Barbra Streisand to receive 2024 SAG Life Achievement Award

Barbra Streisand at BMCC Tribeca PAC on April 29^ 2017 in New York City.

Barbra Streisand will receive the 2024 SAG Life Achievement Award at the 30th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards, airing on Netflix on Feb. 24. Streisand becomes the 59th recipient of the tribute, following Sally Field (who received it during the 2023 telecast).

The SAG Life Achievement Award is presented annually ‘to an actor who exhibits the finest ideals of the acting profession.’  Streisand said in a statement: “Ever since I was a young girl sitting in the Loew’s Kings Theatre in Brooklyn, I dreamed of being one of those actresses I saw on the screen. The movies were a portal to a world I could only imagine. Even though I was an unlikely candidate, somehow my dream came true. This award is especially meaningful to me because it comes from my fellow actors, whom I so admire.”

Streisand has won two Academy Awards, 10 Grammys (including the Grammy Legend and Lifetime Achievement Awards), five Emmys and one Tony. She also just published her memoir, My Name is Barbra, which became an instant New York Times best-seller.

SAG-AFTRA president Fran Drescher said of her honoree: “Barbra Streisand is an icon and unparalleled talent, a force of nature who has seamlessly woven her brilliance through the fabric of our industry. From her earliest days captivating audiences on Broadway to her unforgettable roles in cinematic classics like ‘Funny Girl’, ‘The Way We Were’, and ‘A Star Is Born’, Barbra’s ability to inhabit her characters with authenticity is nothing short of extraordinary. Her enduring career is a testament to her genuine performances, connecting with audiences on a profound level. She is a colossal icon with a relentless work ethic, evolving with each stage of her remarkable journey. We celebrate Barbra Streisand not just for her achievements but for the enduring legacy she has carved.”

The SAG Awards will stream live for the first time on Netflix, taking place February 24th.

ICY ROADS CAUSING DANGEROUS TRAVEL CONDITIONS IN THE AREA

Crookston and most of the Red River Valley have been getting rain that has turned to ice as it hits the ground, including roads and highways. 

City of Crookston roads are literally a skating rink, and any speed will cause a car to spin out. Motorists on Highway 2 from Crookston to East Grand Forks have reported speeds of 20 to no more than 30 miles per hour because of the ice. If you don’t have to travel, stay home!!!
We have had several reports that East Grand Forks and Grand Forks don’t seem to have the ice like Crookston does. 
If you have to travel somewhere, make sure you go slow and give yourself plenty of time as the rain continues to fall and continues to ice over area roadways. 

Stay safe as this system continues to cover the Red River Valley with rain turning into ice.

Submitted road reports – 
Highway 32 and Highway 2, east of Crookston, are covered in ice. Speeds of 20 mph were reported.

CROOKSTON RESIDENTS PRESENT ISSUES WITH HOUSTON CLIFF EROSION AND FUTURE PLANS

During the city council meeting, which took place on Monday, December 20, Crookston residents who own homes near the bank erosion on the Houston Cliff gave a presentation expressing their concerns with the current state of their properties.

There are eight homes on the riverbank between Ash Street and Hunter Street, where the bank erosion on the Houston Cliff sits. This erosion has escalated over the last two years, with several homeowners losing six to eight feet of property over the past year. One home has lost 30 to 40 feet in the previous two decades, but it lost nearly eight feet alone last year. Residents fear that, at this rate, lots may start disappearing along with the homes. Seven homeowners have actively been pursuing answers and calling for help from any agencies that may have answers regarding the issue.

Crookston resident and one of the eight homeowners on the Houston Cliff, Margaret Harrington-Stephens, gave the presentation to the board and shared her thoughts on what she has experienced with her property as of late. “I grew up in that house on 263 Houston Avenue, and we used to have a walking path and steps down to the river where there used to be an area where you could go fishing,” said Harrington-Stephens, “Since the flood of 1997 when things started changing, and the city built the army court, and tearing down various homes to build up the dikes. That’s when it started chipping away, and one year, the entire fishing area was gone.”

The erosion has since climbed up to the Harrington-Stephens property, and she has now had to put caution tape in her yard where there is an immediate drop-off, which causes safety concerns. “Within the last three months, I have noticed more areas of ground disappearing,” said Harrington-Stephens, “The trees are there, and the roots are there because that’s the only thing holding the ground in place. Otherwise, it’s chipping away underneath, and that’s the concern: you can’t see, but you can feel it.”

Harrington-Stephens and other residents asked the council for help to get the benefit of government agencies to conduct a geo-tech survey and ultimately get grant funding for work that needs to be done. “We’ve been getting input from the watershed district, DNR, Polk County Soil and Water, and we know this is going to be a group effort,” said Harrington-Stephens, “This isn’t just city responsibility, this is more like ‘here we have a problem that affects the water quality’ which is also a concern with the watershed district.”

The Houston Avenue homeowners have developed a committee regarding these issues and have contacted several agencies. Government agencies informed the residents they could not do this alone and needed a local government entity to partner with any agencies that could assist.

“There is certainly some real concern from the residents and the city,” said City Administrator Corky Reynolds, “The city intends to help these residents identify funding sources that could potentially lead to a buy-out. It’s not for sure, but I think with the watershed’s involvement, perhaps the DNR, the city, and the state. It is possible we can help them reach their ultimate goal, which is a buy-out.”

CROOKSTON MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS DELIVER CHRISTMAS CHEER TO VILLA/SUMMIT RESIDENTS

The elves and students in Sue Wagner and Lacia Hanson’s WINN Season of Caring enrichment class (plus a lot of other Crookston Middle Schoolers) took on the challenge of making gnomes, ornaments, and cards for the 155 residents of the Benedictine Living Community-Crookston (Villa St. Vincent and Summit). “We’re so proud of these kids and their giving hearts,” said Sue Wagner. “We wish the kids could have delivered the gift bags and visited with the residents, but there is too much illness going around.
