Happy Cinco de Mayo, everyone. We hope you all have a great day.
Unfortunately, due to a problem with the printing press, we had to go retro this week and go black-and-white on the front page.
Hopefully, they will be up and running next week. In the meantime, we have plenty of news to share with you in color or not, all right here in black & white.
This week we pay our respects to one of Mason City's leading ladies. The 2nd Friday Mingle in Mason City, a hilarious dinner theater, and romping in Havana. All this and much more can be found in this week's issue of the Mason County Democrat. Available now in newsstands, online, or home delivery.
