makes tour stop in PR
By Allison Olimb
of The Press
PARK RIVER, N.D. -- A U.S
House hopeful made a stop in Park
River on Feb. 9 during her tour
across the state to meet with
comnmnity and business leaders.
Park River Mayor Dan
Stenvold took Pam Gulleson of
Rutland, N.D., on a tour of the
community and highlighted area
developments including the new
elevator build, main street, and
Kringstad Ironworks.
Gulleson said her tour of the
state would take her through
Fargo, Mayville, Grand Forks,
Park River, Lakota, Devils Lake,
Spirit Lake, Rugby, Minot,
Burlington and Berthold.
During the stop at Kringstad
Ironworks in Park River, she said
that that her goal is to promote her
platform for jobs and innovation
strategy. She said that Kringstad's
is a perfect example of what she is
trying to promote -- local
innovators providing local jobs.
Her strategy focuses on
bettering the economy through
bringing jobs back to America and
once again promoting the "Made
in the USA" concept.
"America needs to be building
their equipment in America," she
said.
Gulleson plans to continue her
tour of North Dakota throughout
the year to talk about what is
working alld what is not
"These are the things you love
to see," said Gulleson of Park
River's development.
