A Night of Garretson Stories (subscribers)

Date:

by Carrie Moritz, Garretson Gazette

The stories of Garretson are many and varied, and the stories from the people of Garretson are even more so. Kim Bartling and Kris Frerk brought those individual stories to the forefront last Friday during the Plains Speaking People: Dragon Tales event at O So Good.

The dinner and entertainment, for which the proceeds benefited Blue Dragon Academy, was hosted by Bartling, who is showcasing the individual stories of South Dakotans through her events “Plains Speaking People.” Dragon Tales is her third such event, and Bartling was glad to be “home.”

Bartling, who grew up in Garretson, is the daughter of Syl and Jan Schetnan, who owned and managed the Hairloom salon in Garretson for over 20 years. While Bartling says she couldn’t wait to get out of town as a youth, she continues to come back and relish the community, its sights, and its people.
