During this time of uncertainty, little things mean a lot. Whether it be a pat on the back, a thank you, or just a note to say have a good day, kids need positives in their lives.

Sue Morsching, who owns Elysian Auto with her husband Carl, saw a display of kindness in the Twin Cities. Morsching saw a heart wall, where individuals had a chance to provide uplifting messages written on a small heart. They were displayed for all to see and she felt this was something which could be done locally. “Let the kids express their feelings,” Morsching said. “The kids are living in a historic moment and the WEM Strong Heart Wall will help express their feelings. I’m hoping it will be something positive in the community.”

“Elysian Auto asked if we would be willing to partner on a project again,” WEM head volleyball coach Crystal Lamont said. “Elysian Auto is a great supporter of the WEM School and community. We enjoy partnering with community businesses.” Elysian Auto and the WEM varsity volleyball team partnered last year to sell Buccaneer foam #1 fingers. they also provided a team meal before the Bucs competed in the State Tournament.

“Sue found the heart project and we both agreed it would be perfect”, Lamont said. “we wanted to give the students and community a sign of hope and strength. We are stronger when we are united.”  We are WEM Strong!

Elysian Auto provided the WEM strong signs and the hearts and Lamont got things organized at the school. The art teachers at Waterville and classroom teachers in Morristown had the WEM K-6 students design the hearts. Once the hearts were done the volleyball team stepped up to get them hung up on the Waterville fence. “The kids can see their individual heart hung with the rest of the hearts and see that we are a Buccaneer Family,” Lamont added. “We are all here for each other and we will get through these challenges together.”

Hundreds of hearts were decorated and then attached along with the WEM strong signs which are located on the softball fence near the Waterville Elementary entrance and the tennis court fence in Morristown.





Over 200 decorated hearts are hung on a fence outside Waterville-Elysian-Morristown's elementary school by the high school volleyball team, Monday, Oct. 5, 2020, in Waterville, Minn. The hearts were decorated by students at the elementary and were hung outside to encourage hope and school spirit.

    What Are Winter Tires And Why Do I Need Them? Benefits of Winter Tires It is true that many all-season tires can handle light winter driving to a certain extent. In Minnesota, you might want to think twice about your all-season tires and consider switching over to a winter tire for the snowy months. Winter roads are very unpredictable, you might encounter black ice or heavy snowfall. You will want to be prepared for those situations and to have the best tires possible to help get you on your way.  Here are a few advantages you get with winter tires:  -Longevity: Buying a set of winter tires means you are able to put fewer miles on your regular season tires and they will last longer, and because you will only need winter tires for a few months you will get multiple seasons out of them as well.   -Tread Depth & Traction: Winter tires have a deeper tread depth which helps lessen snow buildup. The specialized tread design also pushes water away from the tire, which allows you to be

  Is Your Vehicle Ready For The Holidays? Before we know it, Christmas and the New Year will be upon us! For a lot of us, that means extra miles on our vehicles.  Making sure your vehicle is ready to take on the fierce Minnesota winter and holiday travel is very important, and might help give you some peace of mind the next time you have to hit the road. Here are a few things you can do to ensure that your vehicle is in top shape and ready for the season: 1. Check your tires, make sure they are in good condition and have a tread depth of at least 5/32". Buying a set of winter tires is another good option, they contain a specialized tread that can help with traction.  2. Check your tire pressure and make sure they are up to manufacturer recommendations. The cold causes tire pressure to drop. 3. Test your battery, the cold is very tough on batteries. Especially pay attention to your cold-cranking amps, this is what will determine if your battery starts in cold temperatures. 4. Repla
