Known as the "Ashby Arrows", its sports teams' colors are maroon and gold. Each year, a local sporting group which calls itself "Coots Unlimited "—a parody of Ducks Unlimited—holds a fundraising event with proceeds to rebuild local wildlife habitat. A metal statue of a coot (a duck-like creature) was erected on the south border of the city.[12] Ashby is on the eastern fringe of the Red River Valley, which was carved out by ancient glaciers. As a result, it is nested in gently rolling hills and amongst many good fishing lakes, most prominent among them is Pelican Lake to the direct south of the city. Ashby was the boyhood home of author/illustrator Charles Smith-Dewey, aka Uncle Hyggly, who penned a regional favorite about a dairy farmer who filled in one Christmas for an ailing Santa Claus -- "Mr. Gonopolis And His 12 Holsteins -- A Christmas Story." The publishing company is called Wounded Coot Greetings, an apparent homage to the local sporting group.[13] Smith-Dewey is also co-founder and president of the Health Insurance Resource Center.[14] References1. ^{{cite web|title=2017 U.S. Gazetteer Files|url=https://www2.census.gov/geo/docs/maps-data/data/gazetteer/2017_Gazetteer/2017_gaz_place_27.txt|publisher=United States Census Bureau|accessdate=Jan 2, 2019}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://factfinder2.census.gov |publisher=United States Census Bureau |accessdate=2008-01-31 |title=American FactFinder |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130911234518/http://factfinder2.census.gov/ |archivedate=2013-09-11 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://geonames.usgs.gov|accessdate=2008-01-31|title=US Board on Geographic Names|publisher=United States Geological Survey|date=2007-10-25}} 4. ^{{cite web|title=2010 Census Redistricting Data (Public Law 94-171) Summary File |url=http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/tableservices/jsf/pages/productview.xhtml?pid=DEC_10_PL_GCTPL2.ST13&prodType=table |work=American FactFinder |publisher=U.S. Census Bureau, 2010 Census |accessdate=23 April 2011 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20110726025609/http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/tableservices/jsf/pages/productview.xhtml?pid=DEC_10_PL_GCTPL2.ST13&prodType=table |archivedate=26 July 2011 |df= }} 5. ^{{cite book|last=Upham|first=Warren|authorlink=Warren Upham|title=Minnesota Geographic Names: Their Origin and Historic Significance|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=ShcLAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA213|year=1920|publisher=Minnesota Historical Society|page=213}} 6. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.postalhistory.com/postoffices.asp?task=display&state=MN&county=Grant | title=Grant County | publisher=Jim Forte Postal History | accessdate=18 June 2015}} 7. ^{{cite web|title=US Gazetteer files 2010 |url=https://www.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/files/Gaz_places_national.txt |publisher=United States Census Bureau |accessdate=2012-11-13 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/64vfLAeJ2?url=http://www.census.gov/geo/www/gazetteer/files/Gaz_places_national.txt |archivedate=2012-01-24 |df= }} 8. ^1 {{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/programs-surveys/popest/data/tables.2017.html|title=Population and Housing Unit Estimates|accessdate=March 24, 2018}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.census.gov/prod/www/decennial.html|title=Census of Population and Housing|publisher=Census.gov|accessdate=June 4, 2015|deadurl=yes|archiveurl=https://www.webcitation.org/6YSasqtfX?url=http://www.census.gov/prod/www/decennial.html|archivedate=May 12, 2015|df= }} 10. ^1 {{cite web|title=American FactFinder|url=http://factfinder2.census.gov/faces/nav/jsf/pages/index.xhtml|publisher=United States Census Bureau|accessdate=2012-11-13}} 11. ^{{cite web|url=http://factfinder2.census.gov |publisher=United States Census Bureau |accessdate=2008-01-31 |title=American FactFinder |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20130911234518/http://factfinder2.census.gov/ |archivedate=2013-09-11 |df= }} 12. ^http://www.mnhs.org/places/other/roadside/images/bcootas.html 13. ^http://www.woundedcoot.com 14. ^http://www.healthinsurance.org/blog/author/admin/ Healthinsurance.org writers External links
