The Voyagers International group was formed in Colorado over 40 years ago to bring the musical talents abroad. According to their website, 32 states participate in musical tours and they have sent over 160,000 abroad since their inception. The North Dakota/Montana group has been operating since 2001 when they sent just over 100 students, this past tour included over 300. Joyce said she has been nominating students since 2005, and has sent over 15 students since she has started sending her musicians. She said it is a high honor to be included on the tour. “We nominate students that have good character, and are responsible but also are really good musicians,” Joyce said. “To get in is a really high honor, because that means your music teacher knows that you’re musically capable but also knows you’re a fine citizen.” Directors can nominate musicians in any one of band, choir, or jazz band.

Record Editor Typically a museum is all looks and no touching. But Dakota Buttes Museum in Hettinger is breaking that norm in an attempt to attract more of the community. As the museum season comes to a close in a few short weeks, Smith and the museum community kicked off the end of the year by inviting kids and students to partake in some hands-on demonstrations, based on the museum’s latest theme, ‘Women Homesteaders of the Northern Great Plains.’ The theme has been active at the museum since Aug. 5 and will run through Sept. 14. “Because of that theme, we create activities and events around that theme, so that the community and the young people, and people of all ages and a wider [range] community can come in and experience those things first hand.” museum committee member Bonnie Smith said. Smith said the theme was based on the display that was given to them by the State Historical Society. That theme was based

Elaine Lindgren, which tells the stories of women homesteaders in North Dakota in the early 20th century. The museum previously held a book discussion on the subject and will also be hosting a bus tour on Sunday, Sept. 4. On Friday, Aug. 26, the museum set up 10 different stations, based on life in the early
days of homesteading, and gave the students a real-life look at how simple things were done during tough times. The stations and their presenters included: Fermenting Vegetables (hosted by Abbey, Lily, and Jorgia Richards), Churning Butter (Violet Olson and Francis Nelson), Quilting (Val Braun and Anita Kirschman), Spinning, Weaving, and Singing (Eliza Loughlin and Lisa Harvester), Making Rope (Willard Ottman), Making Soap ( Jill Kerzman), Washing Clothes (Amy Sandqvist, Lily and Jorgia Richards), Cutting and Laying Sod (Robert Carr), Attending Country School (Ceil Anne Clement), Playing Games (Rachel, Moriah, and Gethsemane Miller and Jess Coreau). Students were guided from station to station by a group of volunteers of guides and hosts that included: Pat Buckmier, Sandi Nelson, Sandy Marion, Pat Mattson, Barb Luger, Carole Rosencrans, Richard Wyman, Rita Becker, Connie Were, Arlindo Seamands, Phyllis Emerson, Marge
