Little League baseball is well under way in Cromwell, Wright, Tamarack, McGregor, Jacobson, and Floodwood. Games are Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6:30 p.m. Come support our youth and watch them play. Concession available at all games. Proceeds help keep the teams in uniforms and gear, and help keep the fields in good working order.

The City of Cromwell would like to thank the Villa Court Partnership for bringing such a wonderful facility to our community. The Cardinal Court Assisted Living Facility is up and running. A beautiful and well staffed facility offering a full range of care needs to its residents. They are taking applications now and have nine or thirty rooms already filled. If anyone has not seen it yet, they should stop in for a full tour; you won’t believe your eyes. A special thanks to Mike and Julie Peterson for all their hard work in building this dream facility.

Another thanks you for the City of Cromwell to the Big Sandy Area Lakes Water Management Project for their support of our community. We have received over $16,000.00 in grants from their group in the last two years for projects in our community. This group is dedicated to keeping our watershed clean and preserved. Tom Johnson, Mayor Huhta, and Scott Warner have worked hand-in-hand keep vehicles from entering the beach and destroying the shoreline and an erosion control project by the new Cardinal Court which includes a 650ft fence around our two wellheads.
