<br />RAMSEY SENIOR CITIZENS
<br />
<br />The Ramsey Senior Citizens Club met for their Christmas
<br />party and there were 50 members and friends present to
<br />enjoy a delicious luncheon and Christmas activities.
<br />Among those present were Mayor Gary Reimann and his
<br />wife, Beverly, and Ramsey Lions Leo LeTourneau, Jack Kir-
<br />chner, Merle Mevissen and Lowell Beckenbach. The Seniors
<br />appreciate all that the local businessmen do for them
<br />throughout the year.
<br />The Christmas activities include singing Christmas carols,
<br />exchanging gifts and Mayor Reimann calling out the win-
<br />ners of door prizes.
<br />Thanks to all who came and helped make this a fun day.
<br />MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL FROM THE
<br />RAMSEY SENIOR CITIZENS CLUB

<br />A WORD FROM YOUR
<br />
<br />TREE INSPECTOR
<br />
<br />By: Bruce Bacon
<br />
<br />CITIZENS, SEASONS GREETINGS:
<br />
<br />On Monday, December 5, I was invited by the Northfork
<br />Homeowner's Association for an information program on oak
<br />wilt disease. Dr. David French, foremost researcher on oak
<br />wilt fungus and disease control, gave a slide show and in-
<br />formative talk. Jeannette Monear, Anoka County Extension
<br />Division specialist on oak wilt and pine tree diseases was
<br />also present. She invites residents with questions to call her
<br />at Bunker Hills Activity Center, 755-1280.
<br />If you would like to host a neighborhood meeting about
<br />tree care and tree diseases, brush chipping, burning per-
<br />mits and back yard waste composting/mulching, call Bruce
<br />Bacon, 753-5097 and he will help arrange a program for your
<br />neighborhood interest.
<br />Please remember, if you have dead and stressed pine trees
<br />from the summer, you should plan to remove them before
<br />spring. You may also need to thin out your dense stands
<br />of pines; this helps them respond to the drought. If you have
<br />trees larger than 6" in diameter, cut the trunks into 100"
<br />sections; they can be used or sold for poles and posts.
<br />Please feel free to call me at 753-5097 if you desire fur-
<br />ther information and recommendations.

<br />ANOKA/RAMSEY SPORTS CENTER
<br />
<br />On October 15, 1988, John Noard celebrated the grand
<br />opening of his new 3/4 million dollar Anoka/Ramsey Sports
<br />Center on Hwy. #10. The new facility contains 14,500 square
<br />feet of showroom, parts and service area. Anoka/Ramsey
<br />Sports Center is a dealership for Ski-Doo and Artie Cat
<br />snowmobiles, Kawasaki and Suzuki motorcycles and ATV's,
<br />and Jet-Ski and Sea-Doo personal watercrafts.
<br />The facility employs 11 full-time persons. All of the
<br />mechanics are Vo- Tech graduates who continually participate
<br />in manufacturer seminars and training programs to keep up
<br />to date on changing technology.
<br />Prior to purchasing Anoka Sports Center in 1986, John
<br />Noard was a professional motorcycle racer; driving, design-
<br />ing and building his own bikes. In just two years, John
<br />outgrew his 7,000 square foot facility.
<br />John is very enthusiastic about the new facility and feels
<br />it provides the customer with excellent access, parking and
<br />a quality environment for shopping and repairs. The move
<br />was a good one; his snowmobile sales are 3 times higher
<br />year to date than in all of 1987. Hard work and promotion
<br />skills have made AnokalRamsey Sports Center the largest
<br />Jet-Ski dealer in the 7 state area and the largest Sea-Doo
<br />dealer in the world. John's goal is to cater to his customers,
<br />offering a choice of quality products and the type of pro-
<br />ducts currently in demand.
