📰 News we're reading
• Marvin Schaak, 89 (montgomerymnnews.com) — New Prague residents are mourning longtime community member Marvin Schaak, 89, with visitations this Friday at Bruzek Funeral Home and a funeral Saturday at St. Wenceslaus Catholic Church. Marvin and his wife Ann retired to New Prague after a life of farming, construction work, and community service, and he leaves behind a large, close-knit family and many friends. 
• NYA starts planning for new water treatment plant (hometownsource.com) — New Prague’s wastewater technology is helping shape plans in nearby Norwood Young America, whose council just chose a biological aerated filter system after touring a similar facility in New Prague. The new NYA plant, estimated at up to $76 million, will anchor Tacoma West Industrial Park and accompany a sizable new housing development, signaling broader regional growth that may affect New Prague-area residents and businesses.
