FSA plans local workshops for ranchers, farmers BY BRAD MOSHER bmosher@countrymedia.net
T
he Farm Services Agency office in Bowman announced workshops that explained how the 2018 Farm Bill will affect ranchers and farmers in Bowman and Slope counties. The workshops began Tuesday (Jan. 21) and run through today with both morning and afternoon sessions, according to LaVonne Wegner, the county executive for the agency's Bowman/Slope FSA office. The FSA had both morning and afternoon session and two different locations to choose from. “It was the same workshop. I am just offered it twice a day during the week. I just like to provide an option for different people's schedules.� The attendees did not need to bring anything with them to the workshops, Wegner added. “Under the 2018 Farm Bill, they have three options for program sign up and I went through those three different programs to help them (farmers and ranchers) decide which is better for their farming operation,� she said. “It is for farmers and ranchers with the land actually holding commodity bases. Some of our ranchers have base acres, just like the farming operations do and it is the programs that they would like to enroll those base acres in. “It doesn't matter the size of the farming operation as to which program is better. It is more in line with what they are doing in their operation,� the executive director explained. In one of those programs, it does matter what the producer is planting. In two of the other programs, it does not (matter),� she explained. The workshops consisted of both morning and afternoon sessions through Jan. 24 in Bowman, primarily targeting operations in Bowman and Slope counties, but they were also open to people in neigh-

Amidon archers aim for fun, state BY BRAD MOSHER bmosher@countrymedia.net
S
unday nights in Amidon may be quiet, but that is when the Robin Hood dreams are taking flight in this small North Dakota town. Even in the dead of winter with snow and ice outside the main building at the Slope County Fairgrounds, a handful of local children pull back on a compound bow to chase their dream inside. They quietly line up a short distance in front of their targets. They wait for the command. They put an arrow in the bow and quietly take aim. For some, the arrow hits the center of the target. For others, they hit the outer rings. A few even bounced off the targets. When the quiver was empty, the archers waited for instructions to go
remove the arrows from the targets. Then another group of archers would to the same. The age range is usually from eight year-olds to seniors who are up to 19 years old, according to Kyle Frank, the range manager for the events. At stake for the 4H members on the range is a chance to compete for a berth in the state championship event April 4 in Minot. The next competition on the indoor match schedule is the Badlands Roundup Jan. 25 in Watford City, followed by scheduled events in by the Northwest District meet (Feb. 1) in Minot, the Northeast District (Feb. 22) in Cando, the Southeast District meet (March 6 and 7) in West Fargo, the Southwest District meet (March 14) in Bismarck, the Luck of the Draw (March 27 and 28) in Edgeley and the archery indoor championships in Minot. “Most of my kids will be going to Watford City, Minot and the districts
in Bismarck. They only require two scores, two competitions, to qualify for the state indoor.� But the future archers will have a break in their schedule when the building is used by the local theater group for rehearsing for the next performance of the Slope County Players. “We will be holding off here for the month of February because we got the dinner theater going on,� Frank said, noting the building and indoor range he has set up in front of the stage will be soon filled up. The archery program put on by the local 4-H has been fairly constant in the number of participants over the years, Frank explained. “Usually, if we lose one or two, we’ll gain one or two,� he said. Some of the losses come in the higher age groups when they develop new interests. Each flight of archers is usually a mix of some older, some young, some

Editorial
Among all the Christmas cheer, the blessings and the baby’s birth, there’s always got to be a Grinch. This year it was the U.S. Postal Service. Not the people who stuff your mail box or sell you stamps or deliver to your door, but the institution itself. Granted, it’s a tough slog for them during the holidays. Folks from sea to shining sea, who for the rest of the year use electronics rather than envelopes with stamps, all of a sudden are overflowing the outgoing mail chutes with letters and packages and expectations that everything will be delivered before Christmas. But for some postal Grinches, there are no acceptable excuses. A couple weeks before Christmas, the operator of the weekly newspaper in New Salem sent an at-wits-end message wondering if there is something, anything, that could be done to find copies of her newspaper that hadn’t made it to their destinations in and around Bismarck-Mandan.

