Digital Mammography is now available in Detroit Lakes.Recent studies show Digital Mammography is significantly better than film mammography in screening women who were under age 50,or women of any age who had very dense breasts. It also uses less radiation than a traditional mammography.
With all the discussion about early detection, it’s good to know that Digital Mammography is now available in Detroit Lakes - only at St. Mary’s Innovis Health.

HistoriesHistory
Of course your best bet for information on his-tory is the Becker County Museum and Historical Society. But there are locations throughout the county with points of interest to stop and see. n Audubon — Cook Family Massacre. There isn’t much there physically to see, but the story behind is worth the trip. In 1862, the Small and Cook families moved from the White Earth Reservation, where they worked for the government, to Audubon. One night the Cook family was murdered, thrown into the cellar and the house was set on fire. It was later learned that both families had been murdered. A monument is located south of Audubon on County Road 11. n Cormorant area — Bucks Mills. Although the mill is gone, the dam is still in place and serves as a popular fishing location. When Simon Buck and William Buck came to Cormorant Lake around 1870, they took claims to land and built a house. The nearest place to purchase goods was Alexandria, about 100 miles away. After return-ing to McLeod County to pick up their families, John McClelland joined the group coming back to the area, settling on Lake Eunice. A settlement started at Buck’s mill, around 1871. Later that year, the Buck brothers moved to Lake View Township and built a sawmill. Bucks Mill, lo-cated eight miles south of Detroit Lakes, was settled by and named for the brothers. The dam first washed out in 1874. They rebuilt and continued sawing timber. It washed out again in 1878, and they gave up sawing lumber. The Pelican Navigation Company had formed by then, and since the Buck brothers didn’t have title to water rights, they discontinued the sawmill. Mr. Milton took over the sawmill until 1886, and then sold the mill to Mr. Switzer, who was unsuccessful. Once the Pelican Navigation Co. was formed, Bucks Mill came back to life. Steamers Lady of the Lakes and the Robert Fulton hauled logs from Bucks Mill to Detroit.
In 1905, the dam washed out yet again, and John West built the first concrete dam and locks at Bucks Mills. Future plans for the mill were never carried out af-ter America joined World War I in 1917, and it became a picnic area after that. In 1920, the dam and locks were destroyed, making the canal a stream. Because of fluc-tuating water supply though, in 1936, the government rebuilt the dam. In 1955, the State Conservation Department pur-chased 29 acres of the old Buck farm and built a fish rearing pond. The trees were all taken out and the river was straightened, forming a large pond to the west of the dam where fish were placed in the summer and fed artificially and then placed in the lakes in the fall. n Detroit Lakes — Public Library. On Sept. 9, 1907, “A number of women met with Mrs. Bohlauder. The Bay View Reading Circle, having decided to change its course of study and in having been recommended that a women’s club take its place, dissolved, in order that this club might be formed.” That comes from the minutes of the first meeting es-tablishing the Library Club in then Detroit. After a January 1908 meeting where the women had a state representative come to help them organize, in 1913, the club received a grant from the Carnegie Foundation to build a library building. The grant built the building, but it was still the women’s responsibility to run the library and stock the shelves with books. They also asked the city to take over responsibility of the building because it was a nec-essary institute for the city of Detroit. Not only did the women hold books fairs with used books, they also provided new books for sale because there likely wasn’t a bookstore in Detroit at the time. Over time, Friends of the Library has evolved from Library Club to do fund-raising and other sponsored events at the library. The Library Club remains the so-cial aspect of the library. Since that time, the library has been added onto and upgraded, but the original Carnegie building stands strong. The building can be viewed and toured at the corner of Washington Avenue and Frazee Street.

