Germans From Russia Just another NDSU Library weblog

The 125th Anniversary at Leola, South Dakota with the GRHC displays for July 3-4, 2009, was a wonderful and rewarding outreach experience. We were most impressed with the response and the wonderful reception we received from the organizers of this outstanding event. Leola, South Dakota can be very proud of their excellent 125th celebration.
