Truck driver
sentenced to
probation in
fatal crash
By Michelle McLean
A Walcott, N.D. truck driver was
sentenced Wednesday to three years
of supervised probation for his role
in the traffic death of a Cummings
woman a year ago this week.
Ryan Berggren, 27, entered an
Alford plea in East Central District
Court in Hillsboro Wednesday
morning. Berggren’s attorney, Bruce
Quick of Fargo, noted for the record
that the plea is not an admission of
guilt but an acknowledgement that
enough evidence exists that guilt
could be determined by jury.
Berggren was accused of driving
a semi truck hauling a combine on a
trailer without safety lights and causing
the death of 72-year-old Barbara
Mueller, a farmer from Cummings.
Traill County States Attorney Stuart
Larson stated later that the plea
agreement was “as close to justice
as we could get” in the case. Larson
added that he personally knew the
victim for

Smokers may
face higher
taxes, more
regulations
By Matt Thompson
More restrictions and higher taxes
may be in store for smokers in North
Dakota if supporters of a new proposal
are successful. Earlier this month,
the Tobacco Prevention and Control
Advisory Committee unveiled a plan
to raise the cigarette tax to $2.00 per
pack in North Dakota and ban smoking
in bars and outdoor public areas.
The committee’s goals are to help
reduce smoking in the state and curb
tobacco use by young people, and
hopes that the new tax and state-wide
ban are in place by 2014.
Helping to reduce smoking in the
state will also help reduce secondhand
smoke, which area legislators
say is an important goal for the state.
“I’m for anything that will curtail
[smoking],” said North Dakota District
20 Sen. Elroy Lindaas.
State Rep. Lee Kaldor also supports
the plan and said that “there is a
need to do this,” and added that “secondhand
smoke is much more dangerous
than we once thought.”
Kaldor acknowledges that some
“people see this as a restriction of
freedom,” but points to the fact that
under the Clean Water Act, “we can’t
pollute our streams and drinking
water,” and that air pollution due to

TCEDC discusses first
stragetic planning meeting
By Kristin Anderson
The Traill County Economic Development Commission recently held
their regular meeting at Rockin’ Rodney’s in Galesburg. The meeting began
with a roundtable discussion with Galesburg City Councilman Jeff Voltz,
who talked about the community.
Voltz said the town’s three major businesses — the elevator, John Deere
dealer and bean/seed plant — are doing well and that there are not many
houses available to buy in Galesburg, but lots are available to build. According
to TCEDC Director Melissa Hennen, the discussion was productive
and she hopes to have similar representatives talk at the beginning of future
TCEDC meetings.
After a lengthy discussion, the full board approved Hennen to pursue
membership into Rural Leadership North Dakota, a program through the
N.D. extension agency that focuses on improving communities in a number
of ways. Hennen has an interview in Fargo to determine if she will be accepted
into the program, since only 20 are allowed in.
The board also gave an update on how their first strategic planning session
went, led by facilitator Terry Kemmer. During this session, Kemmer
helped the board revise and update their mission and set goals. According
to Hennen, the TCEDC will focus on three broad goals: population development,
community development and resource development. Within each of
these, there are a number of smaller goals and milestones the board will work
to accomplish. They broke down each one, setting time frames to keep them
on track and keep them accountable, Hennen said.
Another item on the agenda was Hennen’s six-month review and probation
period. Her review will be done by the executive committee on Thursday,
Aug. 6. Originally, Hennen was hired below the initial pay scale with
the intention of having her do some additional training and learning. After
six months, if all of the things on her review are accomplished, she will be
eligible to be bumped up to the pay scale. After six months, the probation
period will also be up with the county, making Hennen eligible for vacation
time.
In other business:
• Director Hennen will be working on the 2010 budget, which is due the first
week in August.
• The TCEDC is trying to get in contact with the Dakota Boys Ranch, which
is having a difficult time finding a place to build in Fargo, to see if they
would be interested in building somewhere in Traill County. Hennen hasn’t
gotten a response back from them yet.
• The second strategic planning meeting was held Thursday, July 23 at the
Heritage Room on the Mayville State University campus. The third and final
one is scheduled for Thursday, July 30 from 4-6 p.m. in the Heritage Room.
Mayville P.D. receives funds
by Shelia R. Anderson
Mayville Police Chief Damon
Bradshaw received notification from
the N.D. Governor’s Office that his
application for funding for a project
had been approved and that his department
would be receiving $89,800
in JAG Stimulus Funding. The grant
application was for funds for a third
officer to provide improved service to
the campus of Mayville State University.
The funds will be administered
along specific guidelines and conditions.
The letter signed by Gov. John
Hoeven and Attorney General Wayne
Stenehjem stated that the goal of
the Drug and Violent Crime Policy
Board is to encourage programs that
will have a positive impact on the
drug and violent crime in the state.
The application submitted by Chief
Bradshaw was approved because it
worked toward that goal, according
to the letter.

Iverson says she will miss MSU, people
Mayville State University prides itself on being “the school of personal service,” and earlier this month one university
member who was especially dedicated to providing that personal touch retired. “I really enjoy the people and the students,”
said Mary Iverson, who retired as the university’s registrar on July 15.
For over 30 years, Iverson has been maintaining students’ records and helping them register for classes. During that
time the university has seen many changes, but Iverson’s devotion to assisting each and every student didn’t diminish.
“Things have changed. The students register by computer, so we don’t get to meet them,” Iverson said. “I got to know a
lot of the students and I really, really enjoyed that, so that’s one of the things I really miss,” she added.
While Iverson says that she enjoyed working at Mayville State, the job also proved to be demanding. “It was always
a challenge; there was never any dull moment. It was very stressful, but I really enjoyed the people. The people up there
are wonderful.”
One of the challenges that Iverson had to face was dealing with angry students. After the school transitioned to an online
registration system, students only came to Iverson if they had a problem registering for classes or with their academic
records. “That’s another thing I did learn, was if a student was upset, they weren’t upset with me, they were upset with the
situation. So all I would do was sit and listen to them and let them vent,” Iverson said.
Iverson may be familiar to most MSU students as a patient, understanding ear in the Academic Records department, but
Iverson’s devotion to students and the university also extends to athletics. “I’ve been an advocate for women’s athletics,”
Iverson said. She said that the university has made great strides in terms of equality for women athletes, but she “wishes
we could have more female coaches.”
When Iverson first came to Mayville State in 1977 she was on the athletic committee and made it her goal to make women’s
sports a bigger part of athletics at the university. “I really wanted to make sure that women’s athletics were important
and that they were treated equally, so I did everything that I could to help out with that.” Iverson noted that when she attended Mayville State as a student in the late 1960s, women who wanted to join sports
were limited to being on the gymnastics team that performed during halftime, so she “was thrilled when my daughter got to play basketball at the college level.”
Iverson graduated from Mayville State in 1968 and afterward she became a teacher before returning to MSU in 1977. She married in 1969 and decided to stop teaching so she

Latest water problem
surfaces in southwest
corner of county
By NEIL O. NELSON
Hardly ever without water causing problems somewhere on its flat landscape,
even in a seemingly dry spell, the Traill County Commission this week
was told of the latest dilemma, this one in the far southwest corner of the
county.
For a change, the flooding is being caused by water coming from Cass and
Steele counties, which empties into the Elm River in Galesburg Township.
Generally, Traill’s five commissioners are invited to help settle disputes that involve
the Goose River and its tributaries. Or, they’re asked to intervene where
legal drains are being proposed.
Watershed disputes also appear regularly on the commission’s agenda. The
replacement of bridges with culverts is another popular topic. And, as often is
the case, the commissioners this week heard the arguments for increased drainage,
promising to take the matter under advisement. A resolution to the matter,
however, was not promised.
Board chairman Arne Osland thanked the three Galesburg Township farmers
for bringing the matter to the attention of the commission. “We better understand
the issue now.”
Minutes earlier, the commission instructed road and bridge superintendent
Aaron Lande to research costs in replacing Bridge 408 with two 72 in. culverts,
the recommendation of Bob Boone, consulting engineer for the Traill County
Water Resource District. The bridge, which is holding water back where the
Elm River crosses the section line in the northwest
corner of Galesburg Township (TWPs 5, 6), cannot

Traill County shows support for all military personnel
By NEIL O. NELSON
Traill County is on record in support of its veterans, current military members and their families.The county officially came on
board when its five commissioners signed the Community Military Covenant that originated in Bismarck this spring, when
North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven, legislative leaders, officials from each branch of the U.S. military, representatives from tribal
governments and veterans organizations, in addition to the North Dakota League of Cities and the North Dakota Association
of Counties, launched the campaign.
Traill County commissioners Arne Larson, Steve Larson, Ron Peterson, Tom Eblen and Kurt Elliot signed the state’s first
Community Military Covenant Tuesday morning Hillsboro. Commanders and representatives from seven veterans posts in the
county also signed the paper that acknowledges the state’s support for military personnel, past and present.
North Dakota’s service members, Hoeven said, “are being called on more and more to serve their state and country,
whether defending freedom in foreign lands or protecting communities from rising flood waters.”
This covenant, the governor explained, exemplifies our gratitude for their service and sacrifice and strengthens our commitment
to support them and
their families.
“We sign this covenant in honor of the
patriots who have dedicated their lives to
defending this great nation and the ideals on
which it was founded.”
Representing their respective posts at the covenant signing were VFW and American Legion post members The North Dakota Interservice Family
Assistance Committee (ISFAC), and the
Glenn Dahlstrom, Steve Holt, Kenneth Voltz, Rich Gehrke, Dale Bakkum, Les Ashe, George Brustad, Richard
Peterson, Ivan Johnson and Wayne Satrom. Les Ashe is the Traill County Veterans Service Officer.
state’s league of cities and association of
counties wanted the state’s 53 counties and
its major cities all on board by Aug. 1.
If that goal is achieved, North Dakota will be the first state in the nation to achieve 100 percent support.
According to the architects of the Community Military Covenant, the initiative is not borne of a need to gather support. Rather, they said, it stems from a desire to
formalize the incredible commitment cities, counties, tribal governments and the business community have made to members of the military and their families.
The flood efforts last spring drove home what an important role the military and community members share, and its just one of many examples that are recognized
with the covenant. according to SFAC members.
In adopting the slogan Standing Strong Together and offering different suggestions in how communities can reach out to the veteran, current military members and
their families, the signers of the Community Military
Covenant also committed themselves and their respective communities and organizations to —
• Remember the service members who made the ultimate sacrifice for freedom.
“We will support their families and we will never forget.”
• Expand services to assist all wounded warriors and families in

