LETTER

Happy Birthday Bismarck Magazine! Only a short year ago we published our very first issue. This past year has been a whirlwind and we are nothing but humbled by the whole experience. We want to thank our incredible community of Bismarck, Mandan, and Lincoln for all of your support. We are extremely excited to start a new year and continue highlighting the amazing people, events and businesses our small town, growing city has to offer. Over the past couple of years we have all watched both downtown Bismarck and Mandan explode with new businesses, outdoor events and community growth projects. In this issue we are excited to highlight some of the big ones. Read ahead to find out how our downtowns began and how they will grow. Get excited for the expanding city we get to call home.

After 40 years... More ﬁreplaces. More experience.

theDOWNTOWNERS

The Downtowners 501C6 nonprofit similar to a chamber of commerce Have been around since 1906 and incorporated as a nonprofit in 1985 Made up of 200 members Members located in Bismarck and Mandan 30 percent of members come from non-downtown located businesses

The Foundation Standard 501C3 Allows for tax deduction Began in 2014 as a way to fund projects such as the upcoming Plaza renovation

Downtowners didn’t have more than one staff person full time. We wanted to be known as something more than just an events organization. BM: What are your goals as the Downtowners? KH: I think when you look at the Downtowners from the outside you see kind of all these projects: Quiet Rail, the Plaza, Main Avenue. They are all connected for a specific purpose, which is to make central downtown a place for residents. In a lot of downtowns, warehouses and old hotels are great for adaptive reuse in that you can make them apartments very easily. We don’t have a lot of warehouse type buildings in the downtown area, or old hotels that aren’t occupied for the most part. So it’s just getting rid of a whole bunch of barriers to make it more attractive, because the demand (for housing) is there. BM: Any future plans you can tell us about? KH: We are doing a ‘Walk Your City' campaign. It’s basically like a way-finding signage route that has a QR code that you can scan. It’s kind of designed to get people out and find their way around downtown when they are walking or biking. So it could say, ‘You’re 10 minutes from the library’ and it will point which way and the QR code can give you more information about the building. It’s kind of a tactical urbanism project that’s pretty cheap to do. So hopefully you’ll see that by March. BM: Anything else you want Bismarck to know? KH: Another project we are working on is called the Real Trail. It is essentially a multi-use trail that connects the downtown to the river trail system.

Quick Depot Plaza Facts The building was built in 1901. The original depot burned down in 1898 during a fire. Notable for its Spanish mission-style architecture (uncommon at the time). Worthy of preservation, the depot was nominated to the National Register of Historical Places in 1976. By 1916 the Northern Pacific Depot was serving 24 passenger trains daily.

DOWNTOWN TOURS

Story: Annette Willis Photos: Bismarck Tour Company

Annette Willis and her dad, Harvey Schilling, have been offering tours to bus groups for more than 15 years through the Bismarck-Mandan Convention and Visitors Bureau. When bus groups planned a stop in Bismarck one of the two would be called in as a step-on guide to give the group tours of the city. They "step-on" the bus, and travel the most interesting and unique stops in Bismarck. The tours serve up a bit of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s happening now in the community, along with a big helping of history and a touch (or a lot) of quirky humor. In September 2016, Willis decided it was time to make her tours more searchable for tour operators and launched the Bismarck Tour Company. She found the interest so great that she realized she'd need some help and soon partnered up with local guides to add more tours to the package. Each guide creates their own tour and Bismarck

BISMARCK MAGAZINE | MARCH-APRIL 2017

Tour Company coordinates the tours and reservations. Stacy Sturm was the first guide to sign on. Sturm offers a tour that features a mix of history and real ghost stories based on paranormal studies that have been conducted in the buildings. The thing that makes this tour exceptionally unique is that it gives guests a tour of Bismarck's underground tunnel system that's no longer open to the public. The tunnels were used as transportation of beer, liquor and women when Bismarck was still a developing community. "Luckily we have never seen any ghosts, but the tour is very exciting; it is the perfect mix of history and the supernatural. That's why I think people love it, they get to hear all about the incredible history of the underground, while also being a little spooked too," says Sturm. Dana Morrison leads tours through Bismarck's most

historic sites and paths in Bismarck including how the community was built and stolen as the State Capital, how Murderer's Gulch (and Bloody 4th Street) earned their titles. And about the characters who were integral in building this community. "My tour really presents the heart of Bismarck, where it grew from, and how it is growing.Â Â This tour is great for both those visiting and who live here, it allows people to see the starting point of this town," says Morrison. New tour offerings that will begin this spring include a St. Mary's Cemetery Tour, a German-Russian Heritage Day Tour, and the Bismarck Beer & Barrels Tour. Regularly scheduled tours will begin Memorial Day through Labor Day, but groups interested in booking a private tour can contact Annette Willis at bismarcktourcompany@ gmail.com or at 701-226-1950. Reservations are required and space is limited.

