HARTINGTON — Hartington looked like the right town for Dr. Jay Bernecker and his family to call home.

There are several things about Hartington that attracted Bernecker and his wife Miranda – the pool, the parks, the schools and the number of stores that are in town.

“Everything in general shows it is a thriving community that can meet our needs. “With all of the stores that are available we won’t have to go out of town to get what we need,” said Bernecker. “Hartington seems like a nice small town.”

HARTINGTON — Northeast Community College will soon be moving into town.

Hartington Economic Development approached the city Aug. 12 to ask if they would furnish an office for a NECC regional coordinator.

“They would like to have a parttime 15 hours per week regional education center coordinator to be housed in Hartington,” Becker said.

The city approved the motion following a short discussion.

The person in this position would identify program and training needs of the region and represent the college at county and other meetings.