He remarked that the Mueller family had
“mixed emotions” about the outcome of
the case, adding that no punishment will
“ever, ever replace a person.”
Berggren was originally charged in
January with negligent homicide in connection
with the accident that killed Mueller
on July 25, 2008. He pled not guilty
to the felony charge in March and a trial
was set for July 20. The charge carried a
maximum penalty of five years in prison.
In June, the felony charge was reduced
to reckless endangerment. Berggren also
faced two additional counts of reckless
endangerment in respect to two other
victims who survived the accident near
Blanchard on Hwy. 18. For sentencing
purposes, the amended reckless endangerment
charges were regarded as Class
A misdemeanors.
As recommended by states attorney
Larson, District Judge Georgia Dawson
ordered a 12-month prison sentence suspended
for three years and a $500 court
fee for the charge relating to Mueller’s
death. On the second reckless endangerment
charge, Berggren was sentenced to
one year in the Traill County Jail. It was
also suspended for two years and additional
court fee of $300 was levied. Berggren
will serve three years of supervised
probation.
Judge Dawson said she had read
several victim impact statements prior
to sentencing Berggren. She noted “the
tragic set of circumstances” surrounding
the case. “Accidents occur in life,” she
said. “We do our best to prevent them.
It appears, in this case, more could have
been done to prevent this accident.”
Five of Mueller’s eight adult children
were present in the Hillsboro courtroom
for the sentencing. They declined to comment
about the case.
The N.D. Highway Patrol’s report of
the July 25 accident stated that Berggren
was driving a Freightliner semi about 10
p.m. when it stalled on the Elm River
bridge one-half mile south of Blanchard
on state Hwy. 18. He eventually got the
semi running but a car with two passengers
hit the combine’s tires as it sat on the
bridge. Moments later Mueller’s Ford
Explorer struck the tires, the patrol’s report
noted. Mueller was pronounced dead
at the scene.
The two passengers in the car were
not injured but the car was extensively
damaged.
The bridge, where the accident occurred
is 130 feet long and 30 feet wide
from curb to curb, according to the N.D.
Dept. of Transportation. The combine
measured 17 feet across at its widest
point. Neither the trailer nor combine
had additional lighting, according to the
NDHP report.
According to documents read in court
Wednesday, as the trailer sat on the bridge
the combine’s tires reached more than
three feet into the oncoming traffic lane.
Larson pointed out that at the time of the
accident “it was well after civil and legal
dark.” With no emergency lights, the stationary
trailer and its oversized load gave
no warning to approaching traffic, Larson
said.
Berggren’s legal issues now shift to
civil court. In April, two of Mueller’s
sons filed a wrongful death suit in connection
with the accident. The civil lawsuit
names Berggren and the farmers he
worked for, Raedell and Dan Braaten
of Braaten Farms of Kindred, N.D. and
seeks at least $50,000 in damages.
The civil case alleges that Berggren
was negligent in several ways. The suit
asserts that the driver traveled or parked
on a highway with a wide load after sunset,
hauled the load in an unsafe manner,
allowed it to extend into Mueller’s driving
lane and failed to warn others of the
unsafe load. The suit also alleges that
the Braatens were negligent by failing
to properly instruct, train and supervise
Berggren; failing to properly service,
repair and maintain the vehicle; and failing
to provide proper safety equipment,
according to documents filed in with the
court.
Berggren and the Braatens denied
all of the allegations in their response to
the lawsuit. They also asserted that Mueller’s
death was “the result of her fault
or the fault of others over whom (they)
exercised no control and for whose acts
they have no legal responsibility,” court
documents state.
A jury trial is scheduled for August
2010.
Mueller was a lifelong farmer in the
Cummings area. She is survived by eight
grown children, 26 grandchildren, six
great-grandchildren and eight siblings.
secondhand smoke should be treated
similarly.
Mark Petri, owner of Heros and
Legends Sports Bar in Mayville,
agrees that many of his patrons find
the proposal to be too restrictive.
“Even the non-smokers feel that today
there’s a probably a little bit of an
intrusion in their life. … I think this
is probably, in their eyes, this is overstepping
the bounds,” Petri said.
Mark Lipsiea, owner of Stub’s Bar
in Mayville, also thinks the ban is a
limitation of freedom. “As a business
owner, I don’t think anybody
has a right to tell me I can’t let my
customers smoke,” Lipsiea said. He
also said that he hasn’t received any
complaints about secondhand smoke,
because his customers and employees
“know there’s smoking, so no, I really
haven’t,” Lipsiea said.
Petri also hasn’t had complaints
about secondhand smoke. “I introduce
the fact that I am a smoking bar,
so anybody that interviews with me
knows up front, that’s the environment,”
Petri said.
Both Petri and Lipsiea say that the
proposed ban would significantly impact
their businesses. “Financially,
dollar for dollar, it makes sense to allow
people to do what they want in
the bar,” Petri said. He added that
he operates a restaurant that is nonsmoking
and that the restaurant’s patrons
appreciate the environment, but
that his bar customers also appreciate
being able to smoke. “If I thought I
could make more money, draw more
people in a smoke-free environment,
I would do it. Why wouldn’t I?” Petri
said.
While local legislators are supportive
of the proposal, concerns
from business owners, like Petri,
aren’t being ignored. Rep. Richard
Holman supports the proposal but
says that “we need to do things so we
don’t hurt businesses, and if we do it
so they can make adjustments, I think
it’s a good deal.”
Local bar owners don’t have to
worry about losing customers quite
yet. The proposal still need to be approved
by the state Legislature, and
Rep. Richard Holman said that the
proposal “will be a tough sell to more
conservative people.” If the proposal
isn’t approved by the Legislature, it
could be put to a vote. If that happens,
Kaldor remains optimistic that
“citizens will be supportive” of the
proposal.

“Go to class. There’s no reason to

Mayville State has been a major
part of Iverson’s life, and even though
she plans to spend her retirement visiting
her family and relaxing at her lake
home, MSU will continue to be important
to her. “I know I will remain
involved,” Iverson said. Though she’s
not sure in what capacity she will continue

“this is home. It’s very, very dear to

MeritCare receives major
national accreditation
MeritCare has been granted a
three-year, full accreditation by the
National Accreditation Program for
Breast Centers (NAPBC). Administered
by the American College of
Surgeons, MeritCare is one of the
first 51 hospitals, a mere five percent
in the nation, to achieve this status –
and the only hospital in North Dakota
or South Dakota. To obtain accreditation,
MeritCare had to show its
commitment to providing the highest
level of quality breast care through
proficiency in center leadership, clinical
management, research, community
outreach, professional education
and quality improvement.
While this accreditation is significant
to MeritCare, patients will
ultimately benefit from the overall
value this accreditation brings. “This
is something we did to show current
and future patients that we want to

MeritCare breast patients have access
to state-of-the-art services and
equipment. Once diagnosed, patients
will immediately meet with a team of
doctors and care staff to evaluate the
best method of treatment moving forward.
They are assigned a case manager
who will help them navigate the
care system. Patients will also be the
first to hear about ongoing clinical
trials and new treatment options. This
accreditation also means that there
will be more support for prevention
and early detection programs, as well
as education and support for breast
patients. Finally, patients will have
access to incredible quality breast
care close to home.

New project enhances patient safety
at North Dakota hospitals
The North Dakota Critical Access
Hospital (NDCAH) Quality Network
announces a new effort to enhance
patient safety across the state: the
Statewide Information Management
Project. Participating hospitals collect
information related to patient
safety at their facility and use it to
make improvements; they also share
best practices with each other. The
web-based management system allows
for efficient information gathering
and analysis.
The project is supported by the
Center for Rural Health at the University
of North Dakota School of Medicine
and Health Sciences, and the
management system is a product of
Chicago-based consulting firm, Clarity
Group, Inc. The Quality Network
serves as a common place for Critical
Access Hospitals to share education
and resources to help advance health
care quality and safety in the state.
“Last year the Quality Network
tested the possibility of working together
to collect information that
could have a positive impact on patient
safety in the rural health care setting,”
said Jody Ward, NDCAH Quality
Network Coordinator. “We’re
excited to roll out this program in
13 of North Dakota’s rural hospitals,
with plans to add more participants.”
Participants include:
• First Care Health Center, Park
River;
• Heart of America Medical Center,
Rugby;
• Hillsboro Medical Center, Hillsboro;
• McKenzie County Memorial
Hospital, Watford City;
• Nelson County Health System,
McVille;
• Northwood Deaconess Health
Center, Northwood;
• St. Aloisius Medical Center, Harvey;
• Sakakawea Medical Center, Ha-
zen;
• Southwest Health Care, Bowman;
• Tioga Medical Center, Tioga;
• Towner County Medical Center,
Cando;
• Union Hospital, Mayville; and
• Unity Medical Center, Grafton,
“We have recognized the benefit,”
said Coleen Bomber of Northwood
Deaconess Health Center. “It’s easy
to access information and hospitals
can use it to create positive change.”
“This has been an important project
because it demonstrates the power
of data in supporting safety and quality
efforts of rural health care, which is
the backbone of the U.S. health care
system. We are pleased to be working
with North Dakota as they continue
with their innovative program,” said
Anna Hajek, President and CEO of
Clarity Group.

Putting on God’s Armor
It seems that nearly every day we are being
tested to see if we really trust in our Heavenly
Father. Each day brings not only joy and happiness,
but trials and tribulations that challenge
our faith and confidence in God. Our
Lord never promised us a trouble-free life, but
He did tell us He would never leave or forsake
us. The Bible, in Ephesians, tells us what we
should do to combat the evils of this world.
In prayer, we should put on God’s armor. We
should stand ready, with truth as a belt tight
around our waist; with righteousness as our
breastplate; and as our shoes, the readiness
to announce the Good News of peace. At all
times, carry faith as a shield, for with it you
will be able to put out all the burning arrows
shot by the evil one. And accept salvation as
a helmet and the word of God as the sword
which the Spirit gives us. Every day in prayer,
we should put on the Armor of God, and if
we draw close to Him, then God will draw
close to us. When God is with us we should
have nothing to fear.
Do all this in prayer, asking for God’s help.
Pray on every occasion, as the Spirit leads.

