Theodore Roosevelt Presentation

Tuesday, May 19, 6:30 PM, Fargo Public Library Community Room. A presentation
about Theodore Roosevelt---The Strenuous Life, by Rennae Gruchalla and Merrill
Piepkorn will be given. This presentation outlines the various areas of our 26th President
when it came to hard work and exercise. You may say how is this related to the NCT?
The story about TR becoming our 26th President definitely is connected to the NCT, but
you must come to our presentation to find how it’s related! He was a president that was
known for his Conservation Legacy. He established 55 Wild Life Refuges during his
Presidency, 230 million acres of public land, 150 National Forests,18 National
monuments, 5 National Parks, 150 National Forests and he established the U.S. Forest
Service.
Roosevelt was a major advocate and influencer of the sports culture in America, but did
not personally establish either the modern Olympics or the world series. His role was
about promotion, inspiration, and support of everything related to the strenuous life.
See you on May 19 th !
