Wyatt will meet his new dog

Published Saturday, January 19, 2008

You might remember the Dec. 29, 2007, story in The Daily Journal about little Wyatt Herrmann, the 6-year-old Dent boy who was diagnosed with autism two years ago and uses nonverbal communication to communicate. The story went on to explain that Wyatt has a problem wandering off, and his family held hope of getting the boy a $14,000 companion dog to help care for the boy.

That day comes tomorrow when, at a fundraiser in Perham, Wyatt is scheduled to meet his dog, Ivan, for the first time. The fundraiser will run from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Perham. The original story is archived at www.fergusfallsjournal.com.

If you like mixing your dinner with great jazz music, you’ll be out of luck for the next few weeks. The Jazzy Fox Bistro will be temporarily closed for floor refinishing and retiling Jan. 21- Feb. 7. It will reopen Friday, Feb. 8.

Paint and coatings will be available to communities and public organizations located in Otter Tail County to complete a rehabilitation or restoration project.

Comments

The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.

What does the Jazzy Fox and WCI have to do with Wyatt and his dog meeting? Weird they ran 3 stories into one.
