So it should be no surprise after such a stellar season that, the Blue Ponies were well represented on the 2018 Central A All-Conference team, with five A...

By Emily Mayer Action at the war front “over there” was brought home in the form of a letter published in a Kalispell newspaper and reprinted in the June 1, 1918 issue of The Havre Plaindealer.

The “scho...
We feel the change that GRIEF does bring when death stole our loved one. A friendship’s lost and yes, we grieve, a loss, a change, it’s done! Though most often Grief’s not discussed, somehow, we power through. We move along — we look ahead — just something that we do. Vulnerable and insecure, Dear Lord, I’m out of pep! Remind me, Lord, that You have plans, You’re with me step-by-step. We’ve lost ‘normal.’ We need new hope to keep memories alive. We need to find a new pattern, somehow, we will survive. New normal keeps sweet...

We are thankful and grateful that our mom showed us girls how to mend clothes and our daddy showed us how to mend fences, and You, Lord, show us how to mend relationships and You help everyone who has a broken heart. And we’re so thankful that Y...
Out our way, words have meaning. I am told that Saddle Butte was once called Bullhook based on a legend that the great gap in the butte was caused by a bull buffalo who just got tired of going around and tore a hole in the rock. Hence the creek that runs through what is now Havre was called Bullhook and the area of the town itself, before Jim Hill came along with the idea of building the Great Northern Ralway’s shops, was called Bullhook Bottoms. He insisted we change the name and so we became Havre, but that’s a dif...
