The <br />goal of the Hugo Historical Commission <br />is to see the Schoolhouse reintegrated <br />into the community while maintaining the <br />historic aesthetic of the building. <br />As an important piece of Hugo history, <br />the City is excited to see the Schoolhouse <br />flourish with the help of a strong public and <br />private partnership, all terms negotiable. <br />For inquiries, contact: <br />Michele Lindau, City Clerk, <br />mlindau@ci.hugo.mn.us • 651-762-6315 <br />Planting for Clean Water <br />WONDERFUL WETLANDS WORKSHOP <br />Do you live on or near a marsh or wetland?
