Goodwill re-opens; new stores in city
23.02.12
Dollar General recently brought a new store to 706 Henslee Drive in Dickson, and several diverse restaurants began serving local residents in 2011, like the Greek Restaurant in Chelsea Place on Mathis Drive, Chicken, Kabobs and Gyros Greek Cuisine... Dickson County offers a great opportunity for retail businesses looking for a strong market to open a business, said David Hamilton, local Chamber of Commerce president. At least four new businesses have joined the citys retail community in the last three months, and even more opened shop in 2011. In addition to Goodwill, specialty shops like Buttercup Boutique and Native American and Antique Shop opened in downtown Dickson.

New Year's baby turns 1
23.02.12
NISSWA — Baby Reid Dean Wooden who entered this world Jan. 2 as the first Crow Wing County Baby of the Year is not so little anymore. This smiling New Year’s boy loves to play with his two older brothers, Leif, 6 1/2, and Kale, 3 1/2, especially when they are wrestling, said Keri Wooden. Wooden said Reid’s first year has gone well, despite the piles upon piles of laundry. Reid, the son of Keri and Toby Wooden of Nisswa, is a busy little boy, crawling around like crazy and putting anything he can in his mouth. “He loves to wrestle with his brothers,” said Wooden. “Our laundry has tripled,” said Wooden.
