Eric Jacobsen, company spokesperson, told the planning board that they have looked at a number of other locations during the past few months. None have proved to be suitable.

Being born in Minnesota and growing up in a small town in the 30's, I'm sure I entertained myself in a very different way than kids of this era do.

Kids attitudes and expectations are completely changed from then, but it's been a lot of years since I grew up in the depression era when it was of no use to nag for anything. The money wasn't there. We thought everyone was on our financial level and most of them were. When I look back and really take a good look at how kids grew up, their life styles and the people they turned out to be, it wasn't too bad.
