COLUMN: Get your July off to a jubilant start
In July, you might not be blissfully biking over in Donegal County in Ireland, or watching Niagara Fall, or figuring out what makes the Canyon Grand, but you can still have more exciting, jubilant places to go and things to see and do than there’s time to go, see and do them in – right here in Minot – thanks in part to the effervescent Terri Aldrich, executive director of the Minot Area Council of the Arts. Terri not only arranges for all the events in our parks. She’s a talented vocalist with the Java Jive Jazz combo and member of the singing group “Sisters by Choice and Friends.” She also makes the popcorn people munch on in the summer park programs, and reminds you whatever money you drop into the strategically placed receptacles help keep the programs coming, and invites everyone to bring themselves, a chair or a cushion and a blanket or umbrella and plop down to relax and enjoy an afternoon in one of our beautiful parks.
