Exercise Center Wanted

darlene — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 21:42:19 +0000

I am looking for any ideas on how to get exercise equipment. We have many people who would use exercise equipment to help maintain better health, try to control weight, and hopefully get off medication. Right now the weather has been great to go outside, but once it gets cooler, people are stuck inside, no more exercise! We live so far from any gym and with gas prices being where they are, many are not able to go to a gym. All I would need is a few peices of equipment: treadmills, cardio machines, etc to get going. Any ideas out there? Any input would be appreciated!!

Tordon and Plateau are used in controling spurge. Milestone is used for the control of wormwood and Canada thistle. You must pre-order your chemical by calling 701-764-5593 (NDSU County Extension Agent) or 701-846-7374 (Dunn County Weed Officer). Deadline for ordering will be approximately May 10, 2008 and distribution will be late in May.

If you have questions about application rates you may call either number for help. We also would be glad to answer weed identification questions.

Persons who are aware of noxious weed infestations are encouraged to contact us so that appropriate action can be taken.

Dunn County also will be involved in bio-control for spurge. Sweeping and distribution will be mid to late June. We encourage landowners to come to the “sweep sites” and gather insects for their property. More information can be obtained from the County Agent or the Dunn County Weed Officer.
