One stop for fun
Hundreds of kids found fun in'the 1-Stop Mar-
ket’s parking lot last week. The business offered V
free bouncy games during a customer apprecia-
tion event.
The North Dakota Industrial
Commission recently approved two
new Bank of North Dakota (BND)
loan programs to help the state’s live—
stock producers cover expenses re-
lated to the extreme drought
conditions in the state. Producers
must work with their local lender to
determine if the programs are appro-
priate for their situation and make ap-
plication through. them.
The Livestock Drought Loan Pro-
gram will cover ag-related costs in-
curred as a ‘result of' the 2021
drought. Applications will be ac-
cepted through June 30, 2022. Loans
are made for up to a five-year term at
a fixed interest rate of 3.50%. Pro-
ceeds may be used for items such as
production or purchase of feed; trans-
portation of feed or livestock; ob-
taining water for livestock to include
drilling a well, piping or hauling; for-
age and seed costs; cover crops;
silaging costs or insecticide costs.
The Livestock Rebuilder Loan
Program is designed to strengthen the
livestock industry post-drought by
providing a financing program to
help livestock producers who had to
reduce the size of their herd due to
lack of feed supply. This program has
an extended application deadline of
June 30, 2023 and provides funds for
Peace Garden
holding exhibit
The International Peace Garden is
excited to welcome a new Garden art
exhibit from local Boissevain artist
Don Engbrecht that includes 12
unique metal sculptures. .
Each piece of this collection is
unique and leans heavily into the nat-
ural world and agricultural imagery
— a fitting tribute, as the majority of
iron used is from retired farm equip—
ment. The collection is currently on
display and is expected to be available
for at least a year. Visitors to the gar-
dens will be able to view these pieces
of art at their leisure in an outdoor
gallery flanked by Garden spaces.
Don Engbrecht is a longtime resi-
dent of Boissevain, MB. Now retired,
Engbrecht spent his professional life
working in the agricultural sector.
From the late 1990’s until 2016, he
and his wife, Betty, created and de-
veloped Anchorage Gardens by con-
verting their farmyard into a tourist
destination. Although the continued
expansion of Anchorage Gardens
ceased due to Betty’s dementia
symptoms worsening, Engbrecht’s
love 'of creating metal sculptures has
not.
Engbrecht is no stranger to the
Peace Garden, it’s a place he has vis-
ited throughout his life. He is proud
to have contributed somethinglposi-
tive to a space that he values greatly.
CEO Tim Chapman remarked,
“Art and nature have long been inex-
tricably connected to creativity, in—
spiration and healing. We are thrilled
to welcome Don’s sculptures to the
Garden and help him continue to
share his art with others.”

producers to purchase and rebuild
breeding stock. This ensures that pro-
duces have adequate time to assess
the situation and create their business
plan torebuild their herds. The loan
is available for up to a seven—year
term at a fixed interest rate of 3.50%.
“This is a pivotal time for the live-
stock industry in North Dakota. It is
crucial that we shore up resources
that allow livestock producers to suc-
cessfully navigate the drought,” the
Industrial Commission said in a joint
statement. “These Bank of North
Dakota programs are one of several
avenues being used to relieve the fi-
nancial stress they are experiencj
ing ”
stakeholders including trade associa-
tions, livestock producers, bankers
and state agencies to determine needs
before developing the programs.

Calling all teen writers: Write
across America this summer
Just because school is out for the
summer, that doesn’t mean your cre-
ative journey needs to be put on pause.
This August, embark on a writing
tour of America with the
#TeensWriteAcrossAmerica
Marathon (TWAAM)! Hosted by
teen writers for teen writers, this
writing marathon will take you
around the country as you meet with
peers in a judgment-free virtual space
to explore your creativity. Join us to
cultivate a writer’s eye, ear, and mind
while writing and sharing writing in
a supportive community of writers.
The Writing Marathon will meet
every Wednesday from August 4,
2021 , to September 8, 2021, for 90-
minute sessions (8:00—9:30 pm ET).
This marathon is open to all teen
r writers. Whether you’re experienced
or just starting out, we want to hear
from you!
Each week, young writers will be
inspired by a new virtual host loca—
tion. A peer will lead the group in
writing and sharing exercises. Writ—
ers celebrate each other at the end of
each session by sharing their favorite
lines. No criticism is offered, just a
simple “Thank you for sharing.”
For our last session, we will invite
young writers to bring one piece of
writing from any of their marathon
stops for feedback and revision! Our
talented host writers will help you
polish it up to enter the 2022
Scholastic Art & Writing Awards.