Traill County Tribune OPINION AND REFLECTION
Page 5 • July 25, 2009
Lloyd
Omdahl
former lieutenant governor of North Dakota -
former UND political science professor
Twins to play snowball in 2010
Having played only one season of organized baseball, I am just a whisper in
the shadows compared to the wisdom of Dick Bremer and Bert Blyleven, the
TV newscasters for the Minnesota Twins. Throughout the 2009 season, they
have been touting the virtues of the new open-air baseball field that will be
ready for the 2010 season.
To support their campaign, Dick and Bert have been recruiting endorsements
from such old Twins greats as Kent Hrbek and Jack Morris. They even
have Joe Mauer’s mother insisting that the boys take their game outside. One
of these evenings, I expect to hear a vocal endorsement from Kirby Puckett,
electronically resurrected from some ethereal location, adding his approval to
the outdoor park.
At a cost of $500 million, Target Field will be opened on April 12 with a
game against Boston. Without a doubt, a large portion of the 40,000 seats will
be filled by diehards, all shivering in longer than usual “long johns” in a “more
desirable” atmosphere than found in the Metrodome.
While games in St. Louis, Seattle and other parks will be rained out in 2010,
games in Target Field will be snowed out. (After all, it snowed in Dickinson
just a couple of weeks ago – around the middle of the baseball season.) April
is still winter all the way down to Omaha. They plan to host the World Series
in October of 2014. Unthinkable!
The vendors will be happy because they can throw their coolers away. The
Coors beer cans will be blue without them. Instead of bobbleheads, they will
be giving away pneumonia shots. I imagine the new mascots will be fullyequipped
St. Bernards, ready to rescue the players in the occasional blizzards.
With rain, sleet and snow inevitable, the only folks in the stands over the
long haul will be the mailpersons who have a reputation for thriving in this sort
of environment. But I doubt that there are enough of them in Minnesota to keep
this undertaking out of the bankruptcy courts.
A rational person has to wonder what happened to the common sense that
Dick and Bert normally demonstrate in calling the games. There can be only
one answer. They are banking on earth warming and the promise of a 7-degree
increase in temperature over the next 20 years. The first few years will be
tough, they figure, but after that it will be all sunshine and roses.
Now I have a selfish reason for being negative about this new outdoor arrangement.
At our house, watching Twins games on television is a regular
event. Everything else on television – except the Weather Channel – is really
trash. Regrettably, the Twins sometimes sink to that level.
With the Metrodome, we can count on a Twins game every night. With an
open-air ballpark, games will be disrupted by weather and, on those evenings
when the Twins games get snowed out, we will be stuck with more than we
want to know about the weather in Utah.
Social media
On the Traill...
Melissa Hennen, Executive Director
Traill County Economic
Development Commission
Most of us remember when “social” meant meeting some friends for lunch
or gathering as a group in a special place. These days, the meaning behind the
word “social” has taken a different path. Social media networking sites have
become a gathering place and a playground on a large scale. These Web sites
are a place where our friends, neighbors, relatives, customers and others are
choosing to share information multiple times daily.
Social media sites have names such as Facebook, Twitter and MySpace,
which really are nothing more than brand names. These sites have their differences
but share one common bond, connecting people around the world very
easily. Social media sites provide the opportunity to create and communicate
with people that care.
Let’s start at the beginning using Facebook as our example. To become a
Facebook user, you go to their Web site and sign up using an e-mail address.
The cost is free. From there, you will begin to develop your “Profile” which
is anything you would like to share with your “Friends”. This information can
include your name, hobbies, favorite movies, where you work, etc. None of
this information is required, but it makes your profile more fun (remember, it’s
a playground). Your profile page includes a “Wall” where friends can write to
you. There is also room for you to write what you’re thinking, pass on information
to others and display your photo albums. Once your profile is complete,
you can search for your friends. After finding your friends, family, co-workers,
neighbors, etc. in a search, you ask them to be your friend. Remember, you can
always change your settings to be sure no one, except the friends you allow,
can see your profile. These are the basics of Facebook, making bonds with
people over the Internet in order to communicate in a different way.
So what does this mean for economic development? There are many ways
social media can be useful in promoting a company, product, community or
region. It is becoming a new form of marketing which reaches a new audience,
but also requires a new way of thinking. These sites give people the power to
make comments, interact and be our friends, which results in more loyalty,
positive connections and future results.
A few examples of companies, groups or communities using this form of
marketing include Cooperstown, N.D., which has a group on Facebook with
283 members, Scheels All Sports, has a group with 466 members. One group
that was put together very quickly and boomed is called Fargo-Moorhead
Flood Information, which now has 11,150 members. This just goes to show
that there is a group or “Fan Page” out there for everyone.
We’re ready to bring social media to Traill County, so search for our Fan
Page on Facebook “Traill County Economic Development Commission.”
Come over to our side of the playground and check out what we have to offer.
Goose River
Heritage
by Fran Evanson
In the news this week we heard how NASA actually cannot locate the original
footage of the moon walk 40 years ago. That is where scrapbooking becomes
important. It is a hard copy of memories of days gone by and these
days it is often a work of art. In our fast-paced world I often wonder how
many historical documents and documentation of events will be lost by computer
crashes and the loss of print media like newspapers and magazines.
The Goose River Heritage Center has a number of really interesting scrapbooks
that the local people did in days gone by. One rainy and cold Sunday
afternooon I spent close to three hours poring over the books that had news
clips about people and special events in the area. I especially enjoyed the
books that had news clippings about the 75th and 100th anniversary of the
Mayville and Portland area. What is fascinating is seeing the old photos and
stories relating to all the activities where local talent united to produce plays,
parades with women dressed in original clothing of the pioneers and the unity
of the communities where people shared their heritage and paid tribute to the
original pioneers of the area.
Stop by the Goose River Heritage Center this weekend and help us celebrate
Summerfest by visiting it and enjoy a cup of coffee or lemonade and a treat.
Random Thoughts
… about family dynamics
by Myrna Lyng
In his book “Anna Karenina,” the Russian author Tolstoy famously said, “Happy families are all alike; every
unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.” I guess he was right about that. And I suspect that most people, if they had a choice,
would take their own troubles over someone else’s.
But a couple of weeks ago I was thinking about Tolstoy’s pronouncement in a different way. A bunch of us were together to work
on our son’s, brother’s, friend’s (pick one) townhouse in Apple Valley, Minn. As we worked, quips and comments abounded. Some
were such inside jokes that an outsider would wonder what was so funny about some innocuous-sounding word or turn of phrase.
I think all families have that kind of thing going. The expressions come from experiences that are not unique in and of themselves,
but in the way a particular family played out the scenario. The telling and re-telling become family lore and give future generations
little glimpses into the personalities of people who may only be names to them.
As we were doing our projects in Apple Valley, I was reminded that if there is something to be done, and three people are going to
do it, there will be at least three opinions on ways to do it. (Well, maybe four. The right way is sometimes an option.)
Part of my family history is the time my four brothers gathered to go snowmobiling. Of course, each had a different model. No
surprise there. But when it came time to load up the machines, we all had to laugh because each brother thought he knew the best way
to load up and, of course, suggested that the others do likewise.
In our case, John was building a storage unit to hold sports equipment. He had carefully thought out his plan and had it reviewed
by his sister Karen, who has enough carpentry skills that she could have built the unit herself. John took Karen’s suggestions under
advisement, and did the same with Merwin. I wisely stood aside and said nothing because knowing which end of the nail goes into the
wood is about as much as I know about construction. Oh, and I do know that a 2 x 4 is not 2 x 4. Why, I dunno.
Anyway, I went happily along when we set out to get materials, because spending money is something I do know how to do, and
I am also good about reading labels and stuff. At one point I thought I was in the U. S. House listening to debates on the Ways and
Means Committee, but in the end all minds seemed to agree and we had everything we needed.
I hung around in the townhouse garage during construction, because I am a good “go-fer” and I do know a wrench from a screwdriver.
Furthermore, the moving van had not yet arrived so there were no boxes to open or furniture to dust.
It was interesting to listen to the exchange of ideas and questions, and “how about we try” kinds of things. Parents and kids alike
recognized that the other knew a thing or two and acted accordingly. The result was a well-built storage unit that did the job, and, best
of all, fit the space.
Karen and I volunteered to lay protective plastic covering on the newly cleaned carpets so that when we and the movers tromped
back and forth the floors would stay clean. Imagine unrolling sticky Scotch tape from a roll about two feet wide and getting it in place
on the floor. Seems simple enough, right? Not quite. That dang stuff had a tendency to stick to itself at the edges and getting it unstuck
was a pain. Laughing our heads off didn’t help. We ended up using about twice as much as we should have needed. Ironically, the
movers had their own protective padding and it was the first thing out of the truck. Who knew?
After the moving van left, so did John and Karen, and Merwin and I set to work. He started to assemble a floor lamp and part of it
broke. Oops. While he went off to glue the broken section I was emptying kitchen boxes. I washed a lot of dishes and plastic storage
containers and, as I was drying things, just set them on the counter opposite the sink. The counter had a glass cook top in the middle.
Thinking that nobody was going to be cooking anything, I just piled stuff along the whole area and put things away as I went.
At one point I decided that certain glasses would be better on a bottom shelf but that meant moving some cups to a higher shelf.
To aid in doing this, I grabbed a kitchen chair to stand on. Wrong. A chair leg collapsed and down I went. The glass I was holding hit
the floor but did not break, and, thankfully, neither did I.
Glad that there had been no witnesses, I turned back to the sink to wash more glasses. In a few seconds I smelled something bad,
and when I turned I was horrified to see some of those plastic storage containers melting merrily down to liquid. Evidently I had hit
the “on” button on the burner knob as I was hitting the deck. It worked very well.
Fortunately, so did the kitchen fan. When things cooled down I was able to peel the plastic off the burner and it cleaned up beautifully.
Whew. It was a close call. I had visions of hustling out to buy a new cook top. “I only have to spring for new storage containers,”
I thought.
Hmmm. Maybe not. Merwin got the Elmer’s out again and glued the chair leg, but it might be toast. So my “to do” list now
includes “find chair.” Thank goodness I like to shop.
Sum and Substance
by Dr. Larrie Wanberg, Volunteer Curator, Northwood Museum
Two hundred and three museums are listed in the North Dakota Directory of Museums. I was surprised to learn that there is only
ONE children’s museum noted in the directory – one in Fargo.
Fourteen categories are listed, with 85 in history, 38 historical houses, 30 art museums, 14 parks, and 13 historical society museums,
with the other categories being ten or under in number. One hundred and three towns register their museums in the directory.
Again, only one children’s museum is identified – “The Children’s Museum at Younker Farm at Fargo. Check it out: http://www.
childrensmuseum-yunker.org.
Although most museums have a “children’s corner” or exhibits catering to children’s interests, none are specifically geared for
young children, nor to youth, except perhaps the natural interests of a science museum, a planetarium, or a dinosaur museum.
Of course, the “mother ship” of heritage is the “Heritage Center” in Bismarck – a wonderful place to visit -- but the roots of the
state’s heritage is in the small towns, where history originated over generations, and “live” small town events are happening virtually
every summer weekend that do not necessarily draw visitors to Bismarck. The “Old Fashioned Weekends,” like the one happening
in Northwood this weekend, have great appeal to families and visitors. The Northwood Pioneer Museum will have an open house on
Saturday to see its progress in renewal. Of special interest is the youth film studio dedicated to students capturing pioneer oral/visual
histories of the heritage of the community.
Some conversations were exchanged this past weekend at River Fest in Drayton about an innovative program to increase museum
membership in small towns. Such a program, perhaps labeled with a theme like “Stories Grandparents Told Their Grandchildren,”
could become a modern method of the oral history tradition. The advantage of such an inter-generational theme is that it is a more
engaging means to involve youth in the heritage of their community.
The idea is basically that grandparents (living anywhere) become members of the local museum, and their grandchildren get free
“heritage” passes to visit onsite. In addition, the grandchildren get a user name and a password to go online to view 3-5 minute stories
(like on YouTube) that their grandparents have ideally pre-recorded, with help from a local film crew of high-school age grandchildren.
The grandchildren, in turn, can share their user name and password with their grandparents, if they have access, or can download a
DVD for more traditional viewing.
Users may perhaps choose from a library of stories from other pioneer families from the region. The stories may be interpretive
of museum artifacts posted on a site, or simply tales passed across generations about their community from a kinship of people on a
special museum Web site. This process is now beginning to happen in the restored Northwood Pioneer Museum.
Stories can be viewed or downloaded onto home computers for younger children, or to cell-phone screens for teenagers or students
away for study. Likewise, older citizens may gather about the computer at the Senior Citizen Center to re-live stories of pioneers.
Students at high school may use such interviews in their history or citizenship classes.
The larger purpose, though, is to generate tourism destinations for a network of towns that draw people together in large numbers,
like last week’s all-school reunion and associated family reunions in Drayton. Digital cameras were everywhere, including videographers
from distant places to record the stories being told by individuals, families and organizations, while the community-produced
play, “Bound for Blessing,” was being enacted on stage at the high school. The 42-member cast and local producers put on four performances
that filled the auditorium. Nearly 1300 tickets were sold. With digital recordings, encores of the event can be re-running
anywhere, anytime.
Talk was heard during this past weekend of creating an annual documentary film festival for short video films, especially in a youth
category that can grow a heritage library online. I heard comparisons made to a “Netflick-style-approach,” where short video films can
be downloaded for viewing as an extension of both the area museum and library. Families could forward the links to such films in their
email networks, -- like large media organizations (CNN) use social networks, including MySpace, Facebook and Twitter, to promote
hometown involvement.
Renewed talk about a “Digital Arts Center” in or near Drayton is being considered for grant possibilities, which grew out of a recent
InnovateND proposal. The current focus is to develop a weekend film school for families to produce a five-minute documentary of their
family-heritage story as part of a community storybuilding program.
“Film Camps” are available, as one for high school students is going on this week at UND. A similar filmmaking camp for teachers
is happening this week in Hollywood. Digital storytelling workshops are offered frequently in Denver and Internationally.
If a network of small-town museums across the state were linked together with a shared vision to use media arts to target the popular
heritage tourism market, what a difference this could make in revenues in city coffers. The N.D. Department of Tourism states that
every dollar invested in tourism returns seven dollars into the community. Not a bad investment in today’s economy.
Sounds like a good deal to me, especially when youth become the driving force in new media applications and seasoned citizens
become the community story-builders.

