St. Vincent De Paul's of Broadus has moved into their new facility at the old wool mill building – located between Henry Malley Memorial Library and Seabeck Pizza. The move, which came after nine years at the old location, came about because of several reasons. The roof in the old building wasn't in great shape, which caused some issues with water leakage. Additionally, St. V's was simply running out of space. The new building provides double the square footage, which will make room for more goo...

The Hammond/Hawks Home Schools are looking to raise money through an interesting route this fall, for their School Readiness Program. The Schools have teamed up with Schwan’s food delivery service to offer a chance to donate to the program. How it works is that anyone in the area who wishes to donate through the program simply needs to indicate that they would like to do so on their normal Schwan’s order. Heather Brownfield, who works with the School Readiness Program, explained the process: “You won’t be charged any more for your order and the...
"We had a good news/bad news week," Broadus Head Volleyball Coach Gordon Archer said of the Lady Hawks' last week of volleyball action. The bad news is that because a couple of players voluntarily ended their seasons early, which means Broadus is now below the threshold for a minimum number of players to play a JV and Varsity game. Thus for the rest of the season (and this past weekend vs Ekalaka), Broadus will only play a Varsity game. The good news for the team is that Jadyn Traub will start...

Despite causing three turnovers against Circle at last weekend's home game, the Broadus Hawks Football team wasn't able to overcome the Circle Widcat's offense. "Our defense struggled with tackles," Broadus Head Coach Ross Randall said of the game. On many plays the Hawks had a tough time bringing down their opponents on initial contact, allowing Circle to move down the field at a steady pace. "Circle's QB was tall, fast, and hard to bring down," Randall noted. In addition to their defensive...
Dear Billy, Unfortunately, I find myself forced to publicly respond to a recent situation regarding a complaint about passing a school bus. It has come to my attention that over the radio the Sheriff grossly misinterpreted a recent court decision I made. The statement falsely leads the public to believe the Sheriff can no longer write tickets by complaint for possible traffic violations because I said so. This is patently false and quite frankly extremely reckless and unprofessional at a minimum. To broadcast false interpretations of court...

An incident occurred along Hwy 59 last week, in which a set of govt vehicles passed a school bus, which was stopped to pick up students. A call was made over the radio about the vehicles, and according to Sheriff Drane, one of the vehicles was pulled over and given a warning. The other vehicle was not apprehended, as Drane said the driver could not be ID’ed in a line-up, and thus was not able to be prosecuted. The reasoning for this response, Drane said Tuesday, stemmed from a court case in Justice Court from around a month ago, where a t...
This time of year is called “flu season.” In the United States, flu viruses are most common during the fall and winter months. Influenza activity often begins to increase in October and November.

CDC recommends a yearly flu...

Eleven Senior Citizens boarded the Transportation Bus at 7 AM on Thursday, September 20th to tour ZooMontana in Billings. Everyone was eager to go on the trip as we put off going that far because of the road construction and the length of time to get there. Even encountering a little rain did not dampen our spirits. We met Marlene Grimm at ZooMontana at 10:30 AM and were off and running(well, almost). At admissions, we rented a wheelchair in case someone needed to rest, but still travel and...