A walk through historyCounty Museum to host walking tours of downtown this summer
Put on your walking shoes and get ready to learn about the history of downtown Detroit Lakes. The Becker County Museum is hosting three walk-ing tours June 15, 17 and 19 beginning at the museum. From the museum, Museum Manager Carrie John-ston will guide people toward the Graystone building, sharing history along the way, “the basics of Detroit Lakes starting.” She said a lot of her early information will come from the Alvin Wilcox’s “A Pioneer History of Becker County.” To keep the tour at one hour, Johnston said she’ll walk and talk and not have tours of the insides of any buildings along the way. The museum will also provide a booklet to go with the tour with pictures along the way and a paragraph about the building. “It will be showcasing the files here and what people have access to,” she said. She’ll talk about the train depot, the north side of the tracks, and then continue down Washington Avenue. The downtown buildings and previous businesses will be discussed, and unique features like the elevator in Norby’s. She’ll also tell about the 1914 fire downtown and the 1915 fire that burned the Hotel Minnesota and “changed the face of Detroit Lakes.” The tour will turn at the library and will talk about some of the houses on Lake and Summit avenues. It will also have information on the former fire department lo-
cation (the plaza building on Lake Avenue that hous-es Collin Peterson’s office) and the former post office (school administrative building). “I hope to learn more than I tell,” Johnston, who will be giving the tours herself, said. “It’ll be fun to gather information, too.” If these three dates are a success, Johnston said she will add more tours this summer, and the overall plan is to expand the tour each summer, eventually going down to the Pavilion and beach. The June 15 and 17 tours start at 5:30 p.m. The June 19 tour begins at 9:30 a.m. The tours are free, but $5 is requested for those who wish to keep the booklets.

Riding for charityHumane society, Ronald McDonald House benefit from motorcyclists
For all you motorcycle enthusiasts out there, there are at least two rides coming in June for charity. The 9th Annual Ronald McDonald House Ride is June 12 and will benefit the Ronald McDonald Houses in Fargo. Then the Hawgs 4 Dawgs ride is June 19, with regis-tration from 10 a.m. to noon at Zorbaz in Detroit Lakes. All proceeds benefit the Humane Society of the Lakes. Hawgs 4 Dawgs This year’s Detroit Lakes motorcycle ride will not only raise funds for the humane society, it is dedicat-ed to the memory of Elliot Close, 3-month-old son of Darrick and Carmin Close, who passed away from sud-den infant death syndrome earlier this year. Jill Mickelson said the Closes and Carmin’s parents, Erv and Mary Cahlin, have been involved with the hu-mane society so it seemed fitting. “We decided that the grandma, grandpa and parents have been loyal supporters, we dedicated it to him,” she said. The ride will have stops at Berry’s on Strawberry Lake, Pinehurst, Ice Cracking Lodge and Sunlite. Money raised at the event will go to “pay down the debt for the building,” Mickelson said.
Ronald McDonald House Ride The New York Mills ride raises about $100,000 a year
the Ronald McDonald Houses in Fargo, where kids and their families have a temporary place to call home while loved ones recover from serious injuries and illnesses. Camping opens Thursday, June 10, at 9 a.m. There are no reservations. Friday there will be musical entertainment by Arch Allies, a Styx, REO and Journey tribute band. There will be a pancake breakfast in the New York Mills School Saturday morning at 8 a.m., and the Bike Rodeo begins at 9. The ride leaves at noon, rain or shine. There will be stops in Henning for the hot dog challenge and Dent for a beverage. The ride is 86 miles. After the ride, there will be a pork chop dinner at the Eagles Café. There will also be door prizes, a silent and live auction, the burnout competition and a giveaway of the 2010 Harley Davidson Road King Classic. Cutloose will perform that night, as will Aultimate Ozzy (an Ozzy Osborne tribute band). Sunday morning there will be a free-will offering breakfast at the VFW. In 2009, there were over 1,250 motorcycles, and raised $108,438.

