A nearby business experienced a fuel container explosion a little after 1pm today. Emergency crews have responded to the scene and as of 2:15pm the area has been declared safe.

Out of an abundance of caution while navigating after school transportation, Dave Goldberg Family Boys & Girls Club has suspended programming for today.

All other Heritage Center programming (Duluth Amateur Hockey Association) will continue as scheduled now that we have received word that the area is safe.

We had the Duluth Fire Department and Tortoise and Hare stop by the Dave Goldberg Boys and Girls Club today to get new shoes and backpacks distributed to the Club as well as conduct the Firefighter Youth Combat Challenge!

We recently had the privilege of dedicating our Administrative Offices in honor of Jerry DeMeo.

Jerry was the longtime President/CEO of the Heritage Center and more recently served as Trustee for the Duluth Heritage Center Foundation and Board Member/Secretary for the EDHC Center Board. Jerry has steered the Heritage through many challenges and been a steady hand at the wheel.

Jerry's final board meeting was in June and we wanted to honor his sense of duty, steadfast advocacy for our community and tremendous leadership.

When you enter the Heritage Center lobby you'll see the DeMeo Administrative Office to your right, which houses both Heritage and DAHA staff.

Thank you for the legacy you've left, Jerry

It was great to host so many Bulldogs for their annual Pro Camp. Good luck to these alumni as they start reporting to their teams for the upcoming season.

What a love letter to Duluth and all the people involved in creating community.

We have a rich history and a bright future when we work together for our kids and families.
