  • Putting Some 'Pep' in the Scotties' Step

    Gwendolyne Honrud, The Courier|Dec 1, 2021

    There is something about the music of a high school pep band that hits different. Glasgow is lucky to be home to one of the top pep bands around. Under the direction of GHS alumni Todd Truscott, the Scottie pep band brings a little something extra to every home sporting event they can – whether in the gym for basketball and volleyball, or out in the Scottie Field bleachers for football. "When you that school song roaring across whatever gym or football field or anything, it's very...

  • Graham Takes Over

    Gwendolyne Honrud, The Courier|Dec 1, 2021

    When the Glasgow Scottie girls team hits the court this season, fans will see a "new" face directing the team. Cami Graham has stepped into the head coach role. Graham, in the vein of successful coaches everywhere, sees her job as encompassing more than just the sport she coaches. She said, "We hope to create a positive, competitive environment for the kids to excel on and off the court." Graham takes over after five years as an assistant coach under former Scottie coach Travis Nielsen. She...

  • Record Warm Weather In Valley County

    Chris McDaniel, The Courier|Dec 1, 2021

    Valley County experienced a brief warm spell over the weekend, with temperatures expected to above normal through at least Thursday. The warm weather is not normal, Mark Avery, a National Weather Service meteorologist based in Glasgow, told The Courier Monday. "Not even close." The high for Nov. 29 is usually 34 with a low of 15, Avery said. "We are 52 right now, so that is an 18" degree difference. "Last year it was 40 for a high and 12 for a low," Avery continued. "The high was six above...

  • Man Arrested for Allegedly Unlawfully Shooting Firearm Downtown

    Chris McDaniel, The Courier|Dec 1, 2021

    A Glasgow man was arrested Nov. 24 after allegedly discharging a firearm in the downtown area. At about 10:34 p.m., a witness called 911 to report gunshots fired somewhere near Campbell Lodge and the Oasis Bar. Another witness identified the shooter as William Hoerster. Dispatch kept the caller on the line until two Glasgow Police officers and three Valley County Sheriff's Deputies arrived on scene. Police and deputies found Hoerster driving his pickup truck on Aiken and Hagen Roads southwest...

  • Hi-Line Hunt

    Gwendolyne Honrud, The Courier|Dec 1, 2021

    Going into the Hi-Line Sportsmen's Hunter Mentoring Program, Andrew McKean asked which type of hunt I'd like to do. My selection was deer as it seemed to me to be a perfect entry level hunt. Then he asked which type of deer I'd like to go for – whitetail or mule – as each came with a different style due to the habits of the animals. Wanting to get as much experience as possible for story purposes, we decided it would be best to try my hand at both to compare and contrast. After my...

  • After 18 years, St. Mary/Milk River project receives large appropriation

    Marko Manoukian, St. Mary Rehab Group|Dec 1, 2021

    On Nov. 18, 2003, Lt. Governor Karl Ohs convened a meeting in Havre to raise awareness of the urgent need to rehabilitate the aging St. Mary Facilities of the Milk River Project. On Nov. 6, as part of the Federal Infrastructure bill, the St. Mary/Milk River project will receive $100 million in funding. "It would be nice for a project that provides water and food to stand on its own merit, but the appropriation is fantastic" said, Marko Manoukian Co-Chair of the St. Mary Rehabilitation Working...

  • 'Guilty of Being White'

    Chris McDaniel, Courier Publisher|Dec 1, 2021

    Just after the mostly peaceful protest at the nation's Capitol Building on Jan. 6, for the first time in my life I felt unsafe in my own country. Not because of the hordes of disgruntled American citizens protesting the presidential election, or their breeching of the federal building, but because many media outlets used it as justification to figuratively attack people just like me. I am a white male conservative, and a protestant. I am also a dad, so that automatically makes me a part of the... Full story

  • Milk River irrigation System

    Shirley Ball, Nashua|Dec 1, 2021

    For many years, my family has had farm land under the Glasgow Irrigation District. That is part of the larger Milk River Irrigation System that brings water all across the Hi-line, over 700 miles from the Mountains to the irrigated acres in Blaine, Hill, Phillips and Valley Counties and to many cities and communities for their drinking water. A structure on that system at St. Mary failed some years back. The Bureau of Reclamation has been working to get it properly repaired. I, and I am sure... Full story

  • OP-ED: Vigilante Justice

    Jim Elliott|Dec 1, 2021

    Does the acquittal of Kyle Rittenhouse, who was accused of murdering two men and wounding another at a protest in Kenosha, Wisconsin, broaden the way for Americans to take the law into their own hands? Can individual Americans, by claiming that they felt their life was in danger become judge, jury, and executioner and not worry unduly about the consequences? This raises a question, if the law is a matter of personal interpretation, who can you trust? Imperfect as it is, the American legal system... Full story

  • OP-ED: For Christmas, How About an End to the War on Marijuana?

    Thomas L. Knapp|Dec 1, 2021

    You've seen the headlines. So Have I. For example, a November 23 story in my local paper (the Gainesville, Florida Sun) : "Gainesville man charged with murder for Sunday shooting in dispute over marijuana deal." It wasn't a huge marijuana deal. It was a $180 sale. The seller apparently shot a buyer who tried to drive off without paying. Other common headlines of the "police blotter" variety include people put in handcuffs and hauled off to jail for buying, selling, or possessing a common plant.... Full story
