That I don't know...the public high school team was the Minot Magicians.
We had a cabin on Lake Metigoshe up in the Turtle Mountains and we would
cross the border in our boat to buy Macintosh Toffee was at the Canadian
golf course.  The BEST...can you still buy that?  I'd love to get some!  My
folks spent a lot of time when they were young at Lake Kenosee (spelling)
in Canada...I once flew up to Flin Flon with my Dad and we caught the
biggest Walleyes...Wow, memories...Moose steaks the size of a plate,
literally hanging over the sides.

re: Minot

Slogan is also the "Magic City!" Any idea where that came from David?

Minot is 3 hours south of Brandon, 2 hours south of the Canada/U.S. border.

The joke here is "we're going to the United States for a southern
vacation!"

translation: We're "crossing the line" for a cheap over-nite stay at the
Days Inn in Minot, and will return with a couple dozen Baby Ruths and
various other candy-bars we can't buy in Canada.  :>)
