Klobuchar: Happy 125th Birthday Tenney Minnesota

Klobuchar calls residents of Minnesota's smallest town to congratulate them on the town's 125th anniversary

May 27, 2010

Washington, D.C. - Disappointed that she was unable to attend the 125th anniversary celebration for Minnesota's smallest town, Senator Amy Klobuchar did the next best thing—she called residents of the town to personally congratulate them. Tenney, founded in 1885 and incorporated in 1901 has a population of four.

"Tenney, Minnesota, population four, may be tiny, but what it lacks in size it makes up in civic spirit. One person serves as mayor, two on the council, and one as the clerk and secretary/treasurer," Klobuchar noted.

Tenney is located in Wilkin County. Andy Martin, Klobuchar's staff in Western Minnesota, will be representing her at the Saturday celebration in Tenney.
