Neil Flick is slowly acclimating to North Dakota culture, the avid fisherman already knows what knoephla soup and lutefisk are.

The state is new territory for Flick and his new store, Duluth Trading Co., which is now open. The retail store that features workman's and workwoman's tool and apparel lines, will have a ribbon cutting for the grand opening of its first location in North Dakota at 9 a.m. Thursday, March 22.

The new location, which already had a soft opening for the past week, will be working with professional lumberjacks from DLW Timberworks who will perform at free public shows at 10:30 a.m. and noon as part of the opening.