Rediscover the quiet delight of letters
In the ‘60s, a lot of people “turned
on and tuned out.” Today, we’re so tuned
in, we are “Wi Fi-ed” and “GPS’d” 24-7.
Armed with cell phones, Blackberries, iPods,
satellite radio and instant messaging,
etc., many of us have never been more
connected or so overwhelmed.
In the steadily growing chaos we call
life - with its never-ending meteor shower
of information, commentary and noise -
more and more people are rediscovering
the quiet delight of sending and receiving
cards and letters.
Letters help make moments special.
Joys are recorded, shared and savored.
Problems fade, or at least gain perspective,
when they are written down and
shared with family or friends by mail.
When you sit down to write a friend, you
are never alone.
Taking the time to write a letters says
so much to the recipient. Pausing to think
about your friend or loved one, to revisit
your memories and experiences, and to
put those thoughts and emotions on paper
bring these feelings to life for you as
well as the recipient. And when flowers
have wilted, chocolates have turned to
unwanted pounds, IMs and e-mails have
been deleted, and phone conversations
have been forgotten, letters of live and
messages of comfort and consolations remain,
to be read and appreciated over and
over again.
Unplug. Turn off. Slow down for
a moment or two. Take off the headset.
Recognized that sound? It’s called “silence.”
Kind of nice, huh? Savor the moment.
Then share it, with your feelings,
with a friend or loved one. Write them a
letter. Show them you care in a personal,
lasting way. Write a letter today!

Portland
Looking Back
by Dustin Olson
1933
Portland experienced a near-calamity
Saturday afternoon when a gasoline explosion
occurred in front of the Portland
Garage. One of the truck tanks from
the Farmers Union Oil Co. was unloading
gasoline, the hose being in the pipe
leading to the underground tank. In some
manner, the hose was partly released so
the gasoline flowed over the edge of the
pipe. Willard Edberg, who was standing
over the pipe, struck a match to light a
cigarette and the fumes were ignited,
causing a terrible explosion. Edberg
suffered burns on his hand and leg. The
cloud of black smoke could be seen from
as far away as Hatton.
1961
Only the shell was left standing after
fire consumed the interior of the Tom Mehus
residence Tuesday evening. Personal
belongings in the house and two puppies
were lost in the blaze. The fire was believed
to have been started by a spark
from a wood-burning range.
1983
The Portland Merchants women’s
slow-pitch softball team won the Class
A division of the league playoffs held at

In my life there have been moments where I have thrown a wrench in my own plans. I have had diarrhea of the
mouth and spoken without thinking, I’ve ignored my intuition and I have completely skated by on chance. It is for
this reason that reflection actually means something to me.
A small epiphany this past week got me thinking even more. I realized, while sitting in my room in North Dakota
miles away from the home I made in Holmen, Wisc., that a lot of times people surprise you.
Sadly, the school I graduated from has had a lot of bad luck with deaths of students. Ever since the graduating
class of 2003, Holmen has seen a student pass either prior to or shortly after their high school graduation. Some
graduating classes have seen more passings than others, but only one has seen none...and that is the year I graduated,
2007.
Call it luck, call it karma, call it coincidence, and you can even call me crazy, but when this is a lingering wellknown
fact floating around in your brain it comes up in your everyday life every once in a while. A morbid, “Who’s
next,” or “Please, not my friends,” or even a “not me,” sits on the tip of your tongue at times. It sounds like ridiculous
paranoia, but 2007 graduates of Holmen High School understand what I mean.
Bringing my point back to reflection, I was on Facebook late Monday night and lo and behold, Holmen’s curse
is going steady; another student died. However, this one hit even closer to home with me because it was my best
friend’s cousin. Instantly I started digging to find out what happened: the how and why and everything I could pry
out of anyone.
It was at this moment that some fellow graduates of mine made me appreciate being raised in Holmen. I could
not get hold of Brittany to see how she was doing and so I stayed on Facebook doing more research, frantically typing
in our hometown newspaper to produce more facts, and then one after another I had about four fellow graduates
start talking to me. All of us were in a panicked state, as we know what it means for Holmen to scribble another
name on that godforsaken list. We conversed about the who/what/where/when/whys and slowly drifted into “normal”
conversation that consisted of “where have you been,” “what have you been up to,” etc.
This is where the epiphany comes in. When you’re in high school, as a senior, you sort of come to a point in your
final year when you come to terms with the fact that some of the people you talk to regularly you may not know
in 3 years, or the best of friendships you have built can easily deteriorate with time and the bullies you can’t stand
have the chance of being more successful than you.
In casual conversation with these fellow alumni, I began reflecting. Talking was easy and topics came out
smoothly with not a single awkward silence in all of our conversations.
In high school, I maybe wasn’t the coolest girl there and I maybe wasn’t the geekiest, I maybe didn’t wear all the
right clothes, and I maybe didn’t do all the right activities, but I meant something. Despite all the things I know I
did wrong, I must have done something right to be talking to what feels like strangers now, completely naturally.
In any walk of life, we can feel small or insignificant like just another little bee in the hive, but a lot of times
we don’t give ourselves enough credit. In small communities like Holmen and Mayville, almost everyone knows
everyone. Sometimes it can be more of a curse than a blessing, but when bad things happen, we draw together and
become a team, morphing, naturally, into supporters, friends and superheroes.
When you feel small or you feel distant it’s nice to know that you matter.
A donation will be taken at the
door. All who attend will have an opportunity
to win a purse filled with
$50.00 worth of treasures. The drawing
will be held at approximately
6:30 p.m.

University News

President, Mayville State University
Facilities projects are a highlight of summer campus activity
This summer is particularly busy around the Mayville State University campus.
Facilities projects are at the forefront of much of the activity. There are changes
every day, as large and small projects progress. The campus has undertaken three
major capital projects: the coal power house project, Agassiz Hall renovation project,
and the Science-Library renovation and Education Division addition. These
projects are in various stages of development.
The coal power house project, located on the west end of campus, began early
in June with the clearing of the building site. The project is progressing nicely. The
building footings and floor are poured, and boilers and other equipment have arrived
and are being set in place. The building will be constructed by October, and
the plant is scheduled to be operational by November. The use of coal to heat the
campus will definitely stabilize our heating utility budget.
An important initial phase in the Agassiz Hall renovation and Science-Library
renovation and Education addition projects was completed recently when the campus
selected architectural firms to design these projects. Michael J. Burns Architects,
Ltd., Moorhead, Minn., will lead the development and oversee the construction
activities for the Agassiz Hall renovation project. Construction is planned to
begin early in 2010, and will be in progress for about one year. JLG Architects,
Fargo, N.D., will provide the architectural services and oversee the construction on
the Science-Library renovation and Education addition project. Construction activities
will begin next spring and continue into the summer of 2011.
A number of other projects are being planned or are underway around campus,
as well. Many campus sidewalks were replaced last summer. This year we have
replaced the sidewalk to the hallway entrance located on the east side of campus
between the Campus Center and the Classroom Building. A sidewalk that will run
from the football stadium gate up the hill to the football concession stand is also
planned.
The restroom facility located in the athletic stadium complex is being replaced
with a larger and more functional building. A number of restrooms in Old Main,
Campus Center, and the fieldhouse will receive facelifts and new fixtures. A dozen
water fountains will be upgraded to stainless steel ADA-compliant water fountains.
We will continue to improve the appearance of campus classrooms by painting,
carpeting, lowering ceilings, and updating lighting as time and dollars allow.
The exterior doors and windows in the Classroom Building and the exterior
windows in the Berg Hall conference room are to be replaced in September and
October, and the chiller and control system to provide air conditioning and humidification
to Classroom Building classrooms, offices, and auditorium will become
operational this fall.
We are currently considering other projects, including installing a liner in the
Campus Center swimming pool, improving campus exterior lighting, and updating
the present surveillance system. All campus improvements are being made with the
safety and comfort of our students, faculty, staff and visitors in mind.
Please feel free to come to the campus and see the many changes as they unfold.
Baldwin recognized for outstanding
skills in national competition
John Baldwin of the MPCG FC-
CLA Chapter recently participated in
STAR Events (Students Taking Action
with Recognition) at Family, Career
and Community Leaders of America’s
(FCCLA) 2009 National Leadership
Conference.
John Baldwin, who is a freshman
at MPCG High School, Mayville, N.D.
and is the son of Kurry and Delia Baldwin,
received a gold medal in the Life
Planning Event, one of 22 national
STAR Events available to FCCLA
students. A gold metal is the highest
of three medals awarded to STAR participants.
His medal was presented at
a recognition session honoring all participants
at the Gaylord Opryland Convention
Center on Thursday, July 16.
More than 5,300 members, advisers,
alumni, and guests from across the nation
attended the meeting. There were
87 students and adults representing
North Dakota. Nearly 3,000 students
advanced from the local, regional, and
state level of STAR Events to the national
meeting.
Mrs. Faye Duncan, MPCG Chapter
Advisor, served as one of four teachers
from North Dakota who served as
Assistant Lead Consultants for specific
STAR Events. FCCLA’s STAR Events
are based on the belief that every student

Controlling rose disease
Humid moist weather favors the
development of two common rose
diseases, powdery mildew and blackspot.
Powdery mildew prefers cool
humid weather while blackspot develops
under warm wet conditions.
One of the most serious rose diseases
is blackspot. As its name indicates
the symptoms are irregular
black spots on the leaves up to a ¼
inch in size and occasionally larger.
Shortly after the spots develop the
affected leaf turns yellow and falls
off. This can cause a premature loss
of many leaves. Sanitation is the first
step in control. Rake up and destroy
all diseases and fallen leaves in the
fall. If the disease has produced purple
spots on the canes, they should
be pruned out and destroyed. If and
when blackspot symptoms appear,
begin spraying with a fungicide and
continue every 7 to 14 days as needed.
Fungicides are available at local
garden centers.
Powdery mildew is another disease
frequently encountered during
cool moist weather or in shady areas.
The leaves, buds and stems become
covered with a powdery white coating.
The young leaves curl and become
distorted and badly infected
flower buds fail to open. Again, sanitation
is important. Remove and destroy
all infected leaves and flowers.
You should spray your roses with a
fungicide, beginning when the buds
first open and repeat every 10-14

days as long as necessary. Fungicides
are available locally.
Another problem, but not a disease
of roses, is iron chlorosis. Symptoms
to look for are leaves which turn yellow
with veins remaining green in
color. This condition is caused by a
deficiency of iron in the rose plant’s
nutrition. Our soil, which is very alkaline,
ties up the iron in the soil, making
it unavailable to the plant. Iron
chlorosis can be treated by spraying
iron chelate on the roses or by applying
it to the soil. Spraying iron on the
leaves is a very short-term solution.

