Fall in Love with your Job

Iowa Residents file suit against Invenergy/Mid-American Energy!

Employment Connections has positions at Midwest Industries that you will LOVE.

The Iowa wind industry has been enjoying REGULATORY CAPTURE for two decades. It is time for rural residents to have a voice, to be able to defend their PROPERTY RIGHTS against utility companies! Wind companies across Iowa have been skirting our Iowa Utilities Board to avoid environmental impact studies and the opinions of residents in and near proposed installations.

For more details, call Lorena:

712-364-4896 or stop by the FRONT offices of

Palo Alto residents have filed suit!!

*Post-offer, pre-employment drug screen required

Use the WEST parking lot across the street from Adams Motors.

The office of the Consumer Advocate is backing this case. Every wind project over 25 MW in Iowa will be impacted!

TAKE ACTION!

Rooted Boutique is a contemporary misses’, women’s and little girls’ clothing store. The product, purchased from Chicago and Minneapolis markets, is new and unique to the area. It offers quality, functional, stylish and utility pieces for your wardrobe that will withstand trends and become your “go-to� things in your closet. Owner Emily Doxtad of Holstein said, “Rooted was started in November, 2016, as an ‘attic boutique’ out of my home. In spring, 2017, Rooted moved into a 36-foot snowmobile trailer turned mobile boutique doing ‘pop up’ clothing parties, farmers’ markets and festivals. In September, we purchased the Ruble’s Flooring building in Holstein and remodeled into an industrial/modern space and opened in late November. “Rooted became the name of the business for many reasons. First, the product has natural aesthetic: lots of black, grey, ivory, olive and blush tones. Many of the brands at Rooted are made in the U.S. and are of natural fabrics, like cotton and linen. Secondly, I think it’s important for us women and girls to identify who we are at the ‘root,’ and clothing can help showcase that. Finally, I am a Holstein native, graduated from ISU with a business marketing degree and am proud to be ‘rooted’ in Holstein with my family and now business.� Current hours are: Thursdays—10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Fridays and Saturdays—10 a.m. to 5 p.m., and Sundays—1-4 p.m., to accommodate women and high school girls with full weekly schedules.
