Stanley, ND

While in the local beauty salon, I was visiting with Kori and her mom. By accident, her mom told me about the generosity of her daughter. Kori also works at a local convenience store and was given a gift certificate to Food Pride. Kori, being a kind and caring person, gave the food pantry her gift certificate. Kori explained humbly that she realized that others needed the groceries more than her. When asked what she would have bought with that gift certificate, she then replied probably just pop and candy. She laughed and said good night. I was very impressed with the high school student. She is Karing Kori.

STANLEY ALONG WITH OTHER SMALL NORTHWEST TOWNS IN NORTH DAKOTA WERE FEATURED ON BOTH COASTS. THE OIL ACTIVITY IS INCREASING AROUND STANLEY. THE NEW YORK TIMES, SEATTLE TIMES AND MINNEAPOLIS NEWSPAPERS REPORTED TO THE WORLD ABOUT OUR BOOMING AREA. THE OIL INDUSTRY IN THE STATE EXPECTS TO NEED 12,000 NEW WORKERS BY 2010.

IT LOOKS LIKE THERE WILL BE NEW GROWTH IN THE STANLEY AREA!