It began midweek on March 2nd. By Friday March 4th, the winds were up to 70 mph with gusts reaching up to 100 mph. The wind blew the snow drifts on the interstate that were 20 to 30 feet high. (see photo) The snowfall totals were as much as 35 inches in some places. Like many of our storms this year the State Highway Department requested no travel that year as well.

One Year Later... From a simple idea discussed over lunch to six issues published and a full year of stories, laughs and tears, Bismarck Magazine is excited to turn one year old. The Bismarck Magazine team has enjoyed the wild ride of starting the publication and all the ups and downs that come along with it. It’s officially been a year. We are back in the same spot sipping lattes and eating scones. Our co-founders sit next to each other, but with a bit of a different spirit than a year ago. Pride and confidence exuded from the women sitting across from me, they knew they had made it…made it a full year. Ladies, it's been a year, how does that make you feel? Hannah: Ecstatic! This past year has been great, but to finally have a year under our belts, it actually feels real. Caroline: It definitely does not feel like a project any more. It feels great to have made it a year, and see the impact that the magazine is having on our community.

Santa! I definitely think back on all six issues, and each one we had the opportunity to meet different people with their own unique story! Last July three families welcomed Bismarck Magazine into their homes. In September sixteen entrepreneurs let us share their stories of success. Then, of course, the Wilz family in November and the Ritchers in January. We are just so humbled by all of these incredible people! How is it working together? Caroline: Everyone asks us that, but we are best friends, and basically sisters. I mean we get on each other’s nerves, but we have so much fun doing all of this together! Hannah: We complement each other for sure! What I lack, she makes up for and visa versa. We definitely keep each other laughing...and about the most ridiculous things; it's what gets us through the day.

What's been the greatest part of your whole year? What's in store for this year? Hannah: Gosh, its hard to pick, this whole year has been pretty incredible. Looking back, though I think the greatest moments were sitting down with such incredible individuals and getting to know the amazing people who make up our community. If we didn't have this job, we would probably have never met these people. It's just such a privilege to share their stories. Caroline: I couldn't agree more, I mean we got to meet 24 BISMARCK MAGAZINE | MARCH-APRIL 2017

Caroline: The community can expect a lot this next year; we hold ourselves to a high standard and we hope our community does, too. Hannah: Caroline and I are both very excited for our coming issues; we don’t want to spoil too much, but expect to see more of the incredible people, things and places in this community!

can you have a pole out front. In the beginning, and traditionally the poles consist of the colors red, white and blue. The only manufacturer of barber poles in the United States, established in 1936, is Marvy's which is located in St. Paul. To date Marvy’s has produced over 83,000 poles. The company sells 500 poles per year compared to 5,100 in the 1960s. Two Marvy barber poles now are on permanent display at the Smithsonian Institution. Without a doubt, the barber pole remains a classic American icon. What do the colors signify? It goes all the way back to when your barber was not just your barber but your doctor and dentist as well. All three colors reference bloodletting, which is the withdrawal of blood from a patient to cure or prevent illness and disease. Red: In ancient Rome, barbers performed bloodletting on people to remove “humors” from the body so they would remain in proper balance to maintain health.

Makingthe Cut The only husband and wife duo of all the downtown barbers met at Gents Cuts and Groomers in St. Paul, fell in love, got married, went on their honeymoon and decided they didn’t want to work for anyone but themselves. The Barber's Wife was born. David Vetter is a Bismarck native and the couple decided that they would move back from St. Paul and pick a downtown Bismarck location for their barbershop. They have been open since May 2015. David knew right away that he wanted to own a barbershop. He told his family that he was quitting college at NDSU to go to barber school. Barber school in Minnesota is ten months, 40 hours a week with zero pay. “I knew the first day of school this was it for me,” says David. David had an apprenticeship for a year under a master barber Dusty Rode who also had trained under the famed Kirk Kefner. Hannah's path is a little different, and technically she is not a barber. She is a

cosmetologist who also trained under Kefner, who is both a barber and a cosmetologist. He is known all over the world for his work in hair and writing the curriculum for Aveda Schools. “I decided to try hair because I got my fine arts degree from the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis and I didn’t really know what to do with it. I figured hair would be something I could do because it is like art. I use visual aesthetics and design while cutting hair. Those are things that I thought I had a really good handle on,” says Hannah. “Men’s hair specifically is really informed by those things, coming up with a design that will compliment the person's face shape and hair texture. " Notice their barber pole is black and white. They wanted the custom made pole to be different from the traditional red, white and blue pole so they could stand out and market themselves. "We tell our first time customers to look for the black and white pole. Its our landmark,” says Hannah.

