The Elm Springs News is a weekly column written and compiled by Matthew J Trask, detailing the lives of the people in Elm Springs, South Dakota. Started in 2003, the original column debuted in the Pennington County Courant, and has since grown to a worldwide audience. Often compared to the popular radio program “A Prairie Home Companion,” the ESN is a taste of Americana, based on real events and real people…an escape from the stress and facade of the big city.

The ESN is published each Sunday night on HubbasHouse.com and in that week’s Courant. To read the newest column or browse through past editions, click here.
