Lasting Visions gets new look

Staff Report

Lasting Visions has a new look after several months of making changes to the small business in downtown Bowman. Now, there is a separate almost enclosed area near the entrance so customers can take a purchase and be able to look outside while enjoying the drink or snack. According to owner Lyn James, “We decided a while back to do some things and had wanted to make some changes for quite some time,” she explained recently. “We finally made the decision to move forward. “We feel it has been a favorable improvement.” The new area has the windows to the outside in addition to windows and a partial wall almost enclosing it to the inside. It also recreated the area for customers to sit where they would be able to look outside easily. Lasting Visions still has more seating inside for the customers. “We are grateful for every customer who comes in the door, whether they are coming in to see our new reno-

vations, coming to shop or whatever. We greatly appreciate every customer,” she added. The changes started around the end of September, James said. “We were up and running by November 1st.” Now, it is just some little cosmetic changes, she explained. “It has changed our display area and our seating. It just changed how we do things. It gave us a little more separation for the people sitting and visiting. There is more room for them to be in different spots. There is a quiet space for those who come in here and use their laptop.” The new arrangement and design now allows for the interior to fulfill a lot of purposes for the customers, James said. The changes did not add or lose any square footage, she explained. “This was always in the original footprint. We just changed how things are set up.” The new area gives kids a place to do their homework and others a place to use their laptops. It gives other a place to have a quiet conversation, she explained.

Living Nativity shines light on reason for season Staff Report

Cool temperatures and wind gusts didn’t stop the annual Living Nativity from performing Sunday evening at the United Methodist Church. Temperatures in the low 40s and some wind gusts may have made it challenging, but in previous years, it has been much colder. According to spokeswoman Judy Sparks, changes were made to be COVID-19 compliant. “We made a lot of changes to be able to do this event this year. A lot of siblings acted out the same parts, and we did not have our soup supper. “We also had an FM transmitter so people didn’t even have to leave their vehicles. They could turn to the FM frequency and listen in the warmth of their car.” The cast were played by youth from Release time, youth group and

Wednesday night Discovery Club,” she added. The people playing the roles in the production were: Mary – Taylor Getz Joseph – Gavin Getz Stable angel – Bostyn Blankenbaker Other angels – Gracie Ruggles, Lily Ruggles, Carlee Miller, Alexis Hogan, Jordyn Honeyman. Shepherds – Cassi Humbracht, Cami Humbracht, Macen Honeyman, Ali Hogan, Coy Marmon. Magi – Emma Welch, Olivia Welch, Sophia Welch “Randy and Donna Bolte brought in their miniature animals,” said Sparks, who also directed the production. She praised the other people involved in the production. “People helped with set up, take down, advertising, lights, sound, making food, serving food, costumes, bringing in hay bales, and videoing,” she added.

Rhame Parade of Lights draws crowds in spite of cold Staff Report

DWB donates to Sunrise Foundation

It was a parade so nice they did it twice in Rhame Friday evening. While the weather outside was frightful (to some), nearing 20 degrees on a clear night, it just meant warm gloves and clothes

were needed for the event sponsored by the community’s Community Club. The annual Parade of Lights took over downtown Rhame with the vehicles rolling down the main drag in the town two times in spite of 20-degree weather. But the biggest draw was Santa who rode

the first time through town, then climbed off and walked down the sidewalk meeting the parents and children along the way before stopping near the refreshment stand near The Waterhole. (The Bowman County Pioneer has video of the parade posted on its Facebook page.)

Dakota Western Bank recently made a $10,000 donation to the Sunrise Foundation. Presenting the check is Ron Palczewski (left), President & CEO of Dakota Western Bank. Accepting the donation are Barbi Narum (center), Sunrise Foundation director, and Dr. Jennifer Sarsland (right), member of the Sunrise Foundation board of directors. The Sunrise Foundation supports rural healthcare as a partner with Southwest Healthcare Services in Bowman to support healthcare in Bowman, Slope, western Adams and Harding counties. Ron Palczewski is currently serving as President of the Sunrise Foundation board of directors. Dakota Western Bank is based in Bowman, ND. and has branches in Rhame, Scranton, Hettinger and Regent, ND.

Bowman fills empty stands with Facebook performances Staff Report

Bowman County had a series of Christmas concerts Monday and Tuesday, but the stands were empty, except for the performers in Solberg Gym. The stands and the school were empty of the normal spectators for Christmas concerts because of the COVID-19 guidelines issued by the state. But the performances were still filling the air with music as Facebook live allowed parents and relatives to watch them. One of the viewers even sent a comment about the performance from the state of Washington.

