Kathy Overby Paulsen and David Sayer discovered that sharing their memories of growing up in a small North Dakota town, Cooperstown, was fun. So, they worked up this site. Especially it features next to ours the vivid memories of Kathy's dad, Einar, who grew up on Cooper's main street. Thanks too to Ell Multer, Larry Skupien and Lorrie Skupien Currie who have submitted their memories. Thanks too to Larry Ellingson, David Lura and Dick Sharpe and Sandra Askelson, who have sent some of theirs too. We hope you enjoy these facets of Cooperstown as it was and just maybe....as it could be come again....memories can turn into visions...(with a nod to rural renewable energy solutions)...

Please view the contributions as fond looks backward. We re-vision a world now gone, full of magical places and unique people who were personally formative to each yet we can share as community.

As we receive memories of the main street and town of Cooper, we will put them up here! When this site expires in a year or two we'll offer a copy of it to the Griggs County Museum and/or Library for longer safekeeping and accessibility.
