Park Superintendent Chad Edgar told the board that due to the quality of forage in one section of the...
The last time the Chinook Sugarbeeters played in an 8-Man playoff game was the 2015 state championship game. But after winning their fourth game of the season last Friday against Simms, the Beeters moved a lot closer to earning their first playoff berth in three years. Chinook, which hosted Simms at Hoon Field last Friday night, got an early safety and a 35-yard touchdown pass from Trajan Hannum to Karson Powell.

The money will go toward a 13th Street West mill and overlay project, which runs past the hospital through Highland Park. He added that the funds requested are not en...
Samantha Oliver, Havre High Volleyball Havre High junior Samantha Oliver has been a steady force on the volleyball court all season long.

She tallied nine kills, 14 digs, 12 assists and four aces in the huge HHS win. Oliver also paced the Ponies in assists in a tight loss to Great Fal...

The Havre city crew also was very helpful with the barricades and making sure we had everything w...
Editor, Just two days after my son was born, we found out that he had a potentially fatal heart defect. At 4-months-old we took him to have a procedure done on one of the valves on his heart. The valve will have to be replaced again, eventually. Luckily, thanks to Montana’s Medicaid we have access to good doctors and annual check-ups that are affordable. Currently, I have some security in knowing that when the time comes to replace the valve, we can do it and he will live. The thought of losing protections for people with pre...
This spring, we had a flood that did damage throughout my district, Senate District 14. The damage was in Hill, Chouteau and Liberty counties, plus three other Montana counties. This past week, the State Emergency Management Services folks, along with Federal Emergency Management Agency people, were in our area helping counties figure out the paperwork. I attended the meeting in Havre in the hopes that the new e-system, which is the way FEMA processes paperwork and payments, has been improved since I worked with it last. As...
