Hometown Conversations
Hometown Conversations is a podcast dedicated to telling the stories of people in and around Hutchinson, Minnesota. Roman Bloemke and Jill Springer are your hosts. The podcast is a bi-weekly show. We started this podcast with the idea that within each community there are hundreds of stories that go untold. Our hope with this podcast is that we can help bring those stories to light. Guests will range from people around our hometown of Hutchinson, Minnesota, surrounding communities, and on occasion, just the two of us.

It is one of my favorite times of year - music festival season. Hutchinson has a real gem of a festival that, if you haven't been to it yet, this is the year to change that. RiverSong Music Festival is set to begin this weekend on July 15th and 16th with acts from all over Minnesota.
Well, what can we say? After a month (or more) off, we are back - and kicking it old school so to speak. When we started the podcast, we alternated between conversations with guests, and then, just ourselves. Over the past several episodes, we have gotten away from that and we missed it. So we are back with just a wide range of topics this week with just Roman and Jill.
As always, thanks for listening...
Kids today are faced with a tough choice - what do I do after high school. If we think about it hard enough, we probably dealt with the same things. The Hutchinson School District created a program called TigerPath to help guide kids through what career choices are available to them. Then built classes in the school to help get kids exposure to those ideas. From job shadowing, to mentor, to class work, Tiger...