The Bowman County Pioneer
By Steve Andrist, North Dakota Newspaper Association
The very next week I started checking my own mail box for my hometown papers. They still hadn’t arrived a week later when I learned there were plenty of others whose delivery was delayed. Starting to feel a bit grinchy myself, I fired off a note, as I usually do when NDNA gets delivery complaints from member newspapers, to the guy who’s in charge of the Dakotas for the postal service. But this time I was grinchier than normal. Hello Doug: Regrettably I need to report more periodicals delivery issues related to the Bismarck postal facility. Last week the newspaper at New Salem, ND reported 12-14 copies addressed for delivery in Bismarck-Mandan had not been delivered. This week the same issue has been reported by the operators of newspapers in Crosby and Tioga. I can verify this particular complaint, because I am a subscriber to the Crosby and Tioga papers. I am aware that last week’s editions were entered Tuesday
evening, Dec. 10 at Minot. Today, Dec. 17, they have yet to be delivered. Also today, operators of those papers have notified me that multiple other subscribers in Bismarck-Mandan have not yet received their papers. These are periodicals that are put on a truck in Minot and driven 100 miles to Bismarck the same night. Home delivery of them is often accomplished on Wednesday, usually on Thursday, sometimes as late as Friday. And sometimes not at all. Doug, as you know, the continuing failure of USPS to provide on-time periodicals delivery threatens the customer base of these newspapers, and significantly impacts their economic viability. As you also know, I routinely and regularly notify you personally of delivery issues that impact members of the North Dakota Newspaper Association. You always reply that you have asked someone to “mine” the data to find the problem, but then I rarely hear anything more until I forward the next complaint. Frustrated newspaper opera-
tors wonder if USPS even cares. Because of a never-ending string of issues, who can blame them? It’s like putting out one fire, then another, then another, without ever finding the source of the flames. Would you please fix it? We are your friends, and through NDNA and the National Newspaper Association we have long advocated for postal reform to remove some of the barriers with which you are saddled. But when it seems one-sided, a friendship becomes strained. For your information, this week I have also been presented anecdotal evidence that people expecting package delivery have followed tracking procedures and found long periods of time in which the packages have remained in Bismarck. I truly hope you can find cures to replace the band aids. Little did I know that these delivery issues paled in comparison to what was later discovered in Dickinson. Troubled by continuing cus-
tomer complaints about newspapers that never showed up in mail boxes, staffers at the Dickinson Press decided to do some snooping of their own. What they found was that there was a great big Grinch somewhere at the Dickinson post office. In garbage bins behind the building they found and photographed hundreds of newspapers, still bundled and unopened, along with thousands of copies of their shopper and a bunch of other envelopes and general mail. The situation in Dickinson could potentially rise to the level of a federal crime. That’s pretty serious stuff compared to a never-ending string of late-delivered newspapers. In both cases, though, the postal Grinches have proved they’ve got a lot of work to do if the ever anticipate emulating the transformation of Ebenezer Scrooge. My New Year’s hope for newspapers is that USPS takes the transformation seriously.

temperature at which water boils – focuses on taking students to the boiling point of leadership. At 211° water is extremely hot, but just one more degree gets us to the next level. The two-day 212o Leadership Conference is focused on student development and helps FFA members become aware of their passions and virtues. FFA members attended sessions on discovering their passions, making positive decisions, setting SMART goals and taking steps towards self-improvement. The Blue conference takes students full circle in terms of chapter leadership. The two-day Blue conference is focused on the importance of vision and how to become a visionary
leader. Students spent their time in sessions understanding the importance of vision, conducting a chapter needs assessment, crafting a vision plan for their local FFA chapter and developing a strategy to implement their vision. The Gold conference is designed for seniors that might have an interest in running for state office at the upcoming State Convention. This exclusive event was facilitated by former state officers and had the students working as team leaders with the 101 conferences/food packaging event. Members also participated in a food packing event for the Great Plains Food Bank. Over 200,000 meals were packaged and
shipped out all across the state. These conferences are a great opportunity for students to work toward becoming both better members and better leaders. The skills they learn at the conferences will not only help them as individuals but, more important, they learn skills they can take home to their chapters, school and community. Over 1,100 students attended this conference weekend. These students are some of the best and the brightest youth and will be future leaders and promoters of North Dakota agriculture industry.

