaps, etc can be found, too! 

Rotarians, police chief and a superhero

On a beautiful, sunny, Saturday morning, the Eagan Rotary Club held their fun and successful, 2nd annual "Live to Give walk" fundraiser at the Eagan Rotary bandshell next to the Eagan Community Center. Net proceeds will support mostly 4 main local charities:

1. Dakota Woodlands - the only homeless shelter in Dakota County.

2. DARTS - transportation for seniors.

3. The Drawer - socks and underwear for homeless people.

4. Eagan Rotary Foundation

Club President Erica Hollom, dressed as a superhero, sang the national anthem. Police Chief and Rotarian Roger New judged the costumes and started the walkers. The St Thomas Academy high school drill team performed before community walkers, Rotarians, Interacters and dogs walked the one mile track. A Mexican food truck and Mimosas were available afterwards to participants.

A labyrinth of colors

 

These beautiful flowers and late summer colors grabbed my attention at the Eagan Community Center. 

Remembering....

On Memorial Day, we thank and remember past and present military personnel from all six branches of the United States military for their service.  God bless America! 

The Lone Oak Tree

This "Lone Oak" tree in front of the Eagan Community Center is the symbol of Eagan. It's also in the "header photo" of this blog.... but what is different in this photo versus the header photo of this tree? 

Tower and tree

The Christmas tree looks so simple and beautiful in the crisp night air behind the Eagan Community Center. 

Silent night.....Sunday night

It was very quiet near the pond behind the Eagan Community Center... 

City tree lighting ceremony

This week, Eaganites gathered on Thursday evening to watch the lighting of this year's magnificent Christmas tree at the Eagan Community Center. "Eagan TV" submitted this photo.