Carving out a nicheOsage man’s hobby leads to perfection of decoy woodcarving
Ken Lymburner of Osage is no fish out of water when it comes to carving and painting wooden spearing decoys — but that’s what his work looks like — exactly like fish out of water. Working mostly from photos, he makes walleye, crappies, northern pike, blue gills, golden trout — even artic churn and humpbacked salmon come to life under his chisels and airbrush. You can see them hanging over the dining area at Cindy Q’s café in Osage, where many customers mis-take them for the real thing, said owner Cindy Hart and employee Joyce Tretbar. Some, including a few who are woodcarvers them-selves, simply refuse to believe they aren’t real fish pre-served by a taxidermist, Hart said. Lymburner owned and operated Lymburner Awning in Osage for years, until he turned the business over to his son, David, about 10 years ago. “I’ve only been going five years on it,” Ken said of his wildlife carvings. But a tour of his small garage studio quickly makes it apparent to a visitor that, when Lymburner gets in-volved in a hobby, he’s all in. If you’re not hooked by the realistic game fish hang-ing from the ceiling, take a gander at the full-size carv-ing of an eagle clutching a fish and resting on a tree stump. It took him the better part of a year to carve, and
barely fits in his garage. The eagle is holding a walleye, which “kind of pro-vokes people,” he said with a laugh. “I should have made it a sucker or a perch.” Or check out the huge largemouth bass hanging on a wall like a sportsman’s dream. Lymburner carved and painted it himself, even putting in gills made from very thin strips of vinyl from the awning business. Still not convinced? Feast your eyes on the pair of ivory-billed woodpeckers sharing a tree stump in his garage. The stump is adorned with mushrooms, mosses and even bugs — hand-tied flies from his trout-fishing days. “I was offered $1,000 for it and turned it down,” Lymburner said. “I’m not out to make money on it — I just do it for the heck of it.” An identical pair of Lymburner’s ivory-billed wood-peckers (long thought extinct until spotted in 2005 in Arkansas) is on display at the Jones-Pearson Funeral Home in Park Rapids. “’Two Pairs of Ivory-Billed Woodpeckers Located in Northern Minnesota’ — that should be your headline,” he said with a smile. “Of course, they’re wooden ones.” Lymburner has made hundreds of wildlife woodcarv-ings, including a few whimsical ones like kissing fish, lounging turtles and moveable frogs with springs in the limbs. “I’ve carved about every kind of fish you can think

of,” he said, pointing to a grayling hanging in his stu-dio. “It probably has about the biggest dorsal fin of any inland fish.” He uses basswood for most of his work, which he buys in large blocks from the Two Inlets Mill. But he has done quite a few pieces in walnut, after a friend gave him a large block of the expensive wood. Those, including ruffed grouse and swans, he left un-painted and finely polished to show off the beauty of the dark brown wood. Through trial and error he has refined his work since he started making spear-fishing decoys in 2004. A friend came over one day and invited him to a carving class in Detroit Lakes run by Red Spadgenske. “That’s what got me started,” he said. Lymburner ended up buy-ing the instructor’s box of chisels and other carving tools, and set up sharpening wheels in his shop. “I can tell when I get them right like I like them,” he said of the chisels, showing visitors how the two wheels work. “When a tool gets dull, that’s when it cuts you.” In the beginning, he used mostly cedar, but found “the grain always raised on them,” he said. He also used to paint with acrylics, but found he gets a much more realistic look with lacquer-based paint. He almost exclusively paints with one of two air-brushes, one that lays down a wide swath for covering large areas and one that adjusts to allow fine detail work. He took an airbrush class and even worked with a taxi-dermist, Bill Waldron, to get the most realistic look pos-sible. “He (Waldron) said ‘I don’t want to offend you, but you could use some help with your painting.’” Lymburner said. “I said ‘you’re just the man I want to talk to.’” For a while, he would sand off and repaint his fin-ished work as his skills improved. He’d be in and out of the Osage café with restored pieces.
