In the Fillmore County Journal article titled “R-P Backpack Program fills nutrition gap” published in the December 31, 2018, issue, it was misstated that the Backpack Program was originally started by Kristy Tweeten. The program was started several years ago by representatives of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, St. Mark’s Lutheran Church, St. John’s Lutheran Church, Root River Community Church, Destiny Life Church, Emmanuel Episcopal Church, Rushford Lutheran Church, First Presbyterian Church & Trinity Fellowship, Highland Lutheran Church, R-P schools and Semcac. Tweeten saw the need to have milk added to the backpacks which began in the spring of 2018. We apologize for this error.
