Sentinel Butte News By Jane Cook
Golva News By Shirley Schulte
Relatives gathered at the home
of Larry and Shirley Schulte on
Sunday to visit with Cheryl Dyer
Vargas from Texas. She is the
granddaughter of former residents,
Nell and Ida (Wehrman) Kane.
The Kane's were janitors at the
Golva School years ago. Cheryl's
Dad, Jim Dyer was the contractor
hired to build the Parish House at
St. John's Catholic Church in
Beach. Those gathering to visit
were Irvin and Virginia (Wehrman)
Bares from Beach, Delbert and
Jean Schulte from Glendive, Darrel
and Heidi Schulte and family from
Hebron and Jerry and Susan
Erlenbusch from Circle. Cheryl
came to attend her class reunion
that was being held in Glendive
that weekend.
Mike Bostyan from Denver, CO
and his daughter Becky Lilly and
three children from the Washington
DC area came to spend some time
with Grandpa Joe Bostyan, Mike's
brother Rick and his family, and
the Rising families. Steve Rising
and his daughters Rachel and
Brandi from Arizona were here vis-
iting also.
Jacob and Sam Stoveland were
among those attending the Luther
League Youth Gathering at New
Orleans, LA.
Page Rising, Lexi Nistler, Kayla
Howard, Katrina Shumway and
Karl Schmeling from Golva were
among the girls attending volley-
ball camp this past week in Beach.
A coach from DSU was here to
conduct the camp.
Some residents in the Golva
area are reporting that they got
around two inches of rain in the
past week. Some had,more, others
a little less, but it was sure a wel-
come sight to see those nice big
drops falling from the sky.
Lightning was responsible for tak-
ing out a few phones and starting a
fire in the area. A hay bale was
struck near the Shumway residence
and everyone was grateful that
about three inches of rain fell to
help put the fire out and keep it
from spreading to the nearby bales.
Marie Nistler had knee replace-
ment surgery in Bismarck on
Monday. On Wednesday, when
asked how she was doing, she
replied "so far, so good". We hope
she continues to improve, and will
be back to running foot races soon.
Gary Maus had back. surgery
recently. Brenda says he is back to
working more than he should be. I
guess you can't keep a good man
down.
Wibaux County Nursing Home News By Sandy He/vik
Wow! Can you believe we are
into the month of August already?
The fairs will be going on, fall
sports practices, and then school.
The Golden Valley Fair will be
the first weekend in August. They
have lots of fun things planned, so
check it out. The Nursing Home is
serving a breakfast on Saturday,
August 4th from 7:00am to
10:30am. Come and join your
friends and neighbors at their
Community Center.
Have you heard - our Boiler
Fundraiser has reached over the
$60,000.00 mark. We do appreci-
ate the many people and organiza-
tions who have helped make this
possible. Because of the hot weath-
er being so hot, our repair guy has
been delayed but, we expect him
anyday.
The hot weather has affected
everything, as they have cancelled
a couple of Friday outings with the
residents due to the heat. A sing-a-
long was held as no one was inter-
ested in going out. The monthly
birthday party was also "hot" as
Kaci decorated the residents cake
to look like fireworks exploding.
Every week the residents play
bingo so if you can help out call
Jeanie, Debbie, or Carla.
The August resident birthdays
will be Beverly Remillong from the
Beach area and Dorothy Cretsinger
from the Baker area. Our employ-
ee birthday is Tandra Stedman.
Happy Birthday to you all.
Our Employee Fundraiser for
the flooring project is also moving
along nicely. So far we have sold
over 600 cookbooks. And, we still
have more to sell if you'd like one.
We'll be selling books at the break-
fast and at the Wibaux fair. And,
don't forget to look at the beautiful
quilt which will be on display at
both events also. Linda Halverson,
Exie Hafele's daughter made the
quilt with all proceeds, from the
chances sold, to go to our Boiler
Fund.
Tom Horn shared his musical
talents with the residents on July
29th.
Our new DON has arrived!
Lillian Silvers has joined us at
Wibaux County Nursing Home.
Welcome! I'll let Lillian get settled
in and then I'll write more about
her.

Late Wed. afternoon, July 25, as
Ray Rue (an employee of Buster
Finneman of Golva) was about to
have the supply tank filled on the
pickup by the Farmers Union truck
from Bowman, the propane sudden-
ly burst into flames, spraying Dale
Olson, the driver of the Farmers
Union truck, and Frank Fish, farmer
of Mannarth, for whom thy were
0rnbining, and all suffered bums of
varying degrees.
Several men from the State Game
and Fish Dept., along with game
warden, Ed Bry of Belfield checked
Odland's dam with traps and gill nets
Wed. morning and found that very
few of the 30,000 fingerling trout
released there this spring are still in
the dam.
L. A. Barrow, as he is best known
by his initials, has been with the N. P.
Railroad company better than 46
years and has been stationed at
Beach for the past 29 years, says it is
with regret and sadness that he is
retiring.
Local grading and structure work

It is no surprise that more wealth
is coming to North Dakota families
due to oil and gas leasing and
drilling. Coupled with increased
personal wealth in the region and
lower return on investment through
traditional sources, more and more
people are seeing private invest-
ment as a means to capitalize small
business start up and growth needs
in the region with a potential to get
a better return on their investment.
Often private investment comes
through professionally run invest-
ment organizations, but in the case
of personal private investment from
friends and family members, often-
times the minimum requirements
set by the North Dakota Securities
Commission are being overlooked.
On Wed., August 8th Money,
Investments and Securities will be
presented at LaPlaya Restaurant in
Beach, ND, from 11:30 - 1:00 dur-
ing a Lunch N Learn session.
Michael Steve, Small Business
Development Center, will present
simple steps to help "test the
waters" with the Securities
Commission and ensure that invest-
ments are handled properly from
their perspective.
This session is targeted to small
businesses, private investors (family
and friends) as well as the profes-
sionals serving these clients such as
attorneys, accountants, business
planners and lenders.
Anyone considering private
investment or arranging for private
investment to start a business will
want to attend. This presentation is
sponsored by Prairie West
Development in cooperation with
the Strum Center for
Entrepreneurship and Innovation
through a U.S. Economic
Development Administration grant
and the Small Business
Development Center. It is free and
open to the public.

Friday, Tom and Kaitlynn
Wyckoff from Dickinson, and
Gabe Wyckoff from Medora
stopped in to visit with Jim and
Marj Wyckoff.
Many residents from the com-
munities of Sentinel Butte, Beach,
Golva, and the surrounding area,
as well as those out of state,
attended the funeral, of Don
Abernethy on Friday. Rella
Abernethy, her daughters,
LaDonna Fallgatter and Bobbi
Hanson, and their entire families
enjoyed the many relatives and
friends who helped, or just
stopped in to share their condo-
lences. Among them were Jack
and Norma Kastien from Seattle,
Wash., Janet Simmons from
Austin, Texas, Clark and Debbie
Pearson from Whitehood, Sask.,
Run and Mona Kramer from
Leoti, Kansas, all of Rella's sib-
lings and members of their fami-
lies, all too numerous to mention.
That night, Some of Rella's
grandchildren honored Don by
giving an impromptu concert at
the American Legion Club.
Musicians and singers included
Marvin and Marty Hanson, Russ
Smith, and Denny, Mitch and Jeff
Fallgatter.
Tom, Lynn and Kaitlynn
Wyckoff, Lois Walker, all from
Dickinson, and Dean, Lisa and
Gabe Wyckoff from Medora
stopped in at their parents home
to help Jim Wyckoff celebrate his
birthday on Saturday.
Sunday, Rella Abernethy and
daughter Bobbi Hanson drove to
Bismarck so that Rella could have
another chemo treatment on
Monday.
Sunday Lisa and Gabe

Jim and Marj Wyckoff in the early
afternoon. Later that day, Mr. and
Mrs. Roger Clemens from
Medora, and Judy and Chuck
Kahl from Wibaux, also stopped
in to visit with Jim and Marj.
Mary Cook decided to get
away for a little while and trav-
eled with her daughter and family,
Donna and Greg Hickman, Haley,
and C. J. as the Hickmans headed
home to Los Lunas, New Mex.
Jim and Marj Wyckoff traveled
to Wibaux to visit with Marj's sis-
ter Jean and Mick Nistler on
Thursday. They also visited with
Judy Kahl and Run Burman who
also stopped in at the Nistler's for
a visit.
Thursday morning Jane Cook
drove to Dickinson to be inter-
viewed on KLTC radio by person-
ality, Paul Quinn, about her mys-
tery novel. She enjoyed the
friendly people there, and the easy
way Mr. Quinn had that helped
her feel comfortable on the air.
(Except for one quick moment
when the gentleman stated,
"Nothing to worry about; just for-
get that thousands of people will
be listening to you!" Thanks a lot,
Paul. Maybe I should a write a
mystery about a radio host who
disappears?)
Afterwards, cousin, Jim
Samuels treated Jane to lunch at
the Elks, while another friend
later took her to supper.
Friday morning. Jim and Marj
Wyckoff and grandson, Gabe
Wyckoff drove to Beach.
