Towner Community Club
We reached out for help and the Towner Community Club (TCC) responded.
They purchased the barbed wire and post connectors we needed to fix the lagoon and landfill permitters.
We told the TCC when we deposited the check and when the purchase was complete, we mailed them receipts. When the job is done, we will invite them to come see the work they made possible.
From the City of Kramer ... thank you TCC.


Daryl Kuhnhenn Memorial Ride
Over a decade ago in Rugby, it wasn’t unusual to see Daryl Kuhnhenn at any event dedicated to raising funds or helping others. He was a commander of the American Legion and commander of the (Veterans of Foreign Wars) VFW. He served in Vietnam. Point, he helped a large number of people, and communities. In his spare time, Daryl Kuhnhenn enjoyed riding his motorcycle. On a Sunday in mid-Sept. 2011, he lost control of his bike and crashed on State Highway 14 in McHenry County, passing away a day later. Inasmuch, the community honors Daryl with an annual memorial ride to carryon his legacy of giving. As of 2023, the organization has donated $153,000 to the region and has donated to the Kramer Skating Rink for years. We count these Legacy Riders as the best of friends a community can have.

First National Bank and Trust - Bottineau
The City of Kramer was able over a period on twenty years nursed a certificate of deposit and it achieved $45,000.00 in 2025. That CD paid outstanding repairs on the city lift station and the remainder is funding the rejuvenation of lift station. But, there was not enough money to pay for the electrical work. The Council approached the bank, whose origins began in Kramer over a century ago and they donated $2,000.00 to be applied to the electrical hookup. Once the work is completed we will hand carry a receipt showing payment using the donation and invite them to see the work.
From the City of Kramer - Thank you First National Bank and Trust of Bottineau.
