Good morning, Saint Joseph.

Two Lafayette High School seniors raised $1,517 for the Open Door Food Kitchen with a buffet dinner fundraiser that offered raffle prizes from local businesses.

The funds, which will cover meals for five Sundays, provide a welcome boost to the privately funded nonprofit in town.

Fred the dog broke through a frozen pond in his owner's yard and was rescued by SJFD — who used warm blankets and cuddles to help him recover — with his family relieved after the incident.

The City of St. Joseph announced that several offices and facilities are closed or have limited hours today for Martin Luther King Jr. Day, with the landfill operating from 7:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and the recycling center open with regular hours.
