I hope people will re-aquaint themselves with the green dot waking trail around town.
New signs have been post on untility post. Exercise is valuable for phisical and mental health.
The Roughriders 4-H club posted signs and repainted the green dots and smilie faces (: ) on Saturday marking the Green-dot walking trail. The cost of the paint and signs will be shared by Horizons and a grant from Northern Plains RC&D.
The Rolette block party was a great success. People attended despite the rain. Lots of GRATE FOOD and Conversation.
The games were fun for all ages: tug-o-war, turtle races, minnow races and the Merry-Mixer (you had a sheet of paper with events that you had to get people to sign who had done the events). The kids all received a back-pack. The National Guard lead some games.
Reconnecting with your neighbors and learning about other peoples interests and goals is a good thing.

Rolette is going forward with plans to introduce Cash 101, a game to educate youth on money management, to schools and youth clubs.
“People in Rolette also feel that the real benefit from the whole Horizons process was the Leadership Plenty,” Jo Gilje of the Rolette Horizons Committee said. “Leadership Plenty really helped us out in working as a community.”
The leadership training program promoted community consensus rather than letting a few people make decisions and do the work, she said.

There was a ribbon cutting event at the future home of the Rolette Care Center.
