Chemical Concerns

| October 4, 2007 11:00 PM

Regarding poisoning the lakes in the Jewel Basin, it's interesting there was no announcement to the public in advance. The Interlake hasn't even mentioned it. This is a very controversial topic and deserves as much exposure as possible. The public WHO OWNS THE LAND is kept in the dark until it's too late to gain any opinions. I would like to know more about successful trials of this method. I would like to know what happens to the osprey, the eagles who eat poisoned fish. I would like to know about amphibians and plant life nearby. Are they protected? Our greatest fishery, Flathead Lake, was ruined years ago, destroying the salmon in it by playing such games with Mother Nature. Here we go again?

Hats off to the Football Team

When the going gets tough, some just leave town. I appreciate and applaud each and every football team member that stayed and played together as a team in the face of adversity and a loosing season. With a team first attitude, the team will continue to play better, and will start to win again. The same philosophy can be applied to all sports being played at BHS. Thank you coaches and team members!!

P.S. Hey fans, don°¯t forget to thank a student athlete, coach, band member, etc., for his or her hard work and dedication to the team they are involved with. They are great!!
