March Newsletter
Welcome to the Meier’s
Please join us in welcoming Tim, Kara & Maggie!!
They moved into their home on Friday, the 24th, arriving from Arizona in spite of the weather—nothing like a good spring storm to welcome them back to the area. Tim is an orthopedic PA at St Joseph’s, Kara is currently managing the organization & unpacking of their new home and Maggie will be a sophomore at Park Rapids Area High school, also joining them are their dog, Tebow & cat, Nala. They have 2 sons as well who are still living in Arizona— Easton who was recently married in December of 2022 to Kaylee and Griffin who is attending Grand Canyon University in Phoenix studying Mechanical engineering.
Please join us in welcoming them to our awesome community!

Tip of the Month
March’s tip comes from Tim Parker Family Glass in Park Rapids—Cleaning your glass shower doors and mirror, they recommend using Aquapel Glass Cleaner, this is what they use after they install all shower doors & mirrors, spray it on and wipe it off with a microfiber cloth.
They have this product available for sale in their shop.