helping fight childhood cancer

one shaved head

at a time By Angela Magstadt • Photos by Elevate Studios

Because these kids have to be brave. We will be, too. The annual Brave the Shave head shaving campaign began 10 years ago. The purpose: Willing participants lose their locks while raising money to help kids with cancer. Since 2008, 2,200 volunteers have shaved their heads and raised $2.2 million to provide family support for kids with cancer and money for research. This year, there will be six area events. What drives it? The kids. Every year, Brave the Shave honors the children in the community who are currently battling cancer, those who have recently completed treatment, and those who have become angels. This year, Brave the Shave is honoring more than 60 of these “super kids.” Kids like 11-year-old Zakkry Arenz.

Zakk likes to play video games, go swimming, play outside with his friends, read, and wrestle with his brother and sister. His favorite subject is science, and he loves baseball – his favorite team is the Minnesota Twins. He says when he grows up, he wants to either be a businessman or a psychiatrist. Zakk was diagnosed with medulloblastoma, the most common type of brain tumor in children, in January 2016. Doctors in Mandan found the tumor and the next day the family was on their way to Children’s Hospital in St. Paul, MN. “We packed for a weekend and were gone for 10 days,” says Zakk’s dad, Jon. Doctors in St. Paul removed the tumor and Zakk spent the next week and a half in the hospital. It was during this time when the Arenz family received a call from a Brave the Shave representative saying that Zakk was going to receive an iPad to help him keep up with his homework and stay in touch with his family and friends while he was receiving treatment. “We wondered, why would they do this? What do they want from us?” Jon says. “And the answer is nothing. They just want to help. It is an organization that gives and gives and gives without expecting anything in return. They just want to help people in our situation.”

In December, 11-year-old Brave the Shave honoree, Zakk Arenz, was told he is now in remission.

After being released from the hospital following his surgery, Zakk was able to spend the next two weeks at home before heading to Florida for the next eight weeks with his mom, Dawn, to receive proton radiation therapy. These trips out of town continued for the next eight months, driving to Minneapolis once or twice a month for four or five days so Zakk could receive his treatments. Then in December, after a rollercoaster year, Zakk and his family received the news every family dealing with a cancer diagnosis longs to hear. Zakk is in remission. After his last treatment, Zakk’s family hosted a “last day of chemo party,” and true to his caring, loving nature, Zakk asked that instead of bringing him presents, he wanted those in attendance to donate to one of the charities that helped his family through this difficult year. Brave the Shave was at the top of that list. Although Zakk is through his treatments, he still requires quarterly scans and tests to continue to monitor his progress. Although the family would love more than anything to attend Brave the Shave’s flagship event on March 10, unfortunately they will be in Minneapolis/St. Paul, for Zakk’s tests. They do still plan to have a team of family and friends who can help Brave the Shave raise money to help provide family support and research through two organizations – the Brave the Shave Family Fund and the Andrew McDonough Be Positive (B+) Foundation. The Family Fund, started last year, supports families in the region by helping provide for things not covered by insurance and the many unexpected expenses that go along with a pediatric cancer diagnosis. And, B+ helps fund world-class, cutting-edge pediatric cancer research to help find a cure for these cancers. The 2017 Brave the Shave campaign is now open, and you can help these brave kids in their fight. It’s easy. Raise money and shave your head, cut eight or more inches of hair, or donate to this worthy cause by visiting bravetheshave.coop. You can also participate by attending one of the six area events. Fighting kids’ cancers has never been so much fun!

“Zakk’s Attack on Cancer,” was created by the Arenz family to raise money for family support and research through Brave the Shave.

