For more than 115 years, Dakota Western Bank has been committed to serving the communities of southwest North Dakota. This sponsorship reflects the bank's long-standing commitment to investing in the community and in the students who will help shape its future.
"We've been proud to be part of the Bowman community for many years, and we wanted to give something meaningful back," said Duane Bowman, President and CEO of Dakota Western Bank. "Our school is at the heart of this community. Great teachers provide the foundation in the classroom, while athletics, activities, and student organizations build character, leadership, discipline, and teamwork. Together, they prepare young people not just for careers, but for life. We're proud to support a project that will strengthen those opportunities and benefit students, families, and our community for generations."
The new digital scoreboards will enhance athletic competitions, school activities, and community events while creating new opportunities to recognize student achievements, celebrate school pride, and support student-led media production.
"We all remember the excitement of Friday night football games, regional track meets, basketball tournaments, concerts, pep rallies, and so many other school events," Bowman added. "Those experiences bring people together. If we can play a small part in creating those moments for the next generation of Bowman County students and families, then it will be one of the best investments we could ever make."
Tyler Senn, Principal and Athletic Director at Bowman County School, said the scoreboard project represents an investment that extends well beyond athletics.
"Bowman County School is excited to launch our scoreboard project and grateful to have Dakota Western Bank join us as our Bulldog Championship Partner," Senn said. "This project is about much more than a new scoreboard. It will create educational opportunities for students through video content creation and media production while generating new revenue to support extracurricular programs. We're excited to partner with Dakota Western Bank and, in the future, other local businesses as we build a sponsorship program that will invest in Bulldog activities and create opportunities for students for years to come."
Dakota Western Bank appreciates the leadership of Bowman County School and everyone working to make this project a reality. The bank is honored to partner with the school and the many community supporters helping invest in the future of Bowman County.
