Mahtomedi Schools had a special visitor this week: Rep. Betty McCollum took time from her busy schedule to tour the Fab Lab and watch the Zephyr Wind Turbine in action. Rep. McCollum was impressed with the Mahtomedi area’s commitment to quality education, to renewable energy, and to bringing the two together through community collaboration. Congratulations to all who have helped make these dreams a reality for Mahtomedi Schools!
