Field trips were a great option to get Fargo’s children exposure
in the world. They have traveled to the Black Hills, to DeSmet for the
Ingalls family history, visited Spirit Mound, the Music Museum in
Vermillion and day trips like Cemetery Walks around the area. Game,
Fish & Parks in Nebraska and South Dakota offer many programs
and educational opportunities for youth, which they enjoy as a family
Fargo said.
“Sometimes one misses all the great activities we have in this area
which can be used for education,” Fargo said.
Fargo believes one of her best decisions was the move to become
involved in the theatre in Yankton – not only for herself but for her
children.
“My kids just love performing and they seem to be thriving,”
Fargo said. “Giving a speech in front of your brothers and sisters is just
not very exciting so the social aspect is really good for them.”
Even Fargo’s youngest cannot wait to be able to go on stage and
perform. Over the years, the Fargos have been involved in 4-H
and Library programs in Yankton and Vermillion but working in
performances at Lewis & Clark Theatre has been a very positive
experience.
Being the director of the Lewis & Clark Theatre has also been
a very positive experience for Fargo as well. “Every day is different
and it’s exciting to move from production issues to scheduling to
conducting a capital campaign for fundraising,” Fargo said.
Fargo’s second part-time job is also at a place dear to her heart – a
bistro café in downtown Yankton. She said she spent so much time
there because the atmosphere suited her so well, the owner finally said,
“Here, put on an apron and help out.”
Fargo’s teaching career was put on hold when her family started
arriving but recently she began volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club
in Yankton. She works in the STEM program, building with Legos and
constructing robots.
“I love it; working with the kids is exciting and I rediscovered why
I wanted to be a teacher,” Fargo said. “You never know where life is
going to take you.”
And Fargo is looking forward to the next great adventure. n
