After the custom-made Christmas ornaments sold out in a matter of weeks, Brainerd’s water tower committee decided to make another product: mugs.
Bright red mugs with a heart around the historic water tower are on sale for $15 at Visit Brainerd, just in time for Valentine’s Day. Those who want one might want to act quickly, as there were only 150 ordered. If all are sold, the committee will make just over $1,500.

It’s no surprise 2020 has been a year of ups and downs in terms of funding for the Northland Arboretum.
Right now, the conservation nonprofit in Brainerd and Baxter looks to be operating at a deficit of about $54,000 for fiscal year 2020-21, but Executive Director Candice Zimmermann hopes things can get back on track.
Increases in membership, gift shop purchases and donations, along with potential grants, could bring the Arboretum out of the hole, Zimmermann told the Brainerd City Council Monday, Dec. 7.
