Are you ready for spring? Would you like to try something different? The Fort Peck Senior Citizens are sponsoring a fun walk/run across the face of Fort Peck Dam on Saturday, March 21st. It is called “SLAM THE DAM” (Run with the Wind). This is a non-competitive walk/run; no times will be kept. On the morning of March 21st, the committee members will decide which direction the walk/run will go—depending on which way the wind is blowing that day.

That means that hopefully, the wind will be at your back, if at all! Watch for signs as you arrive to see from which side of the dam the walk/run will begin. You will be driven back to your car when you complete the walk/run. Every participant receives a finish souvenir. Water and fruit will also be provided. Cost of the walk/run is $5.00 a person—and the event is for ALL ages. Bikes or dogs are NOT welcome. Registration will be from 9:00-10:00 that morning—no pre-

registration is needed. The walk/run starts at 10:00. If you are under the age of 18, a parent must sign your release form. Copies of this release form will be made available at Glasgow High School and Nashua High School for those students whose parents will not be accompanying them to the walk/run. Proceeds will benefit Senior Citizens’ projects. Supplemental funding is being provided by Thrivent Financial. For further information, call Donna at 406-480-5029 or Judy at 526-3237.

Landowners have until March 15 to submit applications to Montana Fish, Wildlife, & Parks for enrollment in a unique public-access program that may qualify them for up to $2,000 in annual tax credits. Through the “Unlocking State Lands” program a landowner who enters into a contractual agreement with FWP to allow public recreational access across private land to reach a parcel of otherwise inaccessible state land is entitled to receive a $500 annual tax credit per contract—with a maximum of four contracts per year. The innovative Unlocking State Lands program is a product of House Bill 444, introduced in the 2013 Legislature by Representative Tom Jacobson from Great Falls. “The concept of offering a tax credit in exchange for public access across private land to reach state land

Landowners’ Access Program Tax Credit apps due March 15is a first of its kind in the nation, as far as we’ve been able to determine,” said Alan Charles, FWP coordinator of landowner/sportsman relations. In 2014, the first year of the new program, two landowners in central Montana enrolled in the program, providing access to four separate parcels of isolated state land and qualifying for a cumulative total of $2,000 in tax benefits.More information about the program, including enrollment criteria and the application form, can be found at http://fwp.mt.gov/hunting/hunterAccess/unlockingStateLands/; or contact Charles by phone at 406-444-3798 or via email at acharles@mt.gov.

Deer & elk permit apps due March 16 March 16 is the deadline to apply for Montana’s 2015 deer and elk hunting permits. An easy-to-use 12-page application packet is available online at fwp.mt.gov. Paper applications are also available from most license providers and Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks offices. All deer and elk regulations became final in February. The 2015 deer and elk regulations are online at fwp.mt.gov. Hard copies of the hunting regulations will be on the shelf at FWP offices and local license providers in April. Nonresidents who wish to apply for big game combination, elk combination or deer combination licenses and deer and elk permits for the 2015 fall Montana hunting season can also apply online or download an application from FWP’s website. To request an application by mail, write to: Licensing Section; Montana FWP; P.O. Box 200701, Helena, MT; 59620-0701; or call: 406-444-2950. The application deadline is March 16. Successful applicants will receive their permits in mid-April.

How the fight started

Yesterday my wife again asked why I didn’t do something useful with my time. “What?” I said, “what do you mean sitting out here on the porch drinking beer ain’t useful?” Talking about my “doing something useful” seems to be her favorite topic of conversation. She was “only thinking of me” and suggested I go down to the senior center and hang out with the guys. So I did this and when I got home last night I decided to teach her a lesson about staying out of my business. I told her that I had joined a parachute club. She said, “Are you nuts? You’re almost 70 years old and you’re going to start jumping out of airplanes?” I proudly showed her that I even got a membership card. She said to me, “Good grief, where are your glasses?!? This is a membership to a Prostitute Club, not a Parachute Club.” So I says, “Oh-oh, I’m in trouble again, and I don’t know what to do... I signed up for five jumps a week.” She fainted. And when she came to, that’s how the fight started. Life as a senior citizen is not getting any easier but sometimes it can be fun.

A number of U.S. cities and counties have passed legislation banning plastic bags, and others have bans in the works. The reasoning is straightforward: According to the Environmental Protection Agency, Americans generated 32 million tons of plastic waste in 2012, with a recycle rate of just 12 percent. But it’s not all bags. Business Insider reported that the U.S. uses 30 billion plastic water bottles each year. And still, serious calls for water bottle bans have been few and far between, limited mostly to college and university campuses. Bemidji State University, located in northern Minnesota, is the latest to enact such a ban. According to WDAZ-8, students voted in early February on a bill to stop the sale of plastic water bottles in all university facilities—except for the school’s sports stadium—beginning in fall 2016. The bill passed unanimously, and if it is approved by the university’s administration, Bemidji State would become the third Minnesota college to ban bottles. It’s a small addition to a small group of places with water bottle bans in place, but there may be bigger additions coming. San Francisco has had a limited ban in place since October 2014, prohibiting bottled water sales on public property and at events where onsite water is available. According to KCBS San Francisco, the legislation also includes a provision banning the sale of water bottles on all streets and sidewalks by 2016. California was at the forefront of the plastic bag ban movement—in September 2014 it became the first to ban bags on a statewide level—and if more major California cities follow San Francisco’s lead on water bottles, it might not be long before other cities do the same.
