A small group of Havre High School students is spearheading an ambitious initiative that aims to teach character among all students so they may then spread its traits beyond the classroom and into the community. The Pony Print initiative - a microcosmic local aspect of the larger Montana Behavioral Initiative - is what school staff want all students to embody, be safe, be responsible, be respectful, be educated. Those four creeds are what Pony Pride is all about, teachers and...

Galatians 6:9 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. It is possible to get burned out, bitter, disgruntled, upset, agitated, angry, or exhausted when you are one of the primary caregivers for a loved one whether it is a friend or relative. The Bible encourages us to not become weary in doing good. I believe that that verse is in the Bible because it is definitely possible to grow weary when you are doing good. In order to fulfill this command to not become...
You know, Lord, autumn is a season of comforting scents. Can’t we just remember back when we were kids at home and got to go to Margie’s house? Sometimes she would serve hot apple cider to us girls, especially if we had helped fold the laundry, wash dishes or even mopped the kitchen floor. How about our Mom’s fresh-baked apple pie laced with cinnamon? Now that was yum! Or when we’d go to town and Auntie had a day off from working? She did make cinnamon rolls that we could smell before we even opened her front door. We were fa...
Out our way, the air is chilly but it is clean and fresh at last. For months we have cried out to the Lord for rain and then the fires came and filled the air. "Where is the Lord?" some asked. And then the clouds came and the rain began to fall. Fire crews rejoiced to see it as did farmers and ranchers. Cattle in the Beaver Creek were trailed in and began to wander the free range without fear of becoming roast beef. "Old Doc" Goliath seems pretty pleased and, between...
From North Star Schools It has been a month since hurricane Harvey made landfall and devastated Texas. Harvey wreaked havoc, destroying everything in its path and left so many with nothing. Being in Montana, we still felt the impact and our nature is to want to help. Montana Tech had a story in the news challenging all schools in Montana to donate any apparel they could spare and send it to the hurricane victims. After seeing the news clip, Brian Campbell, activities...

Summer 2017 has given the Hi-Line of north-central Montana reason for celebrating rain and welcoming it with great pleasure whenever it decides to fall, even if it happens to be parade day of Festival Days weekend. By the time the spokes in the wheels of the Festival Days parade began turning at 10 a.m. Saturday, rain had been falling for three days, a welcomed respite from a the drought that had decimated crops, emptied lakes and contributed to thousands of scorched Montana...
Big Sky Conference play is finally here. And Saturday couldn't be any bigger for both the Montana Grizzlies and Montana State Bobcats. In Missoula, the Grizzlies (2-1) will go under the lights to take on their second-biggest rival, the Eastern Washington Eagles. But, they'll do it without senior quarterback and team leader Reece Phillips. In UM's 56-3 blitzing of Savannah State last Saturday, Phillips, a fifth-year senior from the University of Kentucky, suffered a horrific...
When it comes to the Havre High football team, the best medicine to cure what ails it right now, would be a win. Unfortunately, for the Blue Ponies, they will have to travel across the state to Glendive to try and get it. The Ponies (0-4) and the Red Devils (2-2), who are each hoping to snap a losing skid, will meet tonight in Glendive in an Eastern A conference matchup. Kickoff is set for 7. "It's going to be another long bus trip," HHS head coach Ryan Gatch said. "So that is...
In what was their shortest road trip of the season, the Montana State University-Northern Skylights also played one of their shortest matches of the year. Fresh off their thrilling win over UM-Western last Saturday, the Skylights went to Great Falls in search of more, and they got it with a three-game sweep of the University of Providence Argos. The Skylights won inside the McLaughlin Center Thursday night, by scores of 25-18, 25-23 and 25-23. The win pushed MSU-N to 2-1 in...
The Havre High volleyball team has been playing matches for almost a month now, but tonight, when the Blue Ponies host former Central A rival Browning, it will be their first time playing inside the HHS gymnasium this season. Yet, tonight's contest with Browning won't be the only match for the Ponies this weekend, as HHS will also host Cut Bank Saturday in the second of back-to-back non-conference matches. "Coming off a win, I think they are going to be ready to go this...
The Havre High cross country teams may have more important meets than the Havre Invitational, but there are few races that both Blue Pony teams look forward to more than their home meet.

The meet will get underway at 11 a.m. The varsity boys will run at 12:20 p.m. followed by the varsity girls at 1 p.m. "I...
For the Montana State University-Northern football team, every Saturday is a chance to show the program is taking steps in the right direction. But after dropping 10 consecutive games dating back to last season, the best way to move forward, would be with a win. The last time the Lights tasted victory, it was over Carroll College, via a 28-14 win over the Fighting Saints last September. However, it has been more than a calendar year since MSU-N has found the win column, which...
Just about everyone in Montana loves high school football and if not, it at least seems that way. In Chester and the surrounding areas of Joplin and Inverness, that all comes together to form the Chester-Joplin-Inverness High School. And in Chester, there is no feigning a love for the game, or for the Hawks. "We get a lot of really great support," CJI quarterback Spencer Richter said. "Even if we aren't doing as well, like we aren't right now, people still come out and support...
Jess Krahn never liked watching football – from the sidlines that is. No, Krahn has always preferred being a part of the game rather than a spectator of it. And that's why, through even difficult times, Krahn has always wanted to do whatever he could do to play, to contribute to the Montana State University-Northern football team. And contributing has come in many different forms for the senior from Hockinson, Washington. Once upon a time, Krahn was Northern's starting q...
