I work for Cultural Homestay International and place foreign students in volunteer homes. We are placing a Brazilian boy in the area and I wanted to see where he was going. It looks like a warm, close knit and caring community. I trust he will do great and bring a different culture to the area.

Andrea Colson (Krueger) from Onida, SD
Found this site as I was researching the camping facilities at Hoffer Lake. The folks (Ronnie and Dororthy Krueger) are less than a mile from the lake and we were interested in staying at the lake over the 4th of July. What a great town to grow up in! When looking for a house in the Pierre, SD area, we chose the farming community of Onida (30 miles north of Pierre, SD on Hwy 83) due to its small town feel. It reminded me a lot of McClusky and I really wanted my kids to experience that way of life. Our church is very much like my church back home, as well, (Grace Lutheran). For all you snowbirds traveling Hwy 83 south, we are the brick house 9 miles south of Onida. Stop in on your way through!

It was really special being "home" for the centennial this summer. It brought back many great memories related to our family that has ties to McClusky since my grandfather came there in 1904. Thanks to all who worked so hard at making this such a very special time. We truly felt at home. It was most special that God was given a significant place in it all. Truly that is the heart of America.

I've recieved my copy of the McClusky History Book and also the enrollment record of all who have attended the McClusky School system. Many names appear that bring back memories of the times I had while living in McClusky. Many of my old friends are gone now, but I still enjoy all the records that the Centennial Committee put together. You did a great job. Especiallly thanks to Kirsten for all the effort she put forth to make the Centennial a great success.

Hi everyone, What a neat website! I grew up in McClusky (1950's) and whenever I tell my friends about all the fun things we did and how nice the people and the town were, they say it sounds like I had a storybook life. There were the band concerts, the Old Settler's Day parade, the carnival, ice cream sundae's at the drugstore, Saturday night movies, and of course the highlight for our family was my Grampa Schaeffer's 4th of July Birthday party.

Congratulations McClusky on your centennial. Despite the fierce and brutal winters you are a survivor. Also congrats to Fred Bentz (nearly a centennial). We hauled bundles together a little more than a half a century ago. He was a hard man to keep up with. MHS 1951.

McClusky may be a small town, but if there's one thing I have learned from going off to college, it's this; It's not a disadvantage to grow up in a small town. The people that I grew up with are irreplaceable. We had so many good memories that when I think about McClusky I can't help but smile! Everyone's a big family in McClusky, whether they like it or not. It's like a safety zone for me because it's the one place I don't get lost! How many other places can you give directions by simply pointing your finger?
