Every spring since 2017, the Olseth Family Foundation and Greater Mankato Area United Way have partnered to distribute copies of Shel Silverstein's "Where the Sidewalk Ends" to fourth-graders in public and private schools throughout Blue Earth, Le Sueur, Nicollet and Waseca counties. Community members are welcome to this free event on May 4 as we celebrate a decade of bringing poetry and literacy to students across our region. Registration required. Please contact United Way at 507-345-4551 or events@mankatounitedway.org with any questions.
