To the Editor:
As the World’s Only Corn Palace present building is 100 years old this year, we would like the Corn Palace Committee to reconsider the circus murals and instead use murals representing the century of this Corn Palace’s existence. We understand the murals will be in place through the summer of 2022.
The Palace’s greeters, tour guides and video explain the origin of the three Mitchell Corn Palaces starting in 1892. The timeline along the halls of the Corn Palace is very informative for anyone who takes time to read as they walk into the auditorium.

The Jamestown Sun hands out these bravos this week:
Bravo to Jamestown Public School District for adding aviation, drone technology and water safety courses to the curriculum next year. The aviation class and drone technology will be taught in alternating years and give students a chance to explore high-flying technology and the careers that may result from that technology. The water safety class, taught every year, can help alleviate the unfilled demand for lifeguards in the pools of the region.
Bravo to the folks at Cold Creek Buffalo Ranch for donating Moose, a new herd bull, to the National Buffalo Museum. Moose will add needed genetic diversity to the bison herd at the National Buffalo Museum.
