There is a new website Guestbook entry from Jon Hanson of 425 16th Street NW, Minot, ND 58703. "I have an unusual request, and I thought that I would start here. I am looking for anyone that may have information on a centennial party that occurred in Max around the early to mid 70's. My father and uncle played in a band around this time called 'Raven', and they keep telling me stories about a show they did in Max, and I was hoping to track down some photos for gifts for them, as they have very fond of memories for them. I realize that this is probably something that whomever is reading this has no clue about, but maybe you would have a name of someone for me to call. Thanks for any help you can offer!