ATMs tabled at school board meeting BY BRAD MOSHER bmosher@countrymedia.net A proposal to place an ATM on the Bowman County School campus has been tabled for the present, according to the school superintendent. The Bowman County School District in its Jan. 15 board meeting decided to hold off placing an automated teller machine on the campus, said Superintendent Wayne Heckaman. “We tabled it,” he said
Friday. “After we presented the information, we decided not to move forward at this time. If there is a future need, more of an expressed need for our patrons, then we have the information and we can move forward at a later date,” he explained. “We were mainly looking at putting an ATM out there for after school activities. It would be if somebody came up during after school activities and needed some cash for concessions or anything of that nature,” the superintendent said.
Among the other items on the agency at Wednesday’s were updates from committees on school leadership, sick bank and RESP meetings, along with working on the Safe Routes to School project. The school is also waiting for better weather so the roof project can be inspected and the district can get a warranty for the roof, the superintendent added. The next school board meeting will be at 5:30 p.m. Feb. 12 in the conference room at the high school.

with experience and some new, Frank explained. “I try to mix in a couple of beginners, with a couple of the older kids so they can get the feel of it. You can point things out easier if you have got them mixed up that way. It helps us as coaches trying to keep up. We can concentrate on the younger ones and let the older ones get their shots in. “It is amazing how much of an effect it (mentoring) has. You don’t think about it until you watch it take place,� he added. The 4-H competitions have three age groups – beginners, juniors and seniors, according to Franks. “We leave it up to the parents if they want to take their kids (to the competitions). The main thing is that they are safe on the range and know all the range commands.,� he said. The training program draws from Bowman and Hettinger counties, in addition to some coming down from Stark County. “I’ve had a couple who come down from South Heart and Dickinson in years past,� Frank said. “We are trying to draw from everywhere and give everybody that opportunity to come in. It has helped us stay stable. “I think the most we have had is about 14. It tails off with the older kids

because often there is other stuff going on. That is pretty common around high school age. “That is why I have moved it to Sunday nights, to try to let these kids who want to do both (high school and 4-H), that they could. We used to have it on Wednesday nights. But then you had practices, confirmation classes, and so many kids were out, that I moved it to Sunday nights. I seems to work a lot better,� Frank explained. For local parents, the attraction to the program can be that it help develop self reliance and self-disci-

pline, he said. “Being that it is a sole-person sport and not a team sport, they have to prove to themselves that they can do it.� ADA compliant In addition, Frank pointed out that the shooting sports like archery are also ADA (American Disability Act) compliant. “There all kinds of stuff out there for them that there didn’t used to be. There were two deaf kids that shot here with us about two years ago. Their coach stood right beside them and everything was hand-signals. They made it work. It
worked pretty well. I was impressed with it,� he said. Trap starts in June Although the 4-H program statewide offers air rifle competition that is not available in Amidon. “We just don’t have anyone to do it. We have a couple of people trained in it, but we just don’t have any kids interested in the air rifle yet.� There will be trap shooting offered in June, Frank said. “It will be right after graduation. We like to give them a couple of weeks there after school is out to relax and get their jitters
out,� he explained. “We have a little makeshift trap range out there,� he said, pointing north behind the building. “I’d love to see a local trap club start up again.� According to Frank, there have attempts to resurrect the trap range in Havelock, a township in Hettinger County. “There was one over there (east of New England) for years and years and years. It just has fallen by the wayside. They just lost the people in the early 1990s. Everything is there. They just got to get it cleaned up,� Frank explained. “It wouldn’t take
much to do it. Just get the right people in place.� That could also be true of setting up a permanent trap range in Amidon, he added. There also has been some discussion of getting a high school trap team set up at some of the local schools. There already is a North Dakota State High School Clay Target League, which will hold a state competition June 13-14 in the town of Horace. Recent additions to the Clay Target League are Hazen, Lakota and St. Johns high schools.