Farm leader urges producers to sign
up for Livestock Indemnity Program
A Livestock Indemnity Program
(LIP) offered through USDA will
“take the edge off one of the worst
winters and springs North Dakota
ranchers have had to endure,” said
North Dakota Farmers Union President
Robert Carlson.
Sign up for the new program began
July 13. “Some estimates suggest
North Dakota ranchers may have had
nearly 100,000 cattle die this past
year due to severe winter snowstorms
and the subsequent spring flooding,”
said Carlson. “This program will help
offset the financial setbacks of ranchers
who suffered unusually high losses
this past winter and spring.”
The LIP is administered by US-
DA’s Farm Service Agency. “Along
with the Supplemental Revenue Assistance
(SURE) program, LIP is a
significant program within the 2008
Farm Bill. We can be grateful that our
North Dakota farmers and ranchers
lobbied Congress to fund these programs.
I urge livestock producers to
immediately contact their local FSA
office to determine whether their livestock
losses this past year may qualify
them for this program,” said Carlson.
He noted livestock owners have until
Sept. 13, 2009, to file a notice of loss
for livestock deaths incurred in 2008
through July 12, 2009.
Prairie Fare: Plan ahead for
calorie splurges at fairs
By: Julie Garden-Robinson,
Food and Nutrition Specialist
“I shouldn’t eat this, but I can’t
resist!”
“I’ve really ruined my diet now.
Oh well, I’ll take seconds.”
“I’ll start eating healthier on Monday.”
Have you ever heard, or maybe
said, these things?
We’re in the prime season for
food-inspired guilt. Fairs, carnivals,
festivals and all sorts of fun events
are in full swing at this time of the
year. Foods, such as funnel cakes,
deep-fried “just about anything” on
a stick and deep-fried breaded cheese
curds, entice us with their aroma, texture
and flavor.
Here’s the good news: We all have
room for some discretionary calories,
which are the treats in our diet. Discretionary
calories include foods such
as cookies, brownies, soft drinks and
tempting fair foods.
Discretionary calories are like
discretionary dollars because they
are available to “spend” as we please.
Like discretionary dollars, most of
us don’t have as many discretionary
calories available as we would like.
Here’s the somewhat bad news:
Most of us get 100 to 300 discretionary
calories per day, not per meal.
You can find out your allotment of
discretionary calories, along with
your recommendations for a nutrientrich
eating plan, by visiting www.
mypyramid.gov.
As you enjoy portable treats, you
might argue that you are burning off
all the extra calories as you walk.
Yes, walking is an excellent form of
exercise. However, to burn the excess
calories, you may need to walk more
than you planned.
To burn the calories in one fried
candy bar on a stick, plan to walk 4.5
miles. Add another 4.5 miles to your
trek with an order of cheese fries.
If you drink a 32-ounce regular soft
drink, you will need to walk an additional
2.5 miles. Add a cotton candy
and you can add another 1.5 miles.
To get some fruit, how about adding
a caramel apple? They must be
healthy because they’re apples, right?
To burn the calories in one caramel
apple, you would need to walk three
miles.
Quite soon, you’re well on your
way to walking a marathon. You also
might need an antacid.
You can enjoy some fair food, in
moderation, with these tips:

by eating lighter during
the day. Go heavy on whole-grains,
fruits, vegetables and other fiber-rich,
filling foods during the day.
• Curb your appetite with a bowl
of soup or a serving of whole-grain

New energy economics: potential impacts
of cap and trade on N.D. corn production
By Cole Gustafson, Biofuels Economist
NDSU Extension Service
I recently spent an afternoon with
the leadership of the North Dakota
Corn Growers Association trying to
discern the impact of pending federal
cap and trade legislation. It is quite
likely that corn is the one commodity
that will be the most affected because
of ties to fertilizer, livestock production
and biofuels. At this stage, it is
very difficult to forecast if these effects
will be positive or negative
because many of the programmatic
details have not been finalized. In essence,
cap and trade provides both
opportunities and risks, depending on
how the legislation is implemented.
Opportunities:
Providing carbon offsets – Corn
production is among the most energyintensive
crops to raise. Consequently,
it has great opportunity to provide
carbon offsets to other sectors facing
carbon caps. However, corn growers
have a concern. Rising yields, which
are expected to top 300 bushels per
acre, create substantial field residue.
At present, carbon offsets are available
only for shifts to reduced or notill
systems. Minimum tillage may
not be a viable option in cool northern
climates as yields increase.
Increased demand for biofuels –
Chad Kyllo 701-371-5315
Dale Kraling 701-371-9627
Randy Kyllo 701-866-9865
(Sales) Shane Kyllo 701-866-9864
Authorized
Dealers
Firms under carbon regulation can
meet their imposed cap by utilizing
biofuels that meet Environmental
Protection Agency guidelines for lowering
greenhouse gas emissions. This
would be a tremendous new demand
for corn-based biofuels. However, in
initially proposed rules, the EPA did
not consider the carbon footprint of
corn ethanol to qualify, but the U.S.
House version of the climate bill directs
the EPA to accept corn ethanol.
Energy Saving Technology – The
U.S. government expects that rising
energy prices will stimulate increased
development of energy-saving technology.
Given that corn production
utilizes considerable energy for fieldwork,
fertilizer, irrigation and drying,
lower energy costs would increase
the crop’s competitiveness with other
production alternatives.
Yield Growth – The carbon footprint
of corn production is highly
dependent on yields. If new technology
raises corn yields, the carbon
footprint for each bushel produced
will fall dramatically. It is unknown
if farmers or seed companies will be
able to reap the benefit and sell carbon
offsets.
Risks:
Increased fertilizer costs – Early
on, the EPA stated that its priorities
were energy generation, transportation
and agriculture. However, the
EPA has stated that agriculture would
be exempt from having a cap imposed.
However, it is not clear if that
applies to agribusinesses, especially
fertilizer. If fertilizer emissions become
regulated, costs of producing
corn would escalate directly. Even
more concerning is that corn would
be at a comparative disadvantage
with other crops due to its high fertility
needs.
Higher livestock production costs
– Similar to fertilizer, emissions from
large, concentrated livestock units
also are of great concern to the EPA
but were not included in the U.S.
House version. If livestock were regulated,
it would diminish profitability
and demand for feed.
Rising energy costs – Under cap
and trade, economists forecast that
energy prices will increase significantly.
This would raise production
costs for energy-intensive crops such
as corn.
Unequal international implementation
– A major concern following
the Kyoto round of negotiations was
the lack of participation among trade
competitors, especially China. If major
corn export competitors failed
to apply similar regulations to their
fertilizer and chemical industries,
foreign corn producers would have a
significant cost advantage.

Section 3 Legion Tournament kicks off in Mayville
by dave dakken
Regular-season play is over for 2009
Section 3 Legion baseball. Therefore,
it is tournament time and the standings
and seedings are set.
Although Casselton and the Fargo
Bombers had identical 13-1 league
records, Casselton earned the number
one seed on tie-breaking criteria. The
standings, records and seeding for the
tournament are as follows:
#1 Casselton: 13-1 and 29-7 overall
#2 Fargo Bombers: 13-1 and 34-6
#3 Hope-Finley: 8-6 and 20-13
#4 MayPort: 6-8 and 21-28
#5 Thompson: 5-9 and 12-19
#6 Hatton: 5-9 and 16-15
#7 Central Valley Blue Sox: 4-10 and
6-20
#8 Gardner Express: 2-12 and 5-23
In the first round the Fargo Bombers
defeated Central Valley-Hillsboro
17-7. Casselton beat the Gardner Express
23-4. Hatton bested Hope-Finley
3-2 in 10 innings. MayPort outlasted
Thompson 8-6.
The match-ups for round two on
July 23 were: Central Valley-Hillsboro
Blue Sox versus Hope-Finley and
Gardner versus Thompson. Both those
games are losers-out in the doubleelimination
setup. Then, the Fargo
Bombers played Hatton and Casselton
went against MayPort in the winners
bracket.
Hatton advances in Section 3 tournament
The Hatton Junior Legion team,
with a record of five wins and nine
losses, entered the Section 3 legion
baseball tournament on July 22 in
Mayville, N.D., as the number six seed,
but in first-round action they prevailed
over number three seeded Hope-Finley,
with an 8-6 record, by the score of
3-2 in ten innings..
Hatton scored a run in the third on
an RBI double by Ben Strand and plated
another lone run in the fourth on an
RBI by Andrew Workin.
Tyler Bilden was on the mound for
Hatton, and he was in complete control
of the Hope-Finley bats. Entering the
bottom of the seventh, however, only
three outs from a shutout victory and
having having given up just two hits
so far, Hope-Finley’s Zak Bergstrom
singled to start the inning. Bilden then
walked Vince Kubishta, which was
his third base-on-balls of the game. A
fielding error followed that scored a
run, and an RBI base hit by Eric Parkman
tied the game. Fortunately, Hattton
got out of the inning on a double
play.
Bilden contnued pitching until the
bottom of the ninth. His team had regained
the lead in the top of the frame
when Ryan Pladson started the inning
with a triple and was later driven in on
a hit by Matt Hillesland.
So, with a 3-2 lead entering the
bottom of the ninth, Bilden was replaced
on the mound by Andew Workin.
Three Hope-Finley fly ball-outs to
the outfield, one a nice diving catch by
Eric Dafforn in center field, ended the
game.
Bilden pitched a great game, scattering
four hits, allowing one earned
run with five strike-outs and three
walks, but Workin got the victory.
Hatton moved into the second
round to face the Fargo Bombers the
following day. The Bombers, seeded
number two, defeated number seven
seed Central Valley-Hillsboro 17-7 in
round one.

