Target and Wal-Mart, 1962


It's not just NKHS 62 celebrating 50 years this month.  In May of '62, unbeknownst to all or most of us, Target opened their first store in Roseville, Minnesota, a northern suburb of St Paul, and Wal-Mart opened its first store two months later in Rogers, Arkansas.  Little did we know . . .

When you leave the Target store and drive to the Senior Center, you may need some help in making the right turn.  Look for these signs.