COW POWER AT ITS FINEST: The basis of any good breeding program is the mother cow. Our motto is: “THE RANCHER COMES FIRSTâ€?. Every breeding decision we make is to improve our customer’s bottom line. BEGGER’S DIAMOND V RANCH provides the perfect blend of COW SENSE, COMMON SENSE and SCIENCE. We know the value of a good mother cow, she must be fertile, efficient and problem-free. She must have the staying power to produce a valuable calf year-after-year on her own, with no extra assistance in the environment mother nature provides. She must possess a low-maintenance, easy-fleshing body type that requires little or no extra input. She has to have a problem-free udder and have a good gentle attitude with a set of feet and legs that will serve her until she exits your program at a ripe old age. We are your source for homozygous black and polled Simmental, SimAngus™, Angus genetics, the top 170 bulls out of 275 sell. Many ½ & ž brothers sell in volume enabling you to assemble like bred genetics that are predictable and consistent. From a program that does the day-to-day work. We calve, feed, and work around our cattle every day, so we know our cows if they become problematic. They won’t see next year and their only way out is through a packing plant. We are straight shooters, we don’t hem and haw or beat around the bush. We honestly try to answer and meet our customer’s questions, needs and concerns. Our bulls come with a complete 100% satisfaction warranty. If there is a problem we will make it right. We provide free bull keep until April, along with a free breeding soundness exam and free delivery, in most cases nationwide on purchases over $5,000. Every bull walks through the sale ring enabling you to see what you are buying. Some pictures and videos just don’t represent cattle as they should. A 100% satisfaction guarantee on sight unseen purchases. The chase is on by Breed Associations, A.I. Companies, Universities, and some breeders to go to an EPD-only selection format. They furnish only an EPD profile and dollar indexes to make breeding selections (we firmly believe in and use EPDs, but feel that they are only one of many tools to consider when making breeding decisions). They claim that by furnishing less info, it’s less confusing, and they are making it easier on you. We feel that most cattlemen are smart enough to understand and make good use of any and all information we can provide. Raw data such as actual birth wt., 205 wt., 365 wt., ADG and ratios tells you how a calf has performed among his contemporaries. It shows you his potential to sire calves that may increase or decrease performance. There are way too many cattle out there with excellent EPDs and dollar indexes that are not worthy of anything but a castrating knife. You can breed for all the highest EPDs and indexes in the world, but if you sacrifice FLESHING ABILITY, MENTAL, and PHYSICAL TRAITS, along with an animal’s ability to produce pay weight and eye appeal, all you will gain is a cull cow with good EPDs.

Registrations are due by February 3 for artists to enter their faith-based work in a juried show that is part of an exciting, inspirational event to be held in Bismarck March 27-29, 2020. Marking its 13th year, the Artists Celebrating Christ Art Show provides an uplifting experience for artists and community members alike. Wendy Voeller from Minot, ND, is this year’s featured artist. “This is something the world needs, and it's something we, as Christian artists, need,� she says. “We live in a world that sometimes tells us we can't make a living as Christian artists. Artists and craftsmen have
a very important future in this world, and we need to step forward and be part of that.� The show has grown each year and includes juried visual and liturgical art; student art and classes; workshops, demonstrations, and vendors; as well as performing artists, an artist reception and a silent auction. Quality of the show is one of the recurring themes in participant and attendee feedback. But that’s not all. Shannon Wirrenga, one of the founders of the event, says fellowship among Christian artists has been a big part of its success. “Many have expressed relief

