The Thompson Falls and Plains golfers had a successful Spring Break week, facing challenges and gaining experience. Last Tuesday they played at the Hamilton Country Club in the Darby-Florence Invite amongst nine teams. The course is 18 holes, which can be more challenging because of the amount of walking and with only one chance each hole. Blue Hawk Ellie Baxter placed second out of 30 golfers with a score of 93. "Addi Pardee and Aubrey Baxter experienced their first battle of the elements as...

They might be major league ball players someday, but last Wednesday they were just learning which way to run and having fun with no ambition to smack a home run or thrash the opposing team.

It was opening day for the Kitty Bears, sponsored by Blackfoot Communications and Team Speed, sponsored by Clark Fork Valley Hospital. Both teams were from Plains, which meant both...
It's been almost 10 years since the Hot Springs Junior High has been able to host a track meet, but on Friday six teams gathered to test their running, jumping and throwing skills at Hot Springs. One hundred and thirteen boys and girls from fifth to eighth grade for four and a half hours braved a cold, windy and snowy day to participate in the 15 events. Tammy McAllister, head coach for the Savage Heat Junior High team, said they haven't hosted a meet since 2014 because of the lack of equipment...
