In last week’s Historical Reflection, we incorrectly identified the little boy sitting on the Arctic Cat Kitty Cat snowmobile. The young man in the picture with Dairy Queen owner Stuart Jackson was Curt Everson, who won the snowmobile in a contest for local kids sometime in the 1970s. Thanks to Bev Wolke of Grand Marais, who remembers the excitement of Curt winning the little snowmobile.
