From the Shakopee Valley News, 1982 Shakopee has been chosen among American cities as the site for the National Consumer Education Week kickoff on April 26. President Reagan has already signed a proclamation and so has Gov. Al Quie, who will read his proclamation during a ceremony at 1:30 p.m. April 26 at the First National Bank of Shakopee. Shakopee was chosen as the site because this is where Consumer Education Week first started, said Virgil Mears, who coordinates the program for Shakopee Independent School District 720. Toro Co. of Bloomington has announced tentative plans to sell its Shakopee Die-Casting facility as part of an overall consolidation of operations in Minnesota, Iowa and Wisconsin. Toro is the largest independent marketer and manufacturer of snow removal and lawn equipment in the county. Erratic snowfall and tight economy over the past couple years are largely responsible for the $20 million in losses realized over the last 18 months.