May-Port takes #4 seed into Section
3 tournament and defeats #5 Thompson
The May-Port Legion baseball
team finished Section 3 play with a 6-8
record, which earned them the number
four seed in the Section 3 Legion baseball
tournament. Thompson, with a 5-9
record, was the number five seed when
they met in Mayville on July 22.
During the regular season, the two
teams split counter-games with May-
Port winning 9-7 and Thompson winning
12-11.
Not quite that many runs were
scored in their first round match-up
in the Section 3 tournament, but May-
Port did their damage early with a
big first and second inning to defeat
PHOTO BY KRISTIN ANDERSON / TRIBUNE
Hatton’s Spencer Huss gets a hit against Hope-Finley.
Thompson 8-6.
Mason Tangen started on the mound
for May-Port and had some rough going
in the first inning. Although he finished
the inning with three strike outs,
he walked the first batter he faced, Garret
Reineke, and that cost him when he
subsequently let fly a wild pitch that
Reineke, who had moved to third on an
error, scored on. The batter at the time,
Ricky Morgan, then singled to score a
second run. But, Tangen struck out the
next batter to stop the bloodshed and
end the inning.
If Tangen had a rough start, then
Thompson’s starter Connor Weber had
a nightmare first inning. When his bottom
half of the first was over, he had a
passed-ball, an error by his third baseman,
two walks, two wild pitches and
he hit a batter. When the damage was
over, May-Port led 4-2 on one hit!
In the second inning, Tangen
walked a batter and gave up a double
to Reineke, but got out of the inning
without giving up a run on a double
play by Ben Agnes at first base.
Weber, on the other hand, had another
rocky inning that knocked him
off he mound. Ethan Kyllo started
May-Port off with a single in the bottom
of the second. He stole second
and advanced to third on the same
play when the throw got away from
the player covering the bag. Chase Elliott
grounded out to third and Adam
Fyre went out on a great play made
by Thompson’s catcher Marcus Bergstrom.
He caught Fyre’s foul ball behind
the plate while crashing sideways
into the cement wall, maybe breaking
his nose.
At that point, with two out, it looked
like Weber might get off the hook, but
Tyler Ust drilled an RBI single, and
Ben Agnes followed with a single.
Chase Elliott then drew a walk. Consequently,
Ricky Morgan was brought in
to relieve Weber with two outs and the
bases loaded. The first batter he faced,
May-Port’s catcher Jacob Papenfuss,
ripped a single into left to drive in two
more runs. After two innings May-Port
led 7-2.
The third inning was the first quiet
inning. Thompson sent four batters to
the plate and May-Port went out 1-2-
3.
One swing of the bat gave Thompson
two runs in the top of the fourth.
There was no doubt when Reineke
connected that the ball was going over
the left field fence. Weber, now playing
right field, had walked to lead off
the inning, so Reineke’s blast made the
score 7-4.
Ben Agnes regained one of those
runs in the bottom of the fourth, though,
when his double to left-center scored
Fyre who had reached on an error, so
May-Port still had a four-run cushion
with three innings left.
Neither team produced runs in
the fifth and sixth innings. May-Port
threatened with two outs and two runners
on in both innings, but nobody
crossed the plate. Tangen had two nice
innings, getting Thompson to fly out
three times in the fifth and twice in the
sixth. He added another strike-out to
end the sixth, which was a very crucial
out because, had that batter reached
base, Reineke would have been at the
plate with two on.
May-Port had to hang on in the
seventh, as Thompson made a final
run. Reineke led off with a walk. May-
Port wasn’t going to give him anything
juicy to swing at. But, Reineke hustled
all the way to third on a single by Jarad
Syrstad and scored on a sacrifice fly by
Brandon Weber. Bergstrom came up
and reached on throwing error.
So, with one run already across
the plate and needing two more to tie,
Thompson had runners on first and
third with one out.
Tangen bore down and was able to
strike Morgan out, but Nick Nybo singled
to bring in another run. With two
out and runners on first and second, a
ground ball to shortstop Tyler Ust, who
flipped it to Ingebretson at second,
gave May-Port a first round victory!
Miscues hurt both teams, but they
cost Thompson more, as May-Port
took advantage.
Tangen pitched a nice ball game,
Adam Fyre gets a catch in center field.
going the distance. He gave up six hits
and just three of Thompson’s six runs
were earned. He walked six but struck
out seven. Connor Weber was the loser,
yet the young man never quit.
Reineke had a great day at the
plate for Thompson. He walked twice,
then crashed a home run and a double
for two RBIs and three runs scored.
Syrstad, Brandon Weber, Morgan and
Nybo all had a base hit, with Weber,
Morgan and Nybo all driving in a run.
May-Port punched out 10 hits with
three hitters all going 2x3 - Ust, Agnes
and Papenfuss. Ust and Agnes
also scored twice and drove in a run,
and Papenfuss led the team with three
RBIs. Ethan Kyllo was 2x4 with a run
scored, and Ingebretson scored once
and Fyre twice. Christian Berry was
1x3 with an RBI.
The win sent May-Port into the second
round on July 23 to face a powerful
#1 seed Casselton team that had 17
hits, including three home runs to defeat
Gardner 23-4 in their first game.

The May-Port Legion baseball team finished their Section 3 baseball schedule
on July 15, but they still hosted four more games to complete their 2009 schedule.
They split a doubleheader with Grafton, N.D., on July 17 and lost two games
to the Nelson County Owls from Minnesota on July 19.
Both games with Grafton had lopsided scores and ended early on the 10-run
rule. Grafton won game one in five innings, 19-7. May-Port won the second
game in just three innings by an 11-1 score.
Grafton jumped on May-Port quickly with six runs in the first inning of game
one. May-Port closed the gap to 6-4 with two runs in both the first and second
innings. However, Grafton continued to pour it on with three runs in the third and
nine in the fourth.
Starting pitcher for May-Port, Chase Elliott, took the loss.
The home team had nine hits. Adam Fyre had three of them in four plate appearances,
including a home run and a double. He also scored twice and drove in
three runs. Nick Rygg went 2x2, while Jace Ingebretson, Jacob Papenfuss, Ben
Agnes and Christian Berry all had a hit.
Nick Rygg took the mound to start the second game, and he earned the victory.
At the plate, Rygg had a double and drove in three runs. Isaac Nepstad
doubled and scored once. Fyre had a triple, an RBI and scored once. Ryan Ust
was 1x1 with a run and an RBI, and Mason Tangen was 1x2 with an RBI.
Obviously, May-Port had the quick start in this one with five runs in the first
inning. In all, May-Port had 11 hits and 11 runs in three innings.

May-Port Legion ends
regular season play
Tyler Ust gave up 11 runs and eight hits to the Nelson County Owls in the
first game loss on July 19, but they weren’t all earned, as May-Port committed
five errors. Ust didn’t have any run support, either. The final score was 11-0, with
the home team producing just five hits. Mason Tangen had two of the hits, while
Ethan Kyllo, Adam Fyre and Ust each had a single.
Still, the score was only 3-0 entering the top of the fifth, but the Owls took
flight with eight runs in that frame.
May-Port only lost by two runs in the second game, but they added three more
errors, left seven runners on base, and their bats were very quiet. Just three hits
were claimed off two Owls pitchers.
Those getting hits for the home team were Adam Fyre, Ben Agnes and Alex
Berry. Berry’s was a double. Ethan Kyllo scored a run and had an RBI. Both Tyler
Ust and Nick Rygg had an RBI also. Jace Ingebretson was the losing pitcher
of the 6-4 final score.
May-Port finished their 2009 season with a 20-28 overall record. They were
6-8 in Section 3 play, and they entered the Section 3 tournament that began on
July 22 in Mayville as the number four seed.

Red Caps play final home game
By Kristin Anderson
The Mayville Red Caps neared the
end of the season, playing four games
in the past week.
On Saturday, July 18, they traveled
to Valley City to take on the Saints,
ending in a 8-5 victory in 10 innings
for the Red Caps.
Valley City was up 5-2 after four
innings, but Mayville tied things up in
the seventh inning. They took control
in the top on the 10th as Ben Strand
singled to begin the inning. Eric Dafforn
and Christian Berry also singled,
followed by an RBI-single by Mitch
Bryer and a two-RBI single by Todd
Kligel to put the Red Caps in the lead.
Mitch Bryer began at the mound
for the Red Caps, going four innings
and giving up five runs. Mickey Berry
got the win, pitching the final six innings.
Offensively, Kligel went 4-5 and
Mickey Berry was 2-4.
The next day was a different story
for the Red Caps, who faced the Jamestown
Merchants in their final home
game of the season. Filling a roster
has been a struggle for Mayville all
year, but despite having all their players
there, Jamestown dominated the
doubleheader, picking up 13-0 and 22-3 wins. “We had all our guys there and we couldn’t do anything right, and they (Jamestown) couldn’t do anything wrong,”
Red Caps coach and player Matt Chandler said. “It was just one of those days.”
Things turned around on Wednesday, July 22 against the F-M Miners, though.
The Red Caps were down 5-2 until the eighth inning, but key hits down the stretch, and a six-run eighth inning resulted in Mayville coming away with an 8-5
victory.
Mike Hessenius got the win on the mound. Scott Mullenkamp got the save.
At the plate, Alex Berry led Mayville, going 4-5 with two RBIs.
The Red Caps finish the regular season on Wednesday, July 29 against the

Pronghorn season set
A long, harsh winter followed by
two major snowstorms in late March
and a cold, wet spring means fewer
pronghorn licenses available for this
fall’s hunting season compared to last
year.
A total of 2,361 licenses are available
for 2009, down 49 percent from
4,631 licenses in 2008. The total consists
of 1,531 any-pronghorn licenses
and 830 doe/fawn licenses.
“We had a long winter with snowfall
occurring in mid-November and
staying through mid-April,” said
Bruce Stillings, big game biologist
for the North Dakota Game and Fish
Department, Dickinson. “Significant
snowfall of approximately 75-100
inches fell across the majority of the
pronghorn range, and at least three
freezing rain events occurred creating
a crusty layer on the surface of
the snow.”
Included were two major snowstorms
in late March, when 36 inches
of snow fell in the extreme southwestern
corner of the state. “These
late snowstorms included temperatures
near zero, which are extremely
hard on already weakened animals,”
Stillings said. “In addition, a snow/
rainstorm occurred in the western
part of the state on June 6. Newborn
fawns would have been a few days to
two weeks of age and very vulnerable
to hypothermia.”
Game and Fish biologists surveyed
more than 16,000 square miles,
90 percent of the primary range for
pronghorn in the state, in late June
and early July. Statistics indicate the
statewide population decreased 27
percent from last year, from an estimate
of 14,000 pronghorn to 10,000
this year.
The survey also indicated the
buck-to-doe ratio remains stable at
35 bucks per 100 does. However, the
fawn-to-doe ratio was 49 fawns per
100 does, the lowest ever documented
in North Dakota.
Aerial surveys indicate a healthy
pronghorn population in the northwestern
corner of the state, and in the
Washburn area. Therefore, hunting
units 1D and 9C are expanded to include
these areas.
Online applications will be available
the week of July 20 at the Game
and Fish Department website, gf.nd.
gov. Paper applications will also be
available from Game and Fish offices,
county auditors and license vendors,
or by calling (800) 406-6409.
The deadline for submitting applications
is Wednesday, Aug. 5. Mailed
applications must be postmarked
before midnight. Hand-delivered applications
are due at the department’s
Bismarck office by 5 p.m. Applications
should be mailed early because
some post offices use the following
day’s postmark if received after office
hours.
Only North Dakota residents are
eligible for pronghorn gun licenses.
Archery season is open to residents
and nonresidents. Gun season dates
are Oct. 2 (noon) – Oct. 18. Pronghorn
bow season runs Sept. 4 (noon)
– Oct. 4.
Game and fish monitors waters for
ANS

North Dakota Game and Fish Department
fisheries personnel will continue
to monitor waters throughout
the state this summer for aquatic nuisance
species. Lynn Schlueter, ANS
coordinator, said efforts will focus on
waters with a history of high use.
“Much of our time will be centered
on favorite destinations of
out-of-state anglers,” Schlueter said.
“However if time allows we will
survey secondary water bodies, including
large wetlands often used as
a source of fathead minnows by bait
vendors.”
During a recent inspection of water
areas north of Valley City, a fisheries
crew found a few curly leaf pondweed
plants in Lake Ashtabula. “This
does not come as a total surprise since
curly leaf was found in the Sheyenne
River downstream in recent years,”
Schlueter said. “Even though only a
few plants were found, it takes only
one tiny fragment to grow into a plant
and infest another water body.”
Schlueter said identifying ANS
infestations is the first step in preventing
their spread. “Prevention is
much easier and cheaper than dealing
with another infestation,” he added.
“An infestation can eventually ruin
angling and impair recreational boating
opportunities.”
Anglers and other water recreationists
are reminded that ANS can
be transported from lake-to-lake by
boats, trailers and other recreational
equipment.
Detailed ANS information and
prevention regulations can be found
in the 2008-10 North Dakota Fishing
Guide, or by accessing the Game and
Fish Department Web site at gf.nd.

