BOTTINEAU IS GETTING A WAL-MART SHOPPING CENTER

There was rumor going around the Rolla/Bottineau area that Bottineau was getting a Wal-Mart. My brother works as a reporter for the Turtle Mountain Star and the Metigoshi Mirror and he was given the assignment to call Wal-Mart and get break this rumor. Well, Mike called the Wal-Mart head offices and Bottineau IS getting a Wal-Mart.

This shopping center is going to have groceries and a pharmacy along with the general purchasing items that you find at Wal-Marts and it sounds like the building is going to be fairly big.

Mike is concerned because he thinks that it's going to beat down a lot of the little rural stores in Bottineau and Rolla basically killing the town of Rolla. All of you that can, you need to check out the new issue of Metigoshi Mirror because the full article on the Wal-Mart will be in it.
