Bear Paw Winter Sports about to open

Anyone who wants to hit the slopes this winter, but is lacking the gear to do it, can rent seasonal equipment from Bear Paw Winter Sports in Havre.

Operated by volunteers from Bear Paw Ski Bowl, the rental place can set up an appointment for fitting and rental for individuals and for families. The first fitting day is Friday, Nov. 27, with time slots from 1 to 6 p.m. Just get on the Bear Paw Ski Bowl Facebook page and send a message with the number of people in your party to arrange a time.

Organizers said appointments are being filled first come first served, and masks are required.