Fur harvester class scheduled in
Bismarck
The North Dakota Cooperative
Fur Harvester Education program is
sponsoring a fur harvester education
class in Bismarck for anyone interested
in trapping or hunting furbearers.
The free 16-hour course is set for
Aug. 11 (5:30-9:30 p.m.), 13 (5:30-
9:30 p.m.) and 15 (8 a.m.-5 p.m.) at
the Game and Fish Department in

During the two evening sessions
students will learn about traps, trapping
and snaring techniques, furbearer
biology and fur care. Aug. 15
is a field day during which students
will make a variety of land, water and
snare sets.
Upon completion, graduates are
issued a certification card that is recognized
by any state requiring trapper
education prior to purchasing a
license.
Anyone interested in signing up
for the class should access the Game
and Fish Department Web site at
gf.nd.gov, click on the online services
link, and “online course enrollment”
under the hunter education heading.

Summer basketball camps a
success at Mayville State
The 2009 summer girls’ basketball camps held at Mayville State University
were a tremendous success again this year. The camps, which are run by the
women’s basketball coaching staff and players, had over 500 girls on campus
this summer from states including North Dakota, Minnesota, South Dakota and
Nebraska.
The women’s basketball team held an overnight skills camp June 18-22 for
grades seven through 12 and they had 75 campers attend. They also held a camp
on June 22 and had 20 teams attend the camp. The team camps are a chance for
teams from around the state to play games.
“We really like the fact that area players get to play some games on our floor
in the Lewy Lee Fieldhouse,” said women’s basketball coach Dennis Hutter.
There were local teams from around the area as well as teams from western
North Dakota and Minnesota. The women also held position camps the week
of July 13-18. July 13-15 was the post camp, and there were 25 campers who
attended. July 15-17 was their shooting camp, and they had 35 campers attend
that camp.
“This is a great opportunity for us to bring young basketball recruits to Mayville
State so they can see the campus,” Hutter said.
The Comets also held another team camp on July 18 and had 14 teams compete
for the day. Earlier in the summer, the Comets held the first annual Comets
Coaches Clinic, where they had close to 70 coaches from around the region
come to Mayville State to hear various coaches speak. The Comets would like
to thank everyone who helped make the camps and clinics a big success this

Grand opening for new state historic site
The State Historical Society of
North Dakota’s (SHSND) newest
state historic site will celebrate its
grand opening Friday, July 31 and
Saturday, August 1 with a ribbon cutting
held Friday at 11 a.m., followed
by programs and events through Saturday.
Located on the front lines of
the Cold War, the Ronald Reagan
Minuteman Missile State Historic
Site near Cooperstown preserves and
interprets the story of the Minuteman
missile system as well as the people
working in and living around the missile
sites.
The State Historical Board,
which oversees the operations of the
SHSND, will hold its summer meeting
at the site July 31, beginning at 1
p.m., to mark the grand opening.
The Friends of Oscar-Zero and
the Griggs County Historical Society
have been working closely with the
State Historical Society in planning
the site’s development and grand
opening.
Events planned for the grand
opening include tours of the Oscar-
Zero MAF and the November-33
LF, as well as the Cold War exhibit
at the Griggs CountyMuseum. Military
equipment will be on display
both days at the Griggs County Fairgrounds.
Registration for special
tours, meals, and events runs from
9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday and Saturday
at the Griggs County Museum,
and a shuttle bus will be available to
transport visitors from the museum to
the new historic site both days of the
grand opening. A buffet dinner will
be served Friday night, with speakers,
special guests, and music by the
North Dakota Army National Guard
Band. The speakers will include
SHSND Director Merl Paaverud,
State Historical Board President Albert
Berger, State Historical Board
Vice President Chester E. Nelson, Jr.,
Colonel Charles Simpson, Director
of the National Air Force Missileers
Association, Colonel Parks, former
missileer, and Philip Parnell, former
missileer and commander of Oscar-
Zero. A picnic lunch, model airplane
fly-in, games, and music from local
groups highlight Saturday’s events.
Pre-registration for grand opening
events is encouraged, especially for
the Friday evening dinner. For more
information or to register, contact
Becky Meidinger of the Cooperstown-Griggs
County Economic Development
Council at cooperedc@invisimax.com
or call (701) 797-3712.
The site opened its doors to the
public July 13. It is managed by the
state’s history agency, the State Historical
Society of North Dakota. The
most contemporary of the state historic
sites managed by the SHSND,
the Minuteman Missile Site was operational
until 1997, when it was deactivated
by the U.S. Air Force as a
condition of the 1991 Strategic Arms
Reduction (START) Treaty.
The site is named after Reagan as
a result of legislation approved by the
2007 Legislative Assembly to honor
latest/from front
The older concrete bridge is worn
out, said Boone. “It’s in pretty bad
shape. It’s an antique.”
“We’ve got a lot of them,” added
District 1 commissioner Tom Eblen
from Hillsboro. Still, the section line
road is on the mail and school bus
routes, the argument was made.
While the placement of new pipes
would take the pressure of the immediate
area near the bridge, where the
flooding is occurring, downstream
flooding is a concern for the commissioners.
County Road 5, for instance,
is always threatened by high water.
The often-used east-west CR5 connects
southwest Traill with Hope in
Steele County and is directly south
of Bridge 408. The decaying bridge,
however, is not scheduled for replacement.
Reminding the Tuesday morning
crowd that the county has up to 400
bridges, “the most of any county in
the state,” Osland nevertheless requested
Lande to run some figures on
a pipe replacement solution. Lande

the 40th president’s role in ending the
Cold War.
The state historic site actually
consists of two sites – the Oscar-Zero
Missile Alert Facility (MAF) and the
nearby November-33 Launch Facility
(LF). Oscar-Zero is located about
four miles north of Cooperstown on
N.D. Highway 45, and November-33
is two miles east of Cooperstown on
N.D. Highway 200. The sites are
about six miles apart. Oscar-Zero is
also located about 70 miles northwest
of Fargo. Oscar-Zero and November-33
are the military designation
names of these facilities.
“As we move further and further
from the era, preserving these sites
representing our rich Cold War history
takes on a new sense of urgency,”
said SHSND Director Merl Paaverud.
“If missiles had been launched from
these sites out here on the Plains, the
world would have been changed forever.”
The site supervisor is Mark Sundlov,
a former Air Force missile officer
who managed the State Historical
Society’s Fort Buford site before
beginning his new job June 1. After
graduating from the U.S. Air Force
Academy in Colorado with a bachelor
of science degree in history, Sundlov
served as an Air Force officer at
Minot Air Force Base from 1999 to
2003.
The Cold War began in 1945 as a
post-World War II confrontation between
the United States and the Soviet
Union over many issues, most
importantly the shape of the post-war
world. A massive arms race ensued,
although the two superpowers never
fought each other directly because of
the potential of nuclear weapons to
destroy both nations. It ended with
the collapse of the Soviet Union in
1991.
Constructed as part of the Grand
Forks Air Force Base’s 321st Missile
Wing, Oscar-Zero and November-33
were completed in 1965, with Minuteman
II missiles installed shortly
after completion. The sites were
modified in the 1970s to accommodate
Minuteman III missiles. For
nearly 30 years these two missile facilities
were on continuous alert. The
Strategic Arms Reduction (START)
Treaty in 1991 between the Soviet
Union and the United States limited
the number of strategic weapons on
both sides, eventually resulting in the
closing of the 321st Wing at Grand
Forks and the removal of all Minuteman
missiles from the base. Other
MAFs and LFs were dynamited or
filled, leaving the Oscar-Zero MAF
and November-33 LF to be preserved
by the U.S. Air Force. The SHSND
took control of the facilities in December
2007.
A missile field, with 150 Minuteman
III intercontinental ballistic
missiles, is still operating in North
Dakota, based out of the Minot Air
Force Base.
Visitors to Oscar-Zero are given a
guided tour of topside facilities and
said he would also “try to find some
money.”
Sheriff Mike Crocker advised
the commission of the possibility of
money available through FEMA’s
hazard mitigation fund. Used culverts
were also suggested as a replacement
for the decaying bridge. Snagging and
clearing money might also be used to
clear the river bottom of sediment.
The river channel needs work, everyone
familiar with the Elm River in
Galesburg Township agreed. Again,
a problem solved with money. “But
the finances aren’t there,” pointed
out Arne Osland. However, problems
with water moving across a flat
landscape, along rivers and streams,
through bridges built a century ago,
continue to surface.
For the Traill County Commission,
which isn’t in the drainage business,
a fact often pointed out by the
commissioners, the resurfacing water
problems are a continuing quandary
often mired in impasse.

will learn how the facility managers,
security forces, maintenance teams,
and cooks lived their daily lives at the
MAF. Guests may also choose to be
guided down the elevator shaft to the
underground Launch Control Equipment
Building and LaunchControl
Center, where they will see first-hand
the front lines of the United States’
strategy of nuclear deterrence. They
will be able to step behind the concrete
blast door and witness the environment
that was experienced by the
missile crews.
At November-33 visitors will see
the topside of a launch facility, including
the massive launch closure
door which once protected a missile,
an imposing security fence, the electronic
security system, and the ventilation
systems that served the underground
equipment buildings. The
topside appears exactly as it did during
its existence as an active launch
facility before it was closed in 1997.
The Ronald Reagan Minuteman
Missile State Historic Site is open
daily from May 16 through September
15, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. From
September 16 through October 31, it
will be open Mondays and Thursdays-
Saturdays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., and
Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m., closed
Tuesdays and Wednesdays. From
November 1 through February 28,
it will be open by appointment only.
And from March 1 through May 15,
it will again be open Mondays and
Thursdays-Saturdays from 10 a.m. to
6 p.m., and Sundays from 1 to 5 p.m.,
closed Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
Admission to the Oscar-Zero Missile
Alert Facility is $10 per adult,
ages 16 and over, $3 per child, ages
6-15, and children 5 and under are
admitted free. School groups are $1
per student, with chaperones and bus
drivers admitted free. A season pass
is $30 per family, and $15 per individual.
Tour bus rates are $2 a person
for groups of 20 people or more; or
$40 for groups of less than 20 people.
There is free admission for members
of The Friends of Oscar-Zero and
members of the State Historical Society
of North Dakota (SHSND) Foundation.
There is no charge to visit the
November-33 Launch Facility, which
is available for viewing year-round.
Free admission to all sites administered
by the State Historical Society
of North Dakota (SHSND) is one of
the many benefits for members of the

