Hello
all...one of the riders contacted me with a really good idea that we
are going to try this year.
If there are
any of you that have a business that you would like to promote,we are
going to be adding business cards to the welcome packages.
If you want to
send me 125 business cards I will see that they get added to the
registration packages...a great way to network!!
Please send
them to:

I
remember the days in elementary school, we would get our packages of
pictures including a large quanity of small ones and rush home to get
them cut apart. The next day as school, we would trade
pictures. Most of us would try not to give away too many without
getting one in return. To this day, I have a drawer full of old
pictures that include those small, pictures of my young friends that I
do not even remember the names of. Good thing, many include the
names scribbled on the back. With some of them, that does not
even help jog the memory of who they are.
Anyway,
This was the thought that came to my mind when Tami suggested that we
try to get the gals that attend the North Dakota Ladies Run this year
to bring business cards with them to pass out, or trade. This way we
can remember who we have met and how to get a hold of them after the
gathering. In the past our choice has been to just wait till the
next Ladies Run.
So, this it the request, if you have access to the computer, it is
fairly easy to produce your own business
cards. Maybe some of you have cards made already. If
you can, please bring about 130
of them for trading with the other attendees.
Thanks, Cindy and Tami

Dam and Lake are located on the South Branch of the Park River two
miles west of the city of Park River, N.D., on Highway 17. At this beautiful 200-acre lake you

Park Board operates a park, Homme Lake/Swimming Area near the dam that
provides facilities for boat

has a new “beach” swimming area near the dam itself. A bike/walk
path has been constructed from the west side of Park River to
the Spring Overflow at Spillway Homme Dam Recreation.

but no water. Twelve sites have water and electrical hookups.

a day. $20 per day for electricity and water. New restrooms and showers
have been added. Generally the camping sites are available on a

The
Archives Page was constructed with the help of Tami
Henninger,
from Bismarck. At her suggestion,
we have added many other pages such as, the In Memory Page,
the Women owned Business Page,
the Her
Story Page, to name a few.
Tami has provided a wealth of information for most of the pages found
here, not to mention her uncanny ability to proof my writing and find
my miserable spelling errors. A Big Thanks goes out to Tami.
If you would like to see something added to these pages, please
contact her or me. And please stop by her personal web site to check
out some of the great stuff she has posted. TQOFE
