Last Thursday in the  Pioneer Press- I read an article on Withrow Ballroom 
(in Hugo/Stillwater)  closing.  It was MN's oldest ballroom- 80 years.  The 
current owners  have owned it for the last 8 years.  They will finish out this 
season's  wedding receptions, then immediately close their doors- unless someone 
buys  their 10,000 sq. ft. facility very soon.
