CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS

The following testimonials have been collected from guest who have

experienced a step back 200 years with the West River Teamsters

Lewis and Clark Wagon Train.

Glenda Warman (Medicine Woman) and Peggy Clark, Waynesville, Ohio July 2005

“The Lewis & Clark Wagon Train that the West River Teamsters coordinated was a wonderful and memorable experience. We both appreciated the organizational effort that this event had to take. The attention to detail was great—Gloria even procured a new toothbrush for a forgotten one! The friendliness of the other guests, the quiet pride of the teamsters and their families, the landowners who allowed us to invade their space—all these people combined came together to provide a trip back into history that will stay in our own life’s history for a long time. Good food, good cheer, and great people and the beauty of North Dakota—it doesn’t get much better than that. Thank you all so much!”

Don and Joyce Kimpland- Tombstone, Arizona. July 2005

“We had a truly wonderful experience on our wagon train. The crew know their horsed and there was a variety of teams and wagons to try. We made life friends of some of the guests and wagon crew. There was not a boring moment. The scenery was spectacular and the evening entertainment was always great!”

Gunder – Washington July 2005 (has attended every Lewis & Clark Wagon Train)
“Only thing I can think of is – it’s a nice way to spend 4 days of a summer vacation.”

David B, - Gansezoort, New York

"we had a great time!  All of our kids really enjoyed it too, and its not easy to

please all of the ages we had along." (The kids 8, 11, and 15)  "It was great

to be able to go riding with my kids and the rest of our family under the big open

sky and prairie, and it's just the way it was back in the 1800's.  I enjoyed the

great expanse of North Dakota sky and liked being in country where there was

a building or a road insight.  The food was great, we all enjoyed the entertainment in

the evening, and the wagons were comfortable.  The whole trip was very well organized."

Elsie H and Grandson Louis - San Diego, California

"I think the very best part of the trip was the warmth, honesty and hospitality of the

Teamsters and guests.  Everyone was friendly and helpful to a couple of "city slickers"

I have fun memories of Gloria handing out suckers to everyone, of admiring the beautiful

horses, of camp fires and entertainment, of Foxy singing and playing guitar.  I have asked to

a program on my trip to a club that I belong to and I will be wearing my coyote tail !!"

Gary and Elaine N. - St. Paul, Minnesota

"Thank you for a great trip along the Lewis and Clark Trail.  Your efforts to

accommodate every ones needs and your spiritual leadership were greatly  appreciated.

It is a trip Gary and I will always remember !"

Gary Vinney - Garden Grove, Califonria

"Sometimes, while I was riding my horse along the wagon train, I'd watch the men

driving the teams and listen to the sound of the wagons.  150 years ago, the same kind

people crossed the plains.  For me, it was truly a way to touch the past.  It was also an

opportunity to be with the people from my home state.  As some one who's been away

from North Dakota for most of the last 20 years, I know what I feel when I am around

people from home.  It's intangible, but never the less real sense there's a warmth and

genuine friendliness in them.  They look you in the eye when they speak and take your

measure by what you do, not by what you say..... I met a lot of good people on that trip."
