Jamestown (CSi) The James River Family YMCA becomes James River Family Fitness, effective September 1, 2014.<\/p>\n

The organization’s board of directors voted recently to disaffiliate from the National Council of YMCAs.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday\u2019s Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, Frank Conlin said the organization’s group-fitness and program offerings for children, families and seniors, will be unchanged, from offerings at the Y.<\/p>\n

The organization will remain family-focused, and financial assistance will continue to be available to those who cannot afford to pay full membership fees.<\/p>\n

The YMCA has rented the Larson Center from the University of Jametown since the building was constructed in 1980.<\/p>\n

The university has hired a consultant to conduct a study of its athletic facilities that will include the addition of a new arena and potential renovation of the Larson Center as well as additional outdoor practice space for football, soccer, baseball and softball.<\/p>\n

Conlin pointed out that with plans being developed over the past few years for a new Two Rivers Activity Center, (TRAC), an affiliation has been planned involving Jamestown Public Schools, Jamestown Parks and Recreation, Jamestown Tennis, and Jamestown Gymnastics, along with the James River Family Fitness Center.<\/p>\n

The Fitness Center\u2019s staff would become employees of Jamestown Parks and Recreation.<\/p>\n

The planned facility would be located at the 7.5-8-acres of land north of Gussner Elementary School, in Northeast Jamestown, that was previously used for JPS 9th<\/sup> grade football.<\/p>\n

TRAC would include an aquatic center with an indoor water park and outdoor water features.<\/p>\n

The center would include space for the child care facility currently operated by the James River Family YMCA in the Larson Center, an indoor playground, an indoor turfed surface facility and an indoor fieldhouse that would have multiple-use courts and a running track.<\/p>\n

Conlin added that possible funding for the Two Rivers Activity Center, could come in part from a \u00be cent City Sales tax, that is presently being used toward paying off the costs of Jamestown High School, which was approved by voters in the early 2000\u2019s.<\/p>\n

Conlin says the high school portion of the City Sales Tax will expire at the end of 2014. At that time, if approved by voters, the \u00be cent City Sales Tax portion would go toward funding the TRAC facility. The two would not over lap.<\/p>\n

He said it\u2019s possible that a vote by Jamestown residents could come in a Jamestown Special Election in either January of February of 2015.<\/p>\n

As a reminder, Conlin pointed out that the facility\u2019s extended hours resume starting on Tuesday September 2, 2014.<\/p>\n

M-F open 5-a.m., till 10-p.m.<\/p>\n

Saturday\u2019s 5-a.m., to 7-p.m.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s 1-p.m., to 7-p.m.<\/p>\n

Sign up is being taken for the Fall I Session, with brochures available at the front desk. The phone number stays the same at 701-253-4101.<\/p>\n

Offerings include: Battle Ropes, Zumba-with various levels, Water Aerobics, Yoga, and a new dance\/exercise class.<\/p>\n

The new web address is : www.JrFamilyFit.org<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) – A man accused in a triple murder on Montana’s Crow Indian Reservation is due in court Wednesday for a mental health competency hearing.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Twenty-five-year-old Sheldon Bernard Chase has been ordered to appear via video conference from the U.S. Medical Center for Federal Prisoners in Springfield, Missouri. Also ordered to appear was prison psychologist Dr. Elizabeth Tyner.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Authorities say in October 2011 Chase took a rifle from his mother’s house in North Dakota and travelled to the Crow reservation, where he shot his grandmother, cousin and the cousin’s boyfriend.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 If U.S. District Judge Susan Watters upholds an earlier determination that Chase is incompetent to stand trial, he’ll go through a civil commitment process that could send him to an institution for the rest of his life.

\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 FARGO, N.D. (AP) – No one was hurt in an early morning fire at an apartment building in Fargo.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Fire Department says the blaze was reported about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, and all occupants were safety evacuated.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Officials say there was structural damage in two apartment units and smoke damage in two others. The total damage was estimated at about $225,000.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The cause of the first was not immediately determined.

\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – The Bismarck Civic Center might be getting a new name – the Bismarck Event Center.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The Bismarck Tribune reports that the City Commission has approved seeking offers for a second marquee and also has accepted the concept of renaming the building that’s undergoing a $27 million expansion. A decision on a new name is not final.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Commissioners agree with Civic Center Manager Charlie Jeske (JEHS’-kee) that the “civic center” name might indicate limited options, and they want to convey that the complex can host many events including conventions and concerts.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Jeske will draft a new marketing plan for the expanded facility and present it to the commission for approval.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota and a port in the state of Washington have signed an agreement that will increase the shipments of ag commodities from North Dakota to the West Coast.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring says the agreement signed Wednesday with Port of Vancouver USA located in Vancouver, Washington, will provide a major opportunity to commodity handlers, particularly small and mid-sized companies, to access rail facilities on the same basis as larger companies.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Goehring says boxcars that carry supplies to North Dakota’s oil industry currently return to the port empty. Under the agreement, the boxcars will head back west filled with wheat, corn, soybeans and other crops.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The boxcars would then be offloaded and put into ships that can transport the North Dakota commodities to Asia and Latin America.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n

\u00a0ANGLETON, Texas (AP) – A Texas man says he hopes to move forward with his life, now that he’s been acquitted of murder. David Barajas had been accused of shooting to death a drunken driver who had just caused an accident that killed Barajas’ two sons. Authorities said that after the crash, Barajas went to his home about 100 yards away, got a gun and returned to shoot the other man. But there was little physical evidence tying him to the killing. And legal experts had said prosecutors would have to overcome jury sympathy for a man whose two sons had died.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Police say a crew member from the TV show “Cops” who was killed last night as police disrupted a robbery at a fast-food restaurant in Nebraska was struck by police gunfire. They say officers also shot and killed the robbery suspect, who was carrying a pellet gun. Police officials in Omaha say the suspect fled the restaurant after being shot inside the restaurant, and that officers continued shooting at him — and that’s when the TV crew member was also struck. He’s identified as Bryce Dion, who worked for Langley Productions.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 PHILADELPHIA (AP) – Philadelphia police say the killings of two men whose bodies were found bound and weighted down with a makeshift anchor in a city river were drug-related. They say they’re investigating a possible gang connection to the two killings and the critical wounding of a third man. Police say all three men had been abducted together, contradicting an early account of what happened.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NOVOAZOVSK, Ukraine (AP) – Separatist forces in Ukraine who are backed by Russia have captured new territory Wednesday, far from the sites of their previous battles with Ukrainian government troops. The separatists today pushed westward along Ukraine’s strategic coastline — raising the prospect that they are trying to create a land link between Russia and Crimea — which Russia annexed in March.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 NEW YORK (AP) – It’s a third all-time high in a row for the S&P 500, which gained just a tenth of a point Wednesday, to again finish a fraction above the 2,000 mark. The Dow gained 15 points, while the Nasdaq edged down a point. Trading was quiet ahead of the Labor Day holiday weekend, with many investors away on vacation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