Mayville/from front
Roger Fenstad of Moore Engineering
briefed the council on several projects
on which his firm is working. Construction
is underway on the pumping
station at the north edge of the city,
the Traill Rural Water treated water
reservoir and the raw water pipeline
to Mayville.
A $7.9 million earmark for Phase
III was added by Sen. Dorgan to the
Energy and Water Appropriations Bill
and has passed the Senate, according
to Fenstad. It is believed that it will be
approved by Congress in the federal
budget.
TRW has received funding to build
a 200,000-gallon treated water storage
reservoir tactility as part of phases
I and II of the regional waters system.
Based on this additional water storage,
the engineers have reached the
conclusion that additional storage at
Mayville is not necessary.
The city still needs to find the
funds for converting Mayville’s water
treatment plant to the nano filtration.
Fenstad told the council that he was
hoping to get partial funding (grant
plus loan) through a Rural Development
and the remainder through Municipal,
Rural and Industrial Funds.
Using percentages, he believed a 45
percent grant along with 30 percent
from Municipal, Rural and Industrial
Funds and the remaining 25 percent
would be a loan from Rural Development.
The city would have to finance
the loan amount temporarily and then
would be paid back by Rural Development.
Application to Rural Development
for funding will be made
immediately through the engineering

North Dakota
Horse Park
goes green
The North Dakota Horse Park is
going green…with green John Deere
tractors that is! The North Dakota
Horse Park is proud to announce
their new partnership with RDO
Equipment Co. of Fargo, N.D. Each
summer, the North Dakota Horse
Park uses large tractors to prepare the
Horse Park grounds for the arrival
of the 400-500 horses that arrive for
the 7-week race meet. “Safety of our
racing surface is paramount and we
rely upon our tractors to get the track
into shape for the horses,” said General
Manager Heather Benson. RDO
Equipment Co. will supply the Horse
Park with three tractors that will be
used to condition and level the track
racing surface between races as well
as maintain the Horse Park grounds
during the week.
The partnership between RDO
Equipment Co. and the North Dakota
Horse Park was a natural one,
according to Heather Benson. “John
Deere is the corporate sponsor of our
Challenge Stakes in August so RDO
Equipment Co. seemed like the perfect
fit. They (John Deere) are probably
one the biggest supporters of
not just the racing industry, but the
horse industry as a whole and we are
thrilled to have RDO on board at the
Horse Park!” The corporate arm of
John Deere is a major national sponsor
of both the American Quarter
Horse Association Challenge races
as well as the Breeder’s Cup Championships
for Thoroughbreds in the
fall as well as many other equine
competitions. RDO Equipment Co.
General Manager Steve Connelly
stated that “Working with the Horse
Park is a great opportunity for us to
show our dedication to the community
of equine development, along
with giving us the chance to showcase
the premier line of John Deere
equipment.”
The North Dakota Horse Park
opens for live racing on July 24th and
their brand-new green John Deere
tractors will be standing by to have
the track ready for fast horses to
speed to the finish wire!

firm. The funding application requires
a public meeting be held for residents
to ask questions or make comment.
Such a meeting has been scheduled
for Tuesday, July 28, at city hall at
5:30.
The council approved payment of
a bill for $1,930 to Traill Rural Water
District.
The city received payment of
$14,900 from Traill Rural Water District
for the purchase of the city’s
north shed. The deed signing is all
that remains to transfer the property
to the TRW District, according to City
Attorney Brett Brudvik.
City Auditor Gary Winger informed
the council and department
heads that he was beginning to prepare
the 2010 budget and requests should
be made in writing to his office soon.
One item mentioned was replacement
of the police department’s Chevy Impala
with a new vehicle.
Spraying for mosquitoes will be
done as needed, according to Byron
Kleven, public works director. The
street department has been mowing,
patching streets and will be painting
when conditions permit. All bid work
at the armory has been done and final
tin is being applied. A facilities renter
had expressed his satisfaction with
the facility and indicated he would
recommend it to others for their functions.
Permit applications included one
from the Top Hat for off-sale at the
firemen’s dance and another from
Mayville State University to hold parades
on Sept. 26 and Oct. 10. Both
were approved by the council.

Traill County Tribune
By Sarah Sorvaag
Sun rays glisten on the edge of the
canoe as your oar tenderly stirs the water
with each stroke. The gentle breeze
wafts the scent of hotdogs grilling at
the nearby campgrounds. When you
reach the docking area and disembark
the vessel, the grass along the water’s
bank reveals a weed-less place for you
to sit and watch the sun slowly dip below
the horizon.
Traill County residents have several
locations in the region where they
can go to enjoy outdoor activities. A
few areas include: the Larimore Dam,
Red Willow Resort, Brewer Lake, and
Golden Lake Resort. Some of these
water-based vacation spots are arranged
mostly for family fun and fullday
adventures. Others offer a welcoming
atmosphere for people in need of
relaxation and low-key activities. The
following information will likely help
guide anyone who plans to visit any of
these locations for a brief trip.
Brewer Lake
How far are you willing to travel
for peace and quiet, and possibly some
fishing? Brewer Lake, 11 miles southeast
of Galesburg, is a great spot to do
just that. The lake offers bluegill, large
mouth bass, and small mouth bass.
Some fishermen choose to bring
their own boats to the lake, while others
prefer to set up their equipment on the
pier. Either way, the laid-back scenery
will be satisfying for almost any visitor.
Golden Lake Resort
If rocking out and having fun in
the sun is your idea of a good time,
check out the Golden Lake Resort in
Hatton. The lake spans approximately
500 acres. Golden Lake Resort owner
Jeff Ringstad explained that there are
many options for entertainment when it
comes to the small town lake.
“We’ve got camping locations for
tents and RV trailers. There are seasonal
spots, weekly, and temporary ones also
available. Golden Lake is a great place
Come on in, the water’s fine
Area resorts and campgrounds provide ample summer fun
for water sports like jet skiing. There
are trails for biking and motorcycling
too,” he said.
Ringstad stated that the resort staff
have worked hard in recent years to
bring a variety of activities to the area.
gins at 9:00 p.m.,” Ringstad said.
In case you were wondering, Boom-
Town is a Fargo-based band that plays
a variety of country and rock ‘n’ roll
tunes. If you’re an, Eagles, George
Strait or Johnny Cash fan, this is a concert
you won’t want to miss.
The resort restaurant serves a great
assortment of fish dinners such as walleye,
catfish, and salmon. The chef’s
specialties also include Mexican food,
and unique appetizers, among other delectable
meals.
Besides camping, attending concerts,
and enjoying the local cuisine,
visitors can also take walks along the
sandy beach or go for a swim. Ringstad
stated that the fishing is welcoming for
people of all skill levels.
“There’s a little bit of everything in
this lake. There’s perch, walleye, northern,
and small mouth bass. A couple of
years ago, someone caught a bass that
was only a few ounces off the state record,”
he said.
“I think if you’re looking for fun,
we’ve got a nice beach and a great
family atmosphere at the Golden Lake
Resort. We’ve got room for you,” Ringstad
added.
Larimore Dam Recreation Area and
Campground
Another great spot for camping
enthusiasts to try this summer is the
Larimore Dam. The camping season
generally lasts from May 1 to October
1, depending on the weather conditions
each year. The camping area includes
144 overnight camp sites with water
and electric hookups. There are 84 sites
with sewer hookups. Rest rooms with
flush toilets and showers are available,
making the idea of camping a little more
realistic for those who prefer staying in
hotels. At the campground main office,
“On Saturday, July 25 there will be you can connect to high speed internet.

areas: Location A is Brewer Lake, Erie; Site B is Golden Lake Resort, Hatton;
Location C is the Larimore Dam, Larimore; and Site D is Red Willow
Resort, Binford.
PHOTO BY SARAH SORVAAG / THE TRIBUNE
Red Willow Lake is a very scenic place for visitors to relax and enjoy the
sight of sunsets during the summer.
The Larimore Dam Recreation
Area is a great place to set up a picnic.
The two covered picnic areas can be
reserved, so don’t be surprised if you
witness a family reunion taking advantage
of the beautiful scenery and warm
weather occasionally.
For the kids, there’s a softball diamond,
playgrounds, and volleyball net
for public use. There are paved and
natural hiking trails for families to experience.
Remember to bring your bike
too. There are three-and-a-half miles
of paved bike trails for visitors to trek.
The Larimore Golf Course is nearby,
featuring nine holes.
For the historians and nature enthusiasts,
there are 500 varieties of trees
and shrubs worth seeing through the
Maya Arboretum.
Red Willow Resort
Located northwest of Cooperstown,
the Red Willow Resort presents yet another
camping site for area residents to
use this summer. The resort rests in a
heavily wooded area. Campers can set
up tents and there is enough room for
24 RV stations with electricity hookups.
Showers and vaulted bathrooms
offer visitors a fantastic place to clean
up for meals at the resort’s full-service
restaurant. There’s never a dull moment
at this spring-fed fishing lake. There are
weekly dances in the pavilion and occasionally
roller skating.
No matter what kind of camping experience
you’re looking for, these local
sites provide small town fun and some
of the most beautiful scenery eastern
North Dakota has to offer. If you prefer
day-trips, take advantage of the family-oriented
activities offered at any of
these locations.
Area residents prepare for a weekend of fun at WE Fest
By Sarah Sorvaag
Area residents who enjoy a good
time, great music, and a weekend of
fun in the sun will likely have a blast
at this year’s WE Fest. This year’s
schedule is packed with well-known
musicians and local talent for all to
enjoy.
Chyrll Sparks, FACE, Inc. (Festivals
and Concert Events), is one of
three coordinators who oversees the
marketing operations for WE Fest.
She personally appreciates the country
music gathering for its exciting
and community-based atmosphere.
This year’s event will include
the newly purchased largest touring
stage in North America. According to
Sparks, it arrived in 15 semis.
“We will now be able to handle
any show on the road, no matter how
many lights and video screens they
have. We will also be able to do a lot
of other shows because we no longer
have rent, set up and take down a
stage roof,” she said.
Sparks’ greatly enjoys seeing the

crowd’s excitement as nationally recognized
artists rock out in at the Soo
Pass Ranch, Detroit Lakes.
“We hope everyone has the time
of their life. It’s been a tough year
economically for a lot of people,
and the fact that they chose to spend
their hard-earned money on WE Fest
means we owe them the best show
ever,” Sparks stated.
We Fest is not only focused on
the concerts in August, but the organization
also supports area charities
throughout the region, such as the
Minnesota Food Bank Network, the
American Cancer Society, and The
Lakes Crisis Center. FACE, Inc. also
donates money to area public schools
for the purchase of band instruments.
“We feel like the fans are our
friends and neighbors, and we continually
strive to make the WE Fest
something the community can be
proud of. We couldn’t do it without
the support of the fans that come year
after year, and we want everyone to
know how much we appreciate their
support,” Sparks explained.
“If you haven’t tried it, come for
one day and see the great bands on our
big new stage. We are selling reserved
lawn seats for one day, so you can sit
back and see Joey and Rory, Craig
Morgan, Taylor Swift and Brooks and
Dunn for the price of seeing any other
concert. Give it A try because WE
Fest is your festival too,” she added.
