Curiosity about the inner workings of Minnetonka's municipal machine can be sated this February and March, as the city rolls out its annual Minnetonka Academy, a free program designed to provide locals with a comprehensive insight into the city’s operations. Spanning five weeks, with sessions held on Tuesdays between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m., attendees will be immersed in the day-to-day activities of various city departments, including police, fire, parks, recreation, and community development.

The Academy commences on February 25th and draws to a close on March 25th at various locations throughout the city, according to the announcement made by the City of Minnetonka on their official website. Those eager to broaden their understanding of their local government's responsibilities and challenges must secure their spot by registering before February 18th, using registration code (#2020201); this is an opportunity for residents to engage directly with the individuals who steward their city's services and to gain a more nuanced appreciation of municipal governance.

For additional information or to assuage any queries about the program, interested parties are invited to reach out to Senior Management Coordinator Sarissa Falk at 952-939-8211.
