Dr. Sheri Marnell, St. Croix Valley Business Innovation Center Sep 23, 2026

Show notes

As the director of the St. Croix Valley Business Innovation Center, Dr. Sheri Marnell has run into a problem: the center is running out of space for local businesses looking to join the incubator. Thankfully for Sheri and everyone else involved, the Business Innovation Center is about to get bigger. The City of River Falls and the River Falls Economic Development Corporation recently received a grant for $2.2 million to expand the innovation center, meaning more local businesses can grow and thrive – and in turn, help the local economy.

On this episode of the Kinni Cast, Sheri joins to talk about the innovation center and the work she does to help entrepreneurs. She also discusses the expansion and what this grant will mean for the innovation center as it continues to help businesses grow right here in the St. Croix Valley.

Charles Larson and Nate Herum, Public Works May 20, 2026

Show notes

For the staff of the River Falls Public Works department, every day is a little different. Sometimes they’re out late, clearing the streets during a snowstorm. In the summer, they might be mowing the parks one day and putting up new street signs the next day. And as was the case just last week, they might even have to pick up a giant dead trout that somehow appeared on a sidewalk outside of City Hall.

As we celebrate Public Works Week, we’re joined on this episode of the Kinni Cast by Charles Larson and Nate Herum, two of our public works employees who share more about the work that goes on behind the scenes to help keep River Falls clean and beautiful each and every day.
