Wildlife on the tundra and rock covered island includes ocean going...

Consider what movements you would do on a normal day - get into and out of a car, walk, lift and carry groceries, and interact with others. Two questions can reveal your risk. 1. Do you have...

It will then mutate, so that it infects as many more people creating a world-wide pandemic which as we have seen, has killed thousands. On September 21, 2020, Powder River County reported a single case of COVID-19. This quickly morphed into our High School, into Health Care workers and now has affected our most vulnerable in our Nursing home. Powder River County is now a...

Courtesy PR Extension Office The first in a series of three ReImagining Rural sessions turned out to be surprising for many participants, according to Powder River Extension Agent Mary Rumph.