The largemouth bass in his studio was repainted three times. But now he lets it go. “That’s what it looked like when I did it,” he said. On larger pieces, he now uses a woodworking joint-er to seamlessly attach pieces of wood as fins, tails or wings. Woodcarving has become Lymburner’s passion, but he still makes time for the important things in life, like his wife, Donna.
And fishing. “Sometimes I get interested and get out here early in the morning and don’t get out until 10 at night,” Lymburner said. “Other days I don’t come in at all.”

Farmers Market is openStop by Tuesdays, Saturdays for some fresh picked veggies and products
Hankering for some hand-picked veggies, real maple syrup or even fresh doughnuts? Then mosey on over to the Lakes Area Farmers Market, where you can find all sorts of homemade and locally grown foodstuffs.
You can feel the lake breeze, enjoy the shade trees and shop barefoot with your toes sunk deep in the green grass of City Park, right next to the Pavilion near the Detroit Lakes City Beach. The market opened for the season May 15, and is open for business from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Tuesdays and Saturdays throughout the summer months. There are 28 full-time venders this year, enough so that organizers are looking at three rows of booths in-stead of two this year, said farmers market president Linda Leitheiser. There are also part-time venders and those who show up occasionally, she said. Not all full-timers are there at the same time, it de-pends on what they’re selling — sweet corn venders ob-
viously aren’t there until the corn ripens in late July or August. Already available are venders selling fresh rhubarb, asparagus, spinach, lettuce and other vegetables, real maple syrup and homemade doughnuts. (The dough-nuts are from Leitheiser, who made more than 1,700 dozen last year). New venders at the farmers market this year will sell
homemade chips and salsa, local-ly-raised meat and homemade barbecue. Venders come from a 60-mile radius around Detroit Lakes and their goods are required to be grown or produced at home. “You cannot bring anything in from out of state and you cannot bring anything in you have not made yourself,” Leitheiser said. “It must be your own product.” Some venders accept WIC (Women, Infants and Children) coupons, so that “mothers with small children can come out and get good, fresh produce,” she add-ed. The market opens at 10 a.m. sharp — no early sales — in or-der to give all venders a chance to set up and get ready before the selling begins. “If a vender comes in and is running late, we all help them get set up — we have a good group of people here,” she said. Then a cowbell is rung and the selling starts.
The farmers market is a popular place with the lo-cals, and others. “In the summertime we have a lot of tourists who come,” she said. Organizers are planning some special events this summer, including several customer appreciation days in which all the venders chip in to create a big gift bas-ket to be given away in a drawing. “We may also have a kids’ day this summer, with face painting and fun things for kids to do,” Leitheiser said. The City of Detroit Lakes has been “very coopera-tive” with the farmers market, helping reserve parking spots in the morning so venders can set up, Leitheiser said.

Indoor, outdoor marketsShady Hollow and SuLaine’s flea markets open for weekend traffic
This summer, shoppers will have two choices for flea markets. Shady Hollow, the outdoor market that has been open for 41 years, and SuLaine’s Flea Market, which is new this month and will be located indoors.
Shady Hollow Shady Hollow has been serving Detroit Lakes for 41 years, many of which have been under the ownership of Ardy Hanson. First as a vendor and then as part owner, Hanson said she’s been a part of the flea market for all but 12 of those 41 years. Started by Julia Nustad and nine other women from the Fargo-Moorhead area, they would only allow 10 vendors at one time. Now, there averages 145 vendors on opening weekend — Memorial weekend — and then 75 to 80 on the other summer Sundays. Vendors sell anything from jewelry to clothing, art-work to food, antiques to furniture, books to home dé-cor, flowers to toys. “The year the gas went up, that first year, it changed. There weren’t as many vendors that year,” Hanson said of the changes over the years. “Once they got conditioned to the higher prices though, it seemed they came more.” Hanson got involved when she and partner Monte Jones set up a booth to sell collectibles. Then they ran the flea market for six years for Julia, and then they purchased it from her when she retired. Now, due to her age, Hanson said she’s ready to sell the flea market, and it is up for sale. Right now, just through word of mouth. The land, long before it was a flea market, was a veg-etable farm, she said. Then Highway 59 was built, going through the middle of the land.
