Bacon Ends, Not Baking Hens
from Black Gold Boom: How Oil Changed North Dakota Hosted by 2 below zero
In the last 60 years, Williston has seen its share of oil booms. And with each boom, come lots of male oilfield workers. In 1952, a group of oilfield workers' wives decided to form a social group called the Ladies Petroleum Club. They've been meeting monthly to share meals, play cards, host dances — all kinds of stuff. Audio portrait and photo by Laura Candler.
