The Watertown Victory Office held an open house last night that was well attended. I stopped by around 4:30 and had the opportunity to visit with several candidates, volunteers, and interested citizens. In the photo above is Judy Trzynka (Codington County Chairwoman), myself, Art Fryslie (Senate candidate in District 6), and Mark Rovold, who is the new Victory office director.

Here is the Solum family, enjoying a good laugh.

And here is Mark….obviously begging his wife LaDonna for her assistance in the upcoming months. I had a nice visit with the young man to the right…(yes, I’ve forgotten his name..I think…umm, Clay?)…anyways, he is one of the new students at Lake Area Tech participating in the Fire Medic program that just started this fall. He had lots of excellent feedback on the program and was impressed with the level of medical training that was required for completion of the course. He lives near Aberdeen, but is enjoying the Watertown area as he receives his education. ….as for me….I’m seriously thinking about taking one of those courses on remembering people’s names…

It was a great time to gather with friends and celebrate the campaign season. It sounds like this weekend is when the big push is going to start for putting up signs and getting advertising going. If you’d like a Noem sign on your land or yard….just give me a call!
