Becoming an Outdoors-Woman is great experience

It came to my attention in the last couple of weeks that the Plains Pool was being filled late. Being a strong pool supporter for the last 30 years, this bothered me.

After our four children spent many wonderful years competing on the Plains Swim Team, I knew I had to investigate the late pool opening.

Smear campaigns, trust and the public good
The election season in Montana is off to a pretty rocky start, at least if civility matters to anyone. First the Montana primary election saw the “conservative” wing of the Republican Party defeat the “socialist” wing in a smear campaign pretty much unprecedented in my experience; then Republican State Representative John Sinrud took a shot at “environmental radicals and their pet politicians”, meaning Democrats. At least Sinrud was targeting the political opposition. I don’t recall reading of the Democrats eating their own, but just because it didn’t make the news doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.

Planting by the heart a Plains tradition

Melanie's (sports) column: Supportive community helps sports
High school sports are important to the community that supports them, this newspaper included. They are also important to the participating students, as it is commonly known that student athletes on the high school, or “prep” level usually do well academically. From covering sports this past school year, particularly basketball, I have seen the communities of Sanders County come together to support the sports, and the students that play them. As a journalist, and a small-circulation newspaper editor, this is pleasing to see. But the road hasn’t been a smooth one to drive.
