What a terrific place to live!

Jayden Miller throws a pitch for the Belgrade-Brooten 5th-6th grade Summer Rec team during the Bonanza Valley Days youth baseball tournament on July 12, 2012.

And who can forget the memorable performance by The Realtors at Bonanza Valley Days in 2013!


Call me biased, as I grew up on the far southern reaches of the Bonanza Valley in central Minnesota, but I can't help but share my excitement and gratitude for being able to work here.

This blog will highlight all that is terrific about the Brooten / Terrace / Sedan / Sunburg / Padua / Elrosa / Grove Lake areas of central Minnesota.

Thank you for visiting!
