Bloom wins Beck Woodcut at PWLC

Published Tuesday, October 7, 2008

John Bloom of Security State Bank was the winner of the Friends of the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center raffle. The raffle was conducted on Saturday, Aug. 9, in conjunction with the annual Return to the Prairie Day. The Beck Woodcut, titled “Winter Willow”, was generously donated by Janet Anderson of Perham in loving memory of her late husband Bob Anderson who was instrumental in helping the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center become a reality.

This year’s Return to the Prairie Day theme focused on “Arts on the Prairie” with several local artists displaying and demonstrating their artwork. In addition to Art on the Prairie, it was the grand opening of the new Prairie Science Class Education Wing and Teaching Greenhouse, the 10th anniversary of the Prairie Wetlands Learning Center, the 50th anniversary of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Small Wetlands Acquisition Program and the 75th anniversary of the Duck Stamp.

The Daily Journal is happy to host community conversations about news and life in Fergus Falls and the surrounding area. As hosts, we expect guests will show respect for each other. That means we don't threaten or defame each other, and we keep conversations free of personal attacks. Witty is great. Abusive is not. If you think a post violates these standards, don't escalate the situation. Instead, flag the comment to alert us. We'll take action if necessary. It's not hard. This should be a place where people want to read and contribute -- a place for spirited exchanges of opinion. So those who persist with racist, defamatory or abusive postings risk losing the privilege to post at all.
