CONSTRUCTION PROGRESS

With a mild winter the team has made great progress on the building construction.

The concrete foundations have been poured shaping the outline of the building.

The slope for the green roof that you’ll be able to walk upon
is beginning to take shape.

And the walls of the theater where we will hold future library programs are nearly complete.

INTERVIEW WITH ROBBIE LAUF

TRPL’s Director of Programming & Partnerships, Robbie Lauf, sat down with KFYR-TV to discuss the future of the Library.

“Theodore Roosevelt if he was alive today would be confident that he would want to build it in a place that respects the land, that celebrates some of his biggest accomplishments … and his over two years spent in North Dakota was is was some of his most formative time.”

2023 BY THE NUMBERS

This month we released our 2023 Impact Report that highlights our progress last year for the Presidential Library.  We can celebrate some great achievements from our native plant partnership with NDSU to the economic impact that 75% of subcontractor work was contracted locally.

TAKE OUR QUIZ

April is Earth Month and we have a lot of content planned on our social media channels to highlight Theodore Roosevelt’s work as the “Conservation President.”  But how much do you really know what he accomplished during his time in office?

Take our quiz and test your knowledge!

DON’T MISS

Don’t forget about our two great media offerings.  The Rangers Wanted app is a wonderful game to play with your kids.  Compete in a series of animal challenges and learn important lessons about conservation.

The Good Citizen Podcast, hosted by Ted Roosevelt V, continues to have evocative guests who have dedicated their lives to public service.  Ted Roosevelt shares their stories and connects them to the legacies and ideals that his great-great-grandfather embodied.

Continue watching this space and social media profiles (X/Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, Linktree) to stay informed on everything from TR history to construction updates, podcast episodes, and more.
