Our story
December 2014
On a cold December night, three friends sat in a hot tub in a small North Dakota town and talked about how there was not much to do, and even fewer places to do it. They wondered if teen boredom was part of why underage drinking was so common in rural North Dakota.
2015 to 2016
Two years of bringing people together and hard work.
February 2017
The Penny House officially opened its doors to the youth of Harvey, with video games, table games, and space to just be with friends.
March 2020
After three and a half years in Harvey, COVID-19 and the move to online school led us to close our doors.
July 2020
We opened a temporary location in the Columbia Mall in Grand Forks, funded by a GF Mainstreet Initiative grant, and served the Grand Forks community until funding ran out in 2021.
2020 to now
We found a new home in an unused apartment above New Life on Main in Harvey. It still had bright pink and green shag carpet from another era! After four years of roadblocks and hard work by a small team, the space is fresh and ready for the youth of Harvey.
