NW Minnesota high school students participate in NGP Youth Institute
Times Report
More than 40 northwest Minnesota high school students from Crookston, Grand Rapids, Ada and Barnesville attended the annual Minnesota Youth Institute, where students partner with UMN Crookston to get a global perspective on important challenges and connect with other students throughout Minnesota to improve food security and fight the battle on world hunger.
However, due to COVID-19, the Northern Great Plains Youth Institute originally scheduled to be held on the University of Minnesota Crookston campus was hosted virtually at UMN Twin Cities this past May. Being a scholarship event, it drew the interest of many. Students were fortunate enough to participate in the Twin Cities virtual event hosted in May.

Crookston Times
Crazy Days in Crookston is underway in and around downtown Crookston, with local retailers offering specials, bargains and other deals downtown and elsewhere, and other activities and festivities also being held throughout the day and into the evening.
This year’s Crazy Days theme is retro in nature, with “Crookston Vibes” a nod to life in the 1970s.
In addition to retailers offering bargains, there are food vendors and other booths and tables set up throughout downtown. The University of Minnesota Crookston has a table with UMN Crookston swag and other items in the lot immediately south of True Value Hardware on North Main. The Crookston Classic Cruisers have some vehicles parked there as well.
