Home on the range: American Bison
This year a photo vacation took me to the National Bison Range south of Flathead Lake, Mont. It is a 173-mile drive from Bonners Ferry, about a 3-and-a-half hour trek. Theodore Roosevelt established the National Bison Range in 1908 to provide “for a permanent national bison range.” The refuge is also home for a host of other mammals, birds and plants. The diverse habitats found here provide for the specific needs of many different animals.

Village Project Wants Hobbyists
After two great years of fun, the Village Project is gearing up for a third summer of enjoyment for our young English Language Learners, and its success relies heavily on the interest and involvement of Boundary County citizen volunteers. The project was formed in 2015 to bring summer activities to the children of seasonal workers at Elk Mountain Farms. These kids have been isolated from the summer opportunities offered in Bonners Ferry due to lack of transportation into town. Named for the African proverb “It takes a village to raise a child”, the all-volunteer staffed summer activities program promises to be even better this year as it enters its third year, now in partnership with the Boundary County School District. Do you have a skill or interest to share?

Clarence, the guardian angel
Is there no greater classic old movie than “It’s a Wonderful Life” with Jimmy Stewart? Remember the story? George Bailey had to take over the savings and loan after his father died. All of his big plans to travel and see the world were reduced to the size of the small town where he was born and raised. Then when mean old Mr. Potter stole the money that George’s forgetful uncle was trying to deposit, and the bank examiner was on his way to the savings and loan, it looked like George was going to lose the savings and loan and also go to jail. George, thinking he was worth more dead than alive, jumped in the river to kill himself.
