Thank you to all who are cleaning up our community and county from the storm.  The trimming, removal and planting of trees certainly changes the appearance of \u201cwhat was\u201d prior to said storm. Where beautiful hundred-year old trees were, the appearance will be different, however there will be a \u201cnew beauty\u201d afforded us.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crazy Days will be celebrated July 30th in Valley City from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. \u2026\u2026. Fun for all, enjoy!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to all our city employees for going the \u201cextra mile\u201d trying to keep up with regular work responsibilities along with hauling trees, cleaning streets, tracking emergency declaration requirements and the like. As of last week, over two million pounds of trees and branches have been accepted at the Transfer Station and deliveries continue. WOW!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Related to the previous bullet, root balls are accepted at the Transfer Station for burning though please shake as much dirt off as possible for better burning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time of the year, big numbers of bikers and kids on scooters, many of which are \u201celectric assisted\u201d, are on streets, sidewalks and alleys. Please, all of you and vehicle drivers, look out for one another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jeff Boschee from Valley City is rated the #30 most noted North Dakota Athlete by Sports Illustrated. He was the state\u2019s first McDonald\u2019s high school All-American and played collegiately at the University of Kansas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is budget season for North Dakota Cities so our city department heads and finance departments are busy figuring out how to best balance Valley City\u2019s 2026 budget. Thank you for your great efforts everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Might you have family or friends you haven\u2019t seen or visited for a while? How about calling, emailing or texting one or two of them now? It could \u201cmake the day\u201d for both of you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

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