FSA Âť FROM PAGE1 boring counties. Wegner said that the FSA offices in other counties are setting up their own workshops. Among the information, which was provided at the sessions, was how the Agricultural Improvement
Act of 2018 reauthorized the ARC and PLC programs with changes for the 2019 through 2023 crop years. According to a release by the Farm Services Agency, the ARC Program is an income support program,

which provides payments when actual crop revenue declines below a specific guarantee level. The PLC Program provides income support payments when the effective price for a covered commodity falls before its effective reference price. Among the 22 covered commodities are wheat, oats, corn, soybeans, sunflower seed, and canola. There are certain eligibility requirements for the ARC or PLC programs, which means farmers may not receive payments if the land was idle or fallow from 2009 through 2017. There are other guidelines covering beginning, veteran or limited resource farmers. In addition, the workshops will also cover yield updates, election of ARC or
PLC, enrollment guidelines, payment schedules, eligibility for crop insurance, Price Loss Coverage, County Agriculture Risk Coverage and Individual Agricultural Risk Coverage. According to Wegner, the office is asking for people interested in attending the workshop to contact the office to arrange which session to attend. Most of the morning and afternoon sessions were held in the local office in Bowman, but there were two sessions available Jan. 23 in Amidon at the Slope County Courthouse in the community room. Wegner said the sessions were kept small, limited to about eight people, to help make the sessions more effective.

Bulldogs roll past Cowboys, 73-25 A cold first half on a cold night had the visiting Killdeer Cowboys watching the Bowman County Bulldogs cruise to a lopsided 73-25 win Tuesday (Jan. 7) in Bowman. The Bulldogs jumped out to a 26-13 lead after one quarter. Then it got worse for the visitors as the Bulldogs took advantage of turnovers and a flurry of three-point baskets to make a 28-7 run into the half. Bowman County held a 54-20 halftime lead, but the hosts extended their lead in the third quarter when they added 16 points and held the visitors to just five. With the bench cleared for much of the second half, the Bulldogs added just three points in the final quarter, while the Cowboys were shut out. The first quarter charge by the Bulldogs was led by Caleb Duffield’s 14 points. He finished the game with 27 points even though he didn’t play in the fourth quarter. Duffield added six more in the second quarter and seven early in the third quarter. He also finished with three of the team’s nine three-point baskets. In the second quarter, the scoring stampede continued with four three-pointers coming from Cam Wokal, Jacob Svihovec
and two from Gavin Scott. The Bulldogs finished with 10 more baskets then the vistors and an 9-1 edge in three-point scoring. Bowman County also had a 10 to 6 edge in scoring at the free throw line. In addition to Duffield, the Bulldogs had Senn (12) and Svihovec (10) also score in double figures. The rest of the team’s nine scorers included Scott with eight points, Wokal put in five while Matt Osendorf, Dale Skalicky and Jaxson Fischer added three points each. Clay Heimer scored two. The visiting Cowboys were led by Daylon Danks’ eight points. Cayden Kling added five, while Tyler Hansen put in four points and Kaden Nodland scored three before fouling out in the second half. Keith Dukart and Jamie Keller each added two pints, while Colby Asay out in a free throw. The victory put Bowman County atop the Region 7 standings with a 2-0 record (5-1 overall), one game ahead of four teams with 1-0 records (Beach, Dickinson Trinity, Beulah and Mott-Regent). The only loss this season was a 57-45 decision in the Roughrider tournament championship game to Dickinson Trinity. Killdeer fell to 0-1 in the region and 1-5 overall with

Bulldogs hold off late New Town rally STAFF REPORT The Bowman County Bulldogs added a 72-62 win to their record Saturday, but it won’t count in the Region 7 standings. New Town traveled to Bowman Saturday and left with only its third loss of the season. The Eagles lead Region 8 District 15 with a 1-0 district record and are 2-0 in their region. But against Region 7 foes, Saturday’s loss dropped the team to 1-2. The Eagles lost their season opener to Beulah and have beaten Beach. Fast Start The Bulldogs had an early 9-5 lead in the first quarter before they took advantage of turnovers and sweeping the defensive boards to turn that four point advantage to an 18-7 lead by the first buzzer.
Senior Caleb Duffield led the charge, getting 11 of his eventