No water skiing or boat racing
Odland,,rs dam has been
closed to water skiing and speed
boat racing on Sundays, according
to Mrs. Lewis Odland and Mrs.
C.C. Clark, owners of the property
at the dam.
Visitors have abused the privi-
lege and have endangered the lives
of families spending the day fishing
and picnicking at the dam, conse-
quently the dam will be closed to
this sort of sport on Sundays.
Ed Bry, State Game Warden, will
be on hand to enforce this ruling.

at the time the first stagecoaches
had traveled.
"Imagine what the passengers
back then must have experienced,"
one rider on board commented.
"With more than two horses, the
ride would have been faster, and
possibly a lot more dusty than what
we're going through."
"And probably a lot rougher
than this road," Penny answered.
Penny also mentioned that
Lauren loved horses and wasn't
surprised when her granddaughter
chose to ride with driver, Jim Burg,
on top of the stage rather than
inside with her family.

Disaster planning
Pandemic. Drought. Tomado. Flooding
across our great state. It has been quite
spring. Preparedness is the word
Southwest Water Authority (SWA) began
disaster planning in 1998 in preparation
for Y2K. A disaster recovery manual was
developed and agreements with others were
formed. Thankfully, Y2K did not occur, but in
2001, the tragic events of September 11 took
place, and in 2005, Hurricanes Katrina and
Rita, New requirements were implemented
by the Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA). All water utilities had to complete a
vulnerability assessment and develop an
Emergency Response Plan (ERP).
SWA has been a part of the Southwest
Regional Disaster Coalition since 2006,
and last fall SWA finalized and signed
a Memorandum of Understanding with
Gardson Diversion Conservancy Distdct
for providing emergency services to SWA
should a situation develop that requires
assistance. SWA has also been a part of the
WARN (Water and Wastewater Response
Network) steering committee in North
Dakota. WARN programs allow utilities to
cross jurisdictional boundaries to provide aid
during andfollowing an emergency.
SWA has also taken part in tabletop
exercises, had staff trained in Incident
Command Systems and employees have
been fit tested for personal .protection
equipment. Employees have also had
training in pandemic flu preparedness.
Should a disaster occur, our vision of
providing quality water to southwest North

house, as they passed through the
trees.
After the ride, which stopped at
the parking lot of the Chateau
deMores, they went inside to buy
tickets to see the 126-year-old
structure. But before going up to
the house, they were invited to view
an original stagecoach that had
been owned by the Marquis
deMores, who had started a stage
line from Medora to Deadwood.
As the stagecoach ride takes the
passengers away from the sights
and most of the sounds of the mod-
em world, it doesn't take a lot of
imagination to picture the West of
the 1880s, dust and all.

In 2002, Jimmie Johnson joined the Cup series. He

ished second in the 2004 Cup standings. In 2005,

all year, but finished 5th in points after crashing in the
midway point of the final race of the season. In 2006,
Jimmie Johnson won his first Cup Championship with
a stretch of top five finishes in the Chase for e Cup.
In 2007, Johnson entered The Chase as the leader
and became the first drk, er to win ten limes in a sea-

years. Jimmie won his second straight championship
with a 7th place finish in the final race. He defeated
Jeff by 77 points. Last year, he entered The