The first of the concerts was by the Kindergarten through third grade students in the morning. Grades fourth - sixth and the bands followed them. The final concert Monday was by student in grades 7 through 12. It was the students at the Rhame campus performing Tuesday morning. According to school officials, the Bowman County School District held a virtual 2020 Winter Concert for safety concerns. “We feel that our students need to perform in the safest way possible. All performances will be live streamed via the Bowman County Bulldogs Facebook page and will also be posted on the Bowman County Bulldogs website at a later date.”

Evelyn Young, wife of Edward Young, Austin York and Maurice Farmer died Dec. 13. She was 91 years old. Evy was born on Oct.10, 1929 as Evelyn Clair Beier to Dave and Lucy Beier of Rhame, ND. She grew up on the Beier farm and attended Adelaid Country School through 8th grade. She graduated from Rhame High School in 1947 and continued her schooling by attending the National School of Business in Rapid City, SD. Evelyn married Maurice Farmer in December of 1951.

An interesting song You Unfaithful! Here are the lyrics to this song: O come, all you unfaithful Come, weak and unstable Come, know you are not alone O come, barren and waiting ones Weary of praying, come See what your God has done Christ is born, Christ is born Christ is born for you

Pastor Ray Sherwood

Last week I heard the title of a song that caused me to question the reason for it! I almost thought, well actually did think, it was a song that was written in bad taste and one that would ridicule our Lord and Savior. The title of the song is, “O Come, All Ye Unfaithfulâ€? but when I listened to the song and read those words‌my heart sang out O come, all ye unfaithful! I realized how wrong I was in judging something I had not even heard, and it caused me to think how many times you and I look at people with judging attitudes forgetting that Christ came to save all who would come to Him. All that needs to happen is you and I opening our hearts and telling people, O Come, All

O come, bitter and broken Come with fears unspoken Come, taste of His perfect love O come, guilty and hiding ones There is no need to run See what your God has done Christ is born, Christ is born Christ is born for you He’s the Lamb who was given Slain for our pardon His promise is peace For those who believe He’s the Lamb who was given Slain for our pardon His promise is peace For those who believe So come, though you have nothing Come, He is the offering

Come, see what your God has done Christ is born, Christ is born Christ is born for you Christ is born, Christ is born Christ is born for you Each one of us today probably knows someone who needs to hear these words. I know I did because there are times we can get so caught up in “life with Christâ€? that we forget there are those, even in our churches, who are hurting and feel as if no one cares for them! To let them know that Christ was born for them! It doesn’t matter what you have or do not have, Christ was born for me, for you, and for all people! I love this passage in Isaiah 55:1-2b, “Ho! Everyone who thirsts, Come to the waters; And you who have no money, Come, buy and eat. Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price‌Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good, and let your soul delight itself in abundance‌â€? (NKJV) One of the lyrics in this song says, “So come, though you have nothing, Come, He is the offering, Come, see what your God has done.â€? Christ became our offering through His birth, His death and His resurrection. Let us all come and see what God has done‌Christ is born, Christ is born, Christ is born for all!

Led by senior Samantha Oase’s 23 points, the Hettinger-Scranton girls basketball team opened its 2020 season with an easy 58-13 victory over visiting Richardton-Taylor in the opening round of the annual Roughrider Tournament. The hosts got off to a fast start, scoring the first 10 points on their way to a 16-2 first quarter lead. The lead jumped to 26-2 before Richardton-Taylor could score again on their way to a 31-4 halftime advantage. With substitutions and a running clock, the Night Hawks had built up a 50-11 lead going into the final quarter and went on to claim the win. According to Night Hawk coach Kelly Pierce, the game showcased the defense more than the offense. “It went well. We were trying to work on our defensive identity and focus on the defensive end. We don’t have a lot of offense in. “With what we had in I thought the girls did really well. I’m really pleased with how they played. We were executing,” he explained. He thought the team did a good job of frustrating the Raiders and forcing them into turnovers poor shot selection – especially for their first game of the season. Oase and Beth Lien led the first quarter scoring attack, each scoring eight points. Oase added 11 more before halftime. Lien finished the game with 11 points. The hosts also got six points from Casitee Miller, while Bailee Pierce put in five, including one of the team’s three point baskets in the third quarter. Ally Schalesky and Laela Jensen finished with four points apiece. Sidra Sadowsky scored three and Ella Jensen finished with two points. Pierce, Sadowsky and Lien scored the long-range baskets in the third quarter. For the Raiders, the only scorers were Skylar Crow (11 points) and Gracee Kuntz with two points. The team faced a busy first week of the season, playing Grant County on the road Tuesday before playing the second round game in the Roughrider Tournament.
