The Inside Sales Team did a little Highway 35 clean-up in Carlton County this week as the summer winds down. The "Highway 35 Squad" includes Noelle D'Amour-Carpenter, Shannon Schrupp, Chris Essler, and Terry Paine.

Meanwhile, the "Inside Squad," of Nancy D'Amour, Kelly Severson, Jodie Melin, and Pat Jackson held down the fort and kept things running smoothly back at the office. Proud to support our communities both on and off the job!
