This video from the small Yupiq Eskimo Village of Quinhagak, Alaska , was a school computer project intended for the other Yupiq villages in the area. Much to the villagers’ shock, over a half million people have viewed it. And now it’s available for visitors to truedakotan.com

New church sign

Sep 26th, 2010

THE SPRINGS MINISTERIAL Association decided to replace the old “Churches” sign that stands prominently along Dakota Avenue South near the city park swimming pool. The paint was peeling and the wood was rotting. They commissioned multi-talented Katie Hine to do the artwork that lists eight churches (seven in town and one in the country) and their weekly time of worship. Pictured above are the sign’s installers, Pastor Don Grubb on the left and his grandson Kaelub Grubb. Don’s son and Kaelub’s father, Spencer Grubb (not pictured) also helped with the installation.