“When we came out here, there was hardly any park-ing,” Hanson said. “Every day is was tough to find park-ing. It was so busy.” Now, on the three-day weekends, which happen three times throughout the summer, there is a potluck among the vendors. Hanson said there are people who visit the flea mar-ket every Sunday throughout the summer. “It’s a fun place because people come out there and meet one another, have coffee, have an old-fashioned breakfast, and they like to just lollygag around a while.”
SuLaine’s Flea Market If the name sounds familiar, that’s because it is. Sue Petersen is also the owner of SuLaine’s Antique Mall, located in front of the new Boys and Girls Club Thrift Store and More building, formerly Pamida. The flea market location will be three miles east of Detroit Lakes in Highway 10, formerly the Tools & More building. Peterson said last month that she plans to start with a 10,000 square foot space that she will lease for a year, and if it goes well, she will expand.
There will be space for at least 60 indoor vendors in addition to the outdoor area. Those interested in setting up at the market can either rent the space for the day, weekend or month.
SuLaine’s has an advantage with the indoor space available, but she said she’ll also be able to cooperate with Shady Hollow, exchanging vendors in case of rain or in case she runs out of room.
“The more businesses you have that compliment each other, you get more people coming to the area,” Petersen said.
SuLaine’s Flea Market is open weekends beginning May 8. The hours will be flexible depending on traffic but will be open at 7 a.m. all year long.

In search of the woodcockPopulations are decreasing ; Tamarac biologists are studying why
Early summer is a wonderful time to quietly ob-serve the young of spring. Look for deer fawns hiding behind their mothers, bear cubs exploring their new world, and eaglets demanding to be fed. Experience the vibrant colors and fragrances of early summer wood-land flowers including the showy pink lady slipper. Listen for songbirds as they settle in for the summer season.
Wildlife watching Here at Tamarac, wildlife is left undisturbed as they care for their young. Portions of the refuge are closed to the public during this crucial time, but many viewing opportunities still exist. The most optimum times for viewing wildlife occur around sunrise and sunset. But sometimes even an afternoon visit can be rewarding to the quiet, watchful observer. To increase your chances of seeing wildlife, take a drive on the Blackbird Auto Tour Route. This five-mile drive follows the edges of lakes, marshes and meadows. If you feel inclined to exercise, hike the two-mile long Old Indian Hiking Trail and experience the beauty of the maple basswood forest.
Fishing Try your luck in one of our five lakes open to fishing. There are many varieties of fish to be caught includ-ing crappie, walleye, sunfish, northern pike and bass.
A fishing map and regulations can be obtained at the refuge information kiosks or the visitor center.
Visitor Center If you’ve got questions, our enthusiastic staff has an-swers! We are eager to help you make the most of your visit. Check out our interactive exhibits and learn about the diverse habitats which, support Tamarac’s many species of wildlife. Learn about the historical use of the refuge including that of the Ojibwe Indians and the European settlers. Be sure to view our large screen presentation entitled: “Tamarac: Its Life and Legends.” Before you leave, browse in the Tamarac Bookshop. Proceeds from sales support educational programs at the refuge. The visitor center is located nine miles north of Hwy 34. Visitor center hours are Monday-Friday, 8 a.m.–4 p.m. and weekends 10 a.m.–5 p.m.
Guided tours, Sunday movies, presentations Wildlife Excursions will be offered every Thursday June through August from 10 a.m. to noon. Explore the refuge with a knowledgeable guide. Search for wild-life and learn about the cultural and natural history of Tamarac. Wildlife films, special programs or activities will be offered every Sunday at 2 p.m.

