The weather took a turn for the better last week and is still going strong. Temperatures were up, the sun was shining and golfers turned out in droves at area courses. Those droves included last week’s men’s league action at Prairie Farms Golf Course. Last Tuesday night saw Korb Construction take high-team honors with 25 points.

Once again — for now, at least — both sides of the border at the Port of Wild Horse north of Havre are planning to stay open the same hours. U.S. Customs and Border Protection announced Monday it would keep the summer hours at Wild Horse — open from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. — running through Oct. 31.

Fresh off of its last event, the board of Havre’s public museum is deep into the planning of its next major event, its participation in Havre’s annual Living History Day, slated this year for Saturday, June 1. One planned event is being tweaked — another celebrity will join one of the H. Earl Clack Museum’s newest additions for Living History. Gary Wilson, who chaired the Clack Museum Board’s meeting in the absence of board chair Judi Dritshulas, said Dritshulas will spice up that event. “It’s not just a tea party any mor...
