Report of events/activities for 2025 –

Kelly: wants to set up a farm stand (small) sell eggs, cut flowers. Would be the honor system for purchases. She would build and maintain the stand. Approved, for her to have the stand out by Larsmont Road in front of the Schoolhouse. Needs advertising, road signs (have in storeroom). This could grow into a larger event as time goes on. Future: possible craft group/s, other farm/food group/s, we will start small for now.

Matt reported on guest speakers ideas: Gabe Sweet is willing to come back and speak on minerals/geology. John Hinkle, Knife River, builds boats as they did hundreds of years ago. He is willing to speak on his work, projects, hand carving. Musicians possible.

Todd Lindahl, some historical story of our area. Doug Hill, grandson of one of the Crusader II boat builders, will be here to work on the boat, June-August. Contact him for historical data of the Hill family. Speaker dates to be set soon.

Possible: Games Night, suggestion – to have some structure, rules, around the game/s. Maybe focus on one game, not a variety.
