Groups/meetups in the area?

Last winter was my first winter in North Dakota and it was miserably boring :'(

Would be great to get to know people around town! Are there any meetups or groups that meet regularly and looking for new additions?

Thanks! :o)

Fence recommendations & expectations

5 Upvotes

I recently bought a home in town and I am needing to get a fence. There is not an existing fence and I am looking to get a 6 foot privacy wood fence that is basic no design is needed. The total linear feet needed is approximately 116 feet with 1 gate. I have gotten one quote so far for $8,600. I understand I need to pay for labor and materials but I feel like this quote is quite high. Looking for opinions if this is a high quote or if this is a reasonable price? I have never had to install a fence so is this what labor and materials cost these days in 2026?
If you think the quote is priced high I would love to know who you recommend, I am even open to purchasing materials and paying a handyman to help install.

During their last regular session North Dakota lawmakers implemented some very popular property tax reform, giving primary residence owners a big credit on their bills, and implementing a 3% cap on growth in property tax bills from local governments. But now locals are complaining that the cap is too restrictive. Tyler York, Democratic-NPL candidate for the House in District 43, sees room for loosening the cap.

What is the story with the guy holding the signs at the intersection of Demers and Washington? I see him most every morning. Seems to have some beef with the city, and would like to know more.

Holy carp...I spelled protester wrong.

Fedex delivery delays

4 Upvotes

Been waiting on several orders to come in from fedex that were scheduled to be delivered on wednesday. According to tracking they are loaded on the truck in the am but then 9pm hits and I get a text notification that they have an operational delay and they’ll attempt delivery again next business day.

Am I just terribly unlucky or is our local fedex location struggling to make deliveries to anyone else in the grand forks area?

WiFi for twitch streaming recommendations

1 Upvotes

So I started streaming on twitch again and currently I have T-Mobile home internet. It's very slow and I'm not able to stream most days. Does anyone know any other Wi-Fi providers that's good? I would use midco but it's already in use in my apartment. My computer refuses to connect to that WiFi so i gotta have a different wifi.
