Defeat of Jesse James Days

4 HISTORY

“Get your guns boys, they’re robbing the bank”

The Town T

At roughly 2:00 p.m., September 7, 1876, eight men rode into town, intent on robbing the First National Bank of Northfield. It would later be called a textbook James-Younger bank robbery, and it began with three members of the gang entering the bank and announcing that it was a holdup. The three desperados ordered three bank employees to open the safe, but were told the vault was locked and couldn’t be opened.

The battle lasted only seven minutes, but when it was over two robbers lay dead in the street and two more were badly wounded. Six outlaws fled south, and the largest manhunt at that time in U.S. history ensued. The Younger brothers were captured and Charlie Pitts was killed near Madelia, MN. Jesse and Frank James escaped the posse and made it to Missouri.

The heroes that day included J.S. Allen, A.R. Manning, Henry Wheeler and others. But the biggest hero was Joseph Lee Heywood, who died because he would not open the bank vault and betray the trust of the bank owners and his fellow Northfield citizens. It is the extraordinary courage of these townspeople that we honor on the weekend after Labor Day each year during Defeat of Jesse James Days.

On the street, local citizens began to arm themselves when a merchant discovered the robbery in progress. Upon their discovery, two gang members sprang to their horses and began shooting and yelling at the townspeople to leave the street. This forced the other three robbers into the fray.

The first to fall was a Swedish immigrant named Nicholas Gustafson, who remained on the street because he did not understand English.

Northfiled Arts Guild

8 ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

Northfield loves its art. It’s everywhere. From its nationally-recognized liberal arts colleges to the half-century old arts guild, from sidewalk poetry to local art displayed in city hall, Northfield residents can’t get enough. Why don’t you join us and appreciate some of the finer offerings of life?

Sidewalk Poetry

Riverwalk Market Fair

Take one stroll through Northfield, Minnesota, with its many sculptures and sidewalks engraved with poetry, and you’ll know you’re in a place where the arts take center stage. Whether you’re inclined toward cultural museums and fine art galleries, upbeat music and live theater, or simply discovering the innovative creations of true craftspeople, Northfield has it and can’t wait to share it with you.

Northfield Arts Guild Let’s start with the most obvious entry on this list. The Northfield Arts Guild, founded in 1961 by artists of various disciplines, is the purveyor of all-things artsy in the fair town of Northfield. And The Guild is far from a one-trick pony.

The Northfield Arts Guild offers more than 100 events annually and 40 weekly art classes.

From art galleries to exhibits, from classes to dancing, from theater in the Northfield Arts Guild Theater to theater in Central Park, there’s a little bit of everything offered by The Guild for a fan of art. In 2013, more than 1,200 local artists’ work was exhibited, more than 400 students took classes and 31,000 people passed through the doors of the Northfield Arts Guild.

Carleton College Carleton College’s arts calendar is nothing short of exceptional, featuring a wide array of concerts, film screenings, and theater productions.

Also, be sure to check out Carleton’s Perlman Teaching Museum, which emphasizes the role that art plays in posing questions about life. The museum offers two impressive galleries and fully equipped support space.

St. Olaf College Across the Cannon River to the west stands historic St. Olaf College, where the performing and visual arts are a big deal. St. Olaf embraces music, theater, dance and the visual arts. If you can score tickets, the renowned St. Olaf Christmas Festival is an experience that can’t be described. The show is so revered, it airs annually on Twin Cities Public Television. Elsewhere, St. Olaf offers a vibrant art showcase and is well-known for its innovative theater productions and dance performances.

The Flaten Art Museum is a must visit for an art lover.

Sidewalk Poetry When walking around Northfield, don’t forget to look down or you might miss the city’s famed sidewalk poetry! The Arts and Culture Commission launched the Sidewalk Poetry Project in 2011.

Each February, a competition is held whereby local residents may submit up to two short poems for consideration.

Beginning in May, the winning poems are installed in sidewalks throughout the community, followed by a celebratory Capstone Event held the third Thursday of August in Northfield’s downtown Bridge Square.

Riverwalk Market Fair The Northfield area is full of talented artists and artisans. Each Saturday morning, from May through October, Bridge Square in the heart of Northfield is turned over to vendors and a rotating list of musicians who kick off the weekend with warmth. From handmade jewelry to woodworking, pastries to produce, and a guest musician each week, the lovely Riverwalk Market Fair is always a treat to peruse and enjoy.

Northfield Sculptures When you’re not looking down at Northfield’s sidewalk poetry, simply look around and you’re bound to see the many beautiful sculptures placed around town.

