David Uphoff - webmaster

David has incorporated into MinonkTalk many stories and photographs of Minonk's history to provide citizens with a sense of tradition. He remodeled a local historic building for the MinonkTalk office and collected various town artifacts which he now displays there in a museum-like atmosphere. For Minonk's sesquicentennial in 2004, he organized old photos into fifteen slideshows for public viewing, each related to a significant aspect of Minonk's past. This DVD may be viewed at the museum.

David was also instrumental in raising funds and building a beautiful pavilion for community use in Minonk's Westside Park to honor area veterans. It was dedicated during sesquicentennial festivities.

Mr. Uphoff has been involved in the computer industry since 1966, following his completion of an MBA at Oklahoma State University.