Brave the Shave Family Fund, 'a ray of sunshine in a very rainy season' The Brave the Shave Family Fund provides “wrap-around” services and support for Brave the Shave honoree families. In its one year of existence it has saved families from losing their homes, put air purification systems in their homes to help protect them from illness, covered travel and lodging expenses, paid bills so they can buy their children Christmas presents, purchased iPads to keep kids on track with school and keep families connected while they are apart, and covered many other unexpected expenses. The Ohlsen family created “Team BalderDash” for the Brave the Shave main event March 10. Honoree, Dash, is pictured second from left.

The Wallace family created the Brave the Shave team, “Team Ryker,” in support of 8-year old honoree, Ryker, pictured second from left.

“I can’t express how great this is because there was nothing like it out there,” says Taner Ohlsen, Brave the Shave family representative and dad of 8-year-old honoree, Dash. “It can be used for an enormous range of things – it’s not a cookie-cutter approach where everyone gets the same thing. That’s one of the best things about it. We talk to the families to see what they need.” “The Brave the Shave Family Fund steps up almost immediately to help families going through childhood cancer,” adds Dawn Arenz, mom of 11-year-old honoree, Zakk. “It has helped us financially with some of the bills insurance doesn’t cover, such as Zakk’s highly beneficial vitamin C infusions and other vitamins. These bills alone have amounted to thousands of dollars. Without the Brave the Shave Family Fund, we would have been burdened with making the decision to either forego these treatments or figure out how we would pay our bills. It has been a total lifesaver for our family. We are so grateful for this organization.” Amazing. Guardian angels on earth. A miracle. Shelter during a storm. A ray of sunshine in a very rainy season. An umbrella when it’s pouring. A best friend that understands when others simply can’t. These are all words honoree families used to describe the Brave the Shave Family Fund. “Our honoree families are faced with many challenges,” says Tara Schilke, Brave the Shave Family Fund committee member. “Our hope is that the Family Fund can be a source of comfort for them throughout the year.”

Members of “Team Hunter,” created by the Seifert family, will shave their heads in support of 14-year-old Brave the Shave honoree, Hunter, pictured fourth from left.

If you know of a child who battled cancer, or is currently undergoing treatment, and would like to see him or her honored, contact Jennifer Holen at jholen@bepc.com.

Sewn stories Photos & Story By: Karel Sovak

ach stitch is like the tick of a clock. The pieces of fabric being connected bring another message to life one section at a time. Soon, the

compilation of material and labor reveals an artistic story that will be everlasting. Sister Nancy Gunderson of the Annunciation Monastery on the campus of the University of Mary knows the importance a piece of cloth can bring to illuminate a cause or even bring about some form of social change. Sister Nancy, who also teaches courses on the campus, began her quilting experience in 1993, when a daughter was selected to be a foreign exchange student in Ecuador. She thought a quilt would be a nice gift for the host family and she wanted the design to express an American theme. However, she soon learned that she was drawn to a different art form. I learned over the years that traditional quilting wasn’t my bag,” Sr. Nancy stated. “I found myself drawn to art quilting. The story quilt emerged within the last three years as my passion for stories and social justice began to meld.” An example of her work comes from the reality of a world that is mired in crisis. 42 BISMARCK MAGAZINE | MARCH-APRIL 2017

“I created a quilt based on the news events of August, 2016,” she said. “Everyone recognized the little boy from Aleppo (Syria), the nuns who were shot in Mississippi, the flood of Louisiana and the nun who was on her cell phone outside her damaged monastery in the earthquake in Italy – but no one knew their names. I created the quilt to memorialize the events and bring their names forward. They were real people, suffering people. My thought was, 'let us not forget them.” She has also created a quilt from the written history of the University of Mary. “That quilt features five of the sisters who were significant in the growth and development of the university,” she said. “I want students to be able to walk up to the quilt and meet and know those sisters and the significant dates in our history.” Because of the attention her quilts have garnered, the School of Arts and Sciences at the University of Mary asked if Sister Nancy was interested in teaching an art course that would be taught like no other on any campus. “This class includes drawing, painting, writing on white cloth to tell a story and to quilt that cloth to preserve the art,” Sr. Nancy explained. “Students also researched and learned swing skills as part of the course. The most surprising thing for me is the heartfelt stories the students drew, painted and wrote about. They had fun in the course, but were also so proud that they could create something they loved so much.” Sr. Nancy indicates she feels the designs come from outside her own desire or vision. “Right now, I will continue to create as the Spirit moves,” she noted. “I finished a quilt about Uganda and the teaching experience there that I will have in July (2017). My most ideal outcome from my work is social consciousness. We just need to tell more stories.”
