✅ Weekly Wonder Answer Time!

The correct answer is… D) All of the above! 🎉

👏 Shoutout to everyone who guessed correctly—you nailed it!
Here’s how CAP’s Energy Assistance Program supports our community:

💡 Lower Monthly Bills
Helps eligible households pay for heating and electric costs so families can stay safe and comfortable.

🔌 Keep the Lights On
Provides support to prevent utility shutoffs—or even restore service if it’s already been disconnected.

🏡 Plan for the Future
Connects households with energy-saving resources and efficiency improvements to reduce costs long-term.

CAP is all about meeting immediate needs and helping build long-term stability—and this program does both. 💙

✨ Stay tuned for next week’s Weekly Wonder!

The Rhythm on the Rails event that was happening TOMORROW night has been CANCELLED due to weather. Check out the RR post below for more information.

📣 WEATHER UPDATE: JUNE 17TH

With safety as our top priority and having consulted with local weather experts, we have made the decision to reschedule our upcoming concert on June 17th. This decision comes in light of forecasted conditions during our setup window that pose a risk to our production crew and staff.

The concert will be rescheduled to August 5th — more details to come.

We appreciate your patience and understanding, and we look forward to seeing you on June 24th for Not Quite Brothers!

🐥A brood of ducklings got stuck in a drainage grate this morning! Luckily, CAP Agency employees help people AND ducks.

🙌 Mama duck was keeping a close, watchful eye on her babies. With a little teamwork, we rescued all 8 ducklings and reunited them with their mama!

🚓An officer from the Shakopee Police Department safely guided the family across the VERY busy 1st Ave, as they made their way toward the Minnesota River.

💛A happy ending and a great example of teamwork and care for our community — feathered friends included!