In search of woodcockBy Jayme Dittmar The American Woodcock is a sought after game bird and a popular species among bird watchers, but it’s in trouble. According to Tamarac biologist Wayne Brininger, woodcock populations are decreasing across the na-tion by approximately 1 percent per year in the central United States and around 1.5 percent in the eastern United States. Tamarac’s student research biologist, Kyle Daly, said that though the early successional habitats of shrubby forest floors and pole-sized trees re-quired for woodcocks are remaining constant or rising on Tamarac, the population continues to decrease. “Usually an increase in habitat will also increase a species’ population because they will have more avail-able resources, but this isn’t happening at Tamarac,” he said. In 2009, Tamarac biologists radio marked and tracked 12 woodcock chicks. They documented a signif-icantly poor survival rate. But with such a small sam-ple size there may be inconsistencies within the study. Biologists emphasize that this was only an initial pilot study to obtain an idea of woodcock population statis-tics on the refuge. Tamarac has received funding for 2010 to continue the study of the American woodcock by increasing sample sizes and improving radio tracking techniques. Only time will tell how Tamarac’s stocky sandpipers of the woods are doing and what their future may hold.

Midnight CruisersCar enthusiasts are welcome to participate or just view the classics
For the past 11 years, the Midnight Cruisers has grown in size but has stayed a close-knit group of clas-sic car enthusiasts. “We’re one big happy family,” Lloyd Thompson, De-troit Lakes, said. “It started out as a handful of people. We’ve grown to several handfuls.” Each Wednesday from May 1 through September of October (depending on the weather), the group meets at 6:30 p.m. at Classics Auto Repair and Restoration, locat-ed on Highway 59 South at the old Ranch Amusement Park property. The first Wednesday of the month, they leave their classics parked in the lot and have a Show and Shine. The remaining Wednesdays, they meet and then drive together to a pre-determined location for dinner. “Anyone who sees us during the Show and Shine (from the highway) is welcome to stop in,” Kit Nelson, Vergas, said. Although it’s not a requirement to be in their group, many of their cars are from the 1950s. Some even have garages full of ’50s memorabilia. “It’s nostalgic in reliving our childhood. When we get together, we’re all 19,” Nelson said with a laugh. One big difference between this car group and others is just that, they’re a group, not a club. There are no officers, and there are no dues. Most of them are mem-bers of the Minnesota Street Rod Association though. Lee Swanson, Detroit Lakes, said they’ve seen dis-cord in other organizations where some want the pow-er, but not them. “We’re the un-club,” Nelson agreed.
The group sits down twice a year to plan the up-coming six months. This summer, besides the Show and Shine, they will be traveling to various locations throughout the area on Wednesdays. Some of the public locations to view the cars at include June 9: Sandbar; June 30: 917 (the former Avenue restaurant in Detroit Lakes); Aug. 11: Shorewood Pub; Aug. 25: Sunlite; Sept. 8: Billy’s in Vergas; Sept. 15: Show and Shine potluck; Sept. 22: Zorbaz in Detroit Lakes; Sept. 29: Playtime in Perham. More information can be found at http://au-tos.groups.yahoo.com/group/DLMidnightCruisers. Each fall, the car group hosts a fall foliage tour, where they drive 150 miles one day in October to see the leaves changing. They’ve gone to Maplewood State Park and Itasca State Park, and try to change destinations each year. “Last year was the only one there’s been rain,” Diane Thompson said. The trip is open to anyone, whether they drive a clas-sic car or not. They also road trip down to St. Paul each June for the Back to the ’50s celebration at the state fairgrounds, and this year they are planning a cruise to Ashland, Wis., over the July 4 weekend. On the trips they take in the sites and any car shows in the area. In 2006, some even started Route 66 in Chicago and drove all the way to the end in Los Angeles, then back home to Minnesota. A different year, a group drove in the Hot Rod Power Tour, a 3,300-mile drive from Little Rock, Ark., through Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota and Wisconsin. “We’re doing things we couldn’t afford at (age) 20,” Swanson said.
