Time to start a new chapter – no, that’s not right. This all feels like a
new volume; as the story of the Bison goes on, there will be new sagas
and stories. We look at how the last book ended: three-time National
champs in football, a second appearance at the Big Dance in basketball
and softball, baseball, track and field all had great success. But the heroes
we knew are gone: Craig Bohl, Saul Phillips, Carolyn DeHoff and Gene
Taylor. Close that book.
Welcome to the Bison Story. A new beginning, with some of your old
favorites, new faces who will rise up and add to the story of the Bison. With
all that happening at the NDSU campus, even here at Bison Illustrated,
there are new faces and names, which will continue to bring you the Bison
story. Mike Dragosavich is still our leader and Joe Kerlin, a true Bison, is
our editor. Now add myself into the mix in the new position of Associate
Publisher for Bison Illustrated. What does that mean? Well, I’ll be having
more input and assisting with content, editorial direction of the magazine,
and continually looking for new and exciting opportunities to spread the
word of the Bison.
We are also excited to be taking Bison Illustrated across the state.
More copies will be printed and we are also expanding our website,
bisonillustrated.com. As we start this move across the state, quite a few
people are going to be doing extra work, and that is our distribution team;
they will be very busy. However, you can help! If you want Bison Illustrated
delivered to your city, give me a call or send me an email. I would love to
hear from the Bison faithful.
I want to also thank all the advertisers who have and continue to support Bison
Illustrated. It’s because of you that we can continue to grow. If your company
wants to be part of the fun, contact me for advertising opportunities.
It is time to put on your green and gold; it’s BISON SEASON! I will see
you all in the west parking lot of the Fargodome with my plastic tailgatingapproved Bison drinking horn. (And you can have your very own! Go to
oneherd.com today!)
