Charitable gambling opportunities continue to grow in Wadena after recent city council approvals.
Wadena City Council members approved a Verndale Lions gambling permit for pull tabs at Iron Corral and a gambling permit for the Wadena Hockey Club at the Little Round Still during their Tuesday, March 9, council meeting. Council members unanimously approved the permits without further discussion. Actual permitting is done by the State of Minnesota.
In last month’s meeting, the council approved a gambling permit for the Deer Creek Lions to have pull tabs at Drastic Measures Brewing. Now the three latest alcohol-serving establishments in town all have gambling opportunities inside.

BROWN COUNTY By a 4-1 vote Tuesday, Brown County commissioners approved certification for a tract of land the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service recently secured to purchase in Section 34, Sigel Township.
Commissioner Dean Simonsen cast the dissenting vote regarding about 100 acres of land owned by Greg Mikkelson. Approval came on Commissioner Dave Borchert’s motion, seconded by Commissioner Scott Windschitl.
The property would be open to the public and managed as a Waterfowl Production Area as part of the National Wildlife Refuge System.
Commissioners tabled the item Feb. 2 with a stipulation to notify abutting property owners, getting a list of other properties, talking to landowners, and getting a reference from another county regarding noxious weed control.
