Why I oppose the Crevice Gold mine

As a resident of Jardine, Montana, where Dr. Werner proposes to explore gold mining, I oppose the Crevice Gold mine for three reasons:

1. People. We in Jardine know what it is to live with polluted land and water because of gold mining. Arsenic, cyanide, acidic run-off poisoned our land and water. Fish died in Bear Creek. Our garden soils still have to be tested before we can eat out of them. The mess from the last gold mine can never be completely cleaned up. There will always be a tailings pond.

Thank you, thank you, community and fans for the support for our boys and girls basketball teams this season. Seeing the gym packed with supporters meant so much to our student athletes and families. It has been many years since we’ve seen the lower bleachers packed, spilling onto our upper bleachers as well. It was heartwarming to see our Ranger Basketball spirit so alive. As a parent, I also appreciated seeing so many of our faculty and staff at the games. Your presence brought a grin to our kids’ faces. 

Professionalism saved a life

The Miles family would like to thank the 911 operator, the two responding deputies, and the ambulance crew for resuscitating Dan Miles twice after his heart attack on Tuesday, Feb, 9, and getting him from the ranch to Bozeman Deaconess in time. Their professionalism saved his life. The cardiologist told me the next day that it is very rare for anyone who has had the sort of heart attack he did to make it to the hospital alive, even in an ambulance. Gold stars to our emergency responders!

Trump for president?

Editor:

Are you ready for Donald Trump to be our next president? His popularity is helped by his pro-American stance and how he is standing up to the politically correct media who wants to tell everyone else what they can think and say.

Parents made boys freshman basketball season special

I would like to take this opportunity to thank the parents and fans who were involved in the success of our Park High freshmen boys basketball program this year. I feel very fortunate to have been part of such a hard-working and disciplined group of young men who were willing to do whatever it took to improve their game. The parents have done a terrific job in raising these athletes! I thank them for all the support and cheering from the stands. Without the help of our community and parents, our year would not have been so special.
