ST. PAUL – Governor Walz announced today that he will be allowing some sectors of Minnesota’s economy to get back to work effective Saturday morning.

“I am glad Governor Walz is listening to Minnesotans and beginning to open up the economy,” said Franson. “Our golf courses are a huge part of our local economy, and they employ many people in our community who are eager to go back to work.
