Mark escaped the bee unharmed to meet with McGruff the "Crime Dog."  This photo was taken during the Consolidated Telecommunications Company annual membership meeting at the Crow Wing County Fair Grounds.  Mark congratulated McGruff and his handler, Brainerd Police Officer Joy Larson, for their work in helping to prevent crime.  We thank them and the Minnesota Crime Prevention Association for their efforts to make the world a safer place especially for kids.  McGruff's favorite saying is, "Take a bite out of Crime."
