News
This is the rubric under which we report recent, current,
and upcoming activities. "News" contrasts with
community cultural history, found by clicking on communities
located on the Map, French Heritage
in the Midwest of the United States:Map 1 The Red River
Valley of the North and North Dakota. "News"
is now, whereas Community information is more historical
in orientation. So, voilà des actualités (here's
some news). Don't forget, by the way, that you can switch
to French any time on this site.