Out and about on the town The historic Carnegie Northfield Public Library, recently renovated and heralded as the best public library in the state, by WCCO viewers, is art in itself through its architecture.

Inside, a wonderful literary collection awaits. Outside, a rotating sculpture created by high school students can be found on the corner of Division Street and Third Street. If you make it to Northfield City Hall, enjoy the rotating works from local artists. It truly is a citywide effort and appreciation.

Local Venues with Live Music Live music can be found almost every day of the week in downtown Northfield. From Irish, jazz, and bluegrass jam sessions to piano balladeers and original indie rock, there’s something for everyone.

Head to the Contented Cow to catch performances at their indoor or outdoor stage. You’ll find the Tavern Lounge, Froggy Bottoms, Imminent Brewing, and Tanzenwald Brewing Company rocking most weekend nights.

Sledding hills on either side of the Cannon River Nerstrand Big Woods State Park

42 RECREATION

Most folks are aware of the two prestigious colleges that anchor Northfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s east side (Carleton College) and west side (St. Olaf College). But did you know both colleges sport outstanding hills for premium sledding?

For years, locals have taken advantage of the easy-to-access hills to wear out their kids and get the best sledding south of the river. Head over to Old Main at St. Olaf (off of Lincoln St. S.) or Bell Field at Carleton (east side of campus) to sled the winter away. Enjoy it while you can, because the trek up the hills will catch up with you.

Snowshoeing

Snowshoeing trails are abundant when snow conditions are right. The natural lands at St. Olaf College and the Arboretum at Carleton College are great spots right in town, or head out to nearby Caron Park, Nerstrand Big Woods State Park, or River Bend Nature Center.

Snowshoe rentals available from The Gear ReSource

The homes and neighborhoods of Northfield are a fascinating blend of the historic, traditional and contemporary; and new developments have remained sensitive to facilitating community connections.

Close to the city center you will find tree-lined streets and predictable lots completing John Northâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original, orderly grid plat design. There are stately, 19thcentury homes that stand as a testament to the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prosperity and optimism as it came of age. There are more modest, but no less romantic, two-story homes, many with sprawling front porches that promote neighborhood conversation. The homes have been well maintained.

Many have been restored to their original design, and others have been gracefully adapted to suit contemporary living patterns.

44 HOUSING & ECONOMY

The growth in the latter half of the 20th century produced a new look with the custom-built ranch housed placed along curvilinear streets and cul-de-sacs as the city gradually expanded its borders.

In more recent years, there has been the rapid addition of large, distinctive homes that favor threecar garages, first in developments east of town and more recently on the northwest edge of town.

There have also been a number of town home and twin home developments that have proved popular with empty nesters, retirees or single professionals; and apartments are located throughout the community.

A number of area communities are considered part of Northfieldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extended family. They offer a more intimate, cluster lifestyle that combines country living with the benefit of nearby neighbors.

Northfield is home to two public and private schools.

Strong Public Schools

Private Schools

The Northfield School District has a reputation for offering strong programs in academics, the arts and athletics from elementary grades through high school. The district offers half-day or all-day kindergarten programs, a pre-school and Early Childhood Family Education opportunities. The district has a state-of-the-art Northfield Middle School and the high school offers a strong college preparation curriculum, including Advanced Placement courses and a Senior Honors program in which seniors can take courses at either St. Olaf or Carleton colleges.

St. Dominic’s Catholic School is accredited and has full-time students in kindergarten through sixth grade. Seventh- and eighth-graders participate in a shared-time program with Northfield Middle School.

Educational Alternatives Also included within the district are two public charter schools: Prairie Creek Community School, which serves students in grades kindergarten through fifth, and Arcadia Charter School, a school that serves students in grades six through 12. The district also boasts an Area Learning Center, open to the public.

For more information about Northfield’s public schools, call 507.663.0600 or visit www.nfld.k12.mn.us/.

For more information, call 507.645.8136 or visit school. churchofstdominic.org/.

Home to Two Colleges From its earliest days, Northfield has been home to two outstanding liberal arts colleges. Northfield College was founded in 1866 and changed its name to honor a benefactor, William Carleton, in 1871. Today, Carleton’s enrollment is around 2,000 students. The St. Olaf School was formed in 1874. Its original purpose was to educate Norwegian immigrants and prepare them for life in the new country. Today St. Olaf’s enrollment is approximately 3,100.

ST. OLAF COLLEGE Located on the west edge of town atop Manitou Heights, St. Olaf’s campus offers an impressive view of Northfield and the Cannon river Valley. St. Olaf hosts many events that are of interest and open to the public, including athletics, lectures, performing and visual arts. St. Olaf is home to the annual nationally televised St. Olaf Christmas Festival.
