⚡ We love seeing the work that our members do and the difference they make near and far! ⚡
And this is a pretty impressive one! 👏
Design Electric Inc.'s crew is hard at work on the new Waite Park Public Safety Facility—a massive 75,000-square-foot remodel and addition. 🚒🚓🏢
The project began last summer, and now the team is working through the finishing stages as they head toward completion this fall.
We love getting a behind-the-scenes look at the projects our Chamber members are working on both near and far—and seeing their talent, expertise, and hard work making an impact in other communities!
👏 Great work, Design Electric! We can’t wait to see the finished project!

❤️ THIS. This is community.
You’ve heard us say it before, but when we saw this post from St. Felix School - Wabasha, Mn, we couldn’t help but say it again.
How fortunate are we that the Wabasha-Kellogg area is able to offer families different educational opportunities right here in our community? For an area our size, having both strong public and private school options is something worth appreciating—and each plays its own important role in the fabric of our community.
But what really caught our attention in this post is something else we see time and time again in Wabasha-Kellogg: people stepping up.
When a local business owner sees a need and quietly says, “I can help with that,” that’s community.
Paul Busch’s generosity to St. Felix is a wonderful example of a local person investing back into the place we all call home. It’s neighbors supporting neighbors, businesses supporting organizations, and people using what they have to make our entire community a little stronger.
We love getting to share stories like this. ❤️
THIS is community.
#WabashaKellogg #CommunitySupportingCommunity #ShopLocalA private school such as St. Felix Catholic School, is not able to thrive without the support of many donors/parishioners. This week we want to take the time to recognize an organization and a parishioner.
Paul Busch has gratiously donated to pay for the phone upgrade, switchboard, firewall, and new phones that the school desperately needed. Paul had a chance last week to see the new phones.
We want to thank Safety 1st Playground and maintenance out of Golden Valley for the significant discount for the mulch that was used to beautify our school grounds.
We also want to thank Larry Stenzel for his lead on both of these projects and coordinating the efforts.
Thank you to all those who have donated and supported St. Felix. We keep all of you in our prayers!!
