Hundreds of Easter eggs were spread along a path in German Park for the Easter Bunny Hop, Saturday morning. The event was held by the Park and Recreation Department with volunteer support from Students Performing on Tough Situations (SPOTS).
NEW ULM It was a near-perfect Easter weekend weather-wise.
The sun was out without a cloud in the sky on Saturday and Sunday with only a light breeze. Many New Ulm residents said it was one of the nicest Easter weekends they could remember in recent years.
The best example of the favorable weather was the annual Park and Recreation Easter Egg hunt held in German Park Saturday. German Park is traditionally the location of Park and Rec’s Easter egg event, but often it is relocated to the Civic Center due to rain or snow. The event was in German Park in 2019, but no egg hunt was held in 2020 due to concerns of the pandemic. The return to German Park was a return to normalcy.

The New Ulm City Council will determine the fate of the building at 307 N. Minnesota St. The buildingâs crumbling north wall is a safety hazard and the city will determine whether to repair or demolish.
NEW ULM The New Ulm City Council will mull options for the property at 307 N. Minnesota Street, Tuesday.
The city has been dealing with maintained issues associated with this property since July 2015. Currently, the north wall of the building is crumbling.
The building owner has stated he did not have the money to fix the wall. The city now has two options, but both options have potential hidden costs making it difficult to determine which is less expensive.
