There have been a lot of firsts in spring sports so far this season, and none of them have been good. And for the Havre High tennis teams, this weekend will bring another first. The Blue Ponies were set to host their annual Havre Invitational Friday and Saturday at the Bill Vaughey Memorial Tennis Courts, with Belgrade, Hardin, Lewistown, Cut Bank and Conrad in attendance. But with the forecast once again predicting cold and more snow, the tournament has been called off....
A vendor event at the Atrium Mall this Saturday will allow people to win prizes and buy items, while simultaneously raising money for and learning about programs for people on the autism spectrum. Cole Horinek, the event’s organizer whose son Donald is on the spectrum, said about 20 to 25 vendors are expected to show up Saturday and be set up at least throughout the main floor of the Atrium. “We are going to be spread out all around the main floor, there is going to be things going on possibly on all three floors as well,” he...
Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks is reconsidering its previous restrictions for boat access at Tiber Reservoir south of Chester, and wants people to let it know what they think. Invasive aquatic mussel larvae were discovered in Tiber in 2016, as well as evidence of mussels in Canyon Ferry Reservoir near Helena. Tom Woolf, aquatic invasive species bureau chief at FWP, said this morning that no invasive mussels have been found in Montana since, but invasive mussel DNA has been found in water from Tiber. “We’re not sure exa...

With the time constraints many families are under, the idea of making and enjoying a home cooked meal as a family may seem overwhelming or even an afterthought some, if not most, days. Would you believe me if I told you that you could have a nutritious meal on the table in as little as 20 minutes? With a pressure cooker, it is possible. Cooking time is reduced by 50 percent or more when using a pressure cooker as compared to conventional cooking methods. Sound too good to be...

Kathleen has been an advocate, standing up and fighting for Montanans on many issues, whether cancer patients, labor unions, Medicaid recipients, Native Americans, natural resources, outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, gun owners, landowners, farmers,...
Editor, I’m writing to express my sincere appreciation for the support and interest in our local Alzheimer’s Awareness Event that took place on Feb. 12th. Based on attendance, it is evident that Havre cares as much as I do about the affects of this devastating disease. Sadly, Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States; and of the top 10, it is the only one that can’t be prevented, cured or slowed. Thank you to Havre Daily News for helping me spread the word; there was a lovely article...
Editor, I am a 10-year-old fourth-grader. For the last year I have been learning how to target shoot with my gun. I have a .22 short rifle that is pink. My dad bought the rifle for me. I have been learning how to be safe with my gun. My dad has been teaching me. I am going to take hunter safety soon. I like target shooting. I might also hunt depending on the animal. I think people should have guns to hunt or target shoot with but not to be able to use them to shoot other people. I don’t think people should have assault r...
That iguana spit on me today. I stood below him, next to the wall in my front-patio courtyard, watching him soak up the sun. He turned his head, looked me in the eye, and spit. Well, that’s a fine howdy-do. No manners. But, maybe, like many a youngster, he had a valid complaint: “She looked at me.” There’s a pair of what I call teen iguanas, middle-sized, who sun at the top of that particular section of wall. You should see them skitter up — or down — a vertical wall. Yet,...

After a few weeks of practice and after already having their season-opening tournament canceled due to weather, the Havre High softball team will try its hand at competing again this Saturday in Lewistown. Yet, the Central A conference matchup, which is supposed to take place Saturday in Lewistown will only happen if the weather cooperates and right now that seems to be a big if. However, if the game is played, the Ponies and Eagles will get things started around 4 p.m., when...
