Blue Earth County will celebrate National County Government Month (NCGM) during the month of April. The theme for this year’s celebration of NCGM is “Counties Matter,” demonstrating how counties help to improve people’s lives every day, especially for local government workers on the frontlines of the coronavirus pandemic. Counties provide public health services, administer justice, keep communities safe, foster economic opportunities and much more.
