At our June 25th program we started by celebrating LWVPRA for 25 years of continuous service to the Hubbard County area. On January 4, 2000, twenty-two people gathered at the library to elect a chair and advisor to the chair for the newly re-established League of Women Voters. Park Rapids had an active League of Women Voters during the 1930s but faded in the 50’s and 60’s.
We honor the following people who participated in the
January 2000 meeting:
Pam Heeren, Florence Hedeen, LuAnn Hurd-Lof, Sue Cutler, Brita Sailer, Nancy Carroll, Irene Weis, Jan Fredell, Jean Grimes , Sharon
Rezac Andersen, Jan Fredell, Iva Theilges, Chris Brocker, Jane Reish,
Connie Converse, Joanne Aeling, Carol Nelson, Ester Fieldman, Helen O’Dair, Nancy Tague, Karen Kok, Al Undem
Thank you for your foresight, energy and your service to this community.
After that we gathered to listen to our speakers for the evening: Sabrina Halvorson, CEO of North Dakota News Cooperative and Shannon Geisen, Editor Park Rapids Enterprise. They spoke about media literacy, how to avoid misinformation and recognize disinformation. At the end the audience joined the conversation with many thoughts and questions.
