It is feeling like spring, YES! Golf courses are opening, kids are out playing and will soon be involved with a plethora of activities offered by our Valley City Parks and Recreation Department. To research available programs for the children and adults in your family, please see: https:\/\/www.vcparks.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The spring season also brings \u201cconstruction\u201d so please respect signage and the speed zones for your safety. Many accidents in construction zones result in injuries and deaths to the vehicle drivers. Be safe, it only takes a few more minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week\u2019s trivia is Brad Gjermundson who is noted by Sports Illustrated as North Dakota\u2019s 12th Greatest Sports Figure from years 1900 to 2000. Brad was Four-time world champion saddle bronc rider (1981, ’83, \u201984 & \u201985) and qualified for the National Finals Rodeo nine times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you seeing loose styrofoam, papers, plastics cups and the like around your garbage container after pickup? A way to stop it is to put said items in a grocery bag type container and tie so it all carries into the truck. Give it a try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

April is \u201cAlcohol Awareness Month\u201d. It\u2019s an opportunity for all to update knowledge about alcohol use disorder (AUD) and the adverse impact of alcohol misuse on health and society. Alcohol-related problems continue to take a heavy toll on individuals, families, and communities. Feel free to check it out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Clean-up Week is scheduled for May 19-23 with the Transfer Station being open all week. Please be respectful of directions in the following link and call if you have questions.  https:\/\/www.valleycity.us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Clean-up-week-2025.pdf<\/a> Thank you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sue and I are grateful for a small family gathering at our home Easter Sunday. We celebrated Jesus\u2019 resurrection from the dead, great food and quite a bit of \u201cbonding\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to all who provide and proof material for this column.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

           \u201cStop seeking out the storms and enjoy more fully the sunlight.<\/em>\u201d      <\/strong>~ Gordon B. Hinckley<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
