25 years ago… From the Shakopee Valley News, 1986 Become a word processor, an electronic repair technician, an accounting clerk, a computer operator or programmer. These are a sample of the occupations for which you can train at no cost to you. The Twin Cities Opportunities Industrialization Center has been providing full scholarship training to all its students since 1966. It’s now possible to see a doctor taking out tonsils the old-fashioned, and probably very painful way in Shakopee. The circa 1880s doctor’s office is one of four new attractions at Murphy’s Landing which opened at the 1860s-1880s representative village.
The Second Avenue parking lot, which is almost fi nished, features a red brick retaining wall, concrete steps down to Second Avenue, trees and a wooden railing. Decorative light poles will be installed. The parking lot, located between Holmes and Lewis streets, was built as a demonstration model for the downtown’s future “streetscape” project.
50 years ago… From the Shakopee Valley News, 1961 The new three-year motor vehicle license plates will go on sale all over the state, it was announced by Brendan Suel, deputy motor vehicle registrar. W hen you receive the IBM application and the registration card, bring both to the Deputy Registrar for issuance of plates.

Southside of First Avenue between Holmes Street and Lewis Street during the 1940s. Mrs. William J. Runge will serve as chairman of the 1961 “Little Red Stocking Neighbor to Neighbor Appeal” in Shakopee. This appeal supports the work for the Children’s Home Society of Minnesota, the only private, non-denominational adoption agency in the state. Since its establishment in 1889, the Society has cared for more than 8,400 homeless children. A lder men P rop o s e Cit y Expansion Study….A ninemember committee will be appointed, consisting of three aldermen, three planning commissioners and three public officials, to study possible expansion, pointing out that the city is rapidly reaching the point where no residential building lots are available. Although Eagle Creek adjoins Shakopee on the east side and Jackson Township on the south, it is not the purpose to annex these two townships as such unless the investigation should determine that this is feasible and the residents of the affected areas were in agreement.
100 years ago… From the Scott County Argus, 1911 The Board of Education of Shakopee has under consideration the inauguration of some special courses into our high school to meet the needs or demands of young men and women of the community who are unable to attend school the entire year. James J Hill, “Empire Builder of the Northwest,” of St Paul, celebrated his 73rd birthday. If there is another man in the United States who has passed the allotted time of three score years and 10 and has done as much work in his lifetime and still retains a keen intellect and can yet do much important work in a day…St Paul would like to know who he is. Under New Management…. Best of service, rates $1 to $1.50 per day. M. Vanderstegan, proprietor…St. Paul Hotel. First-class bar connected; good stabling accommodations... Shakopee, Minnesota.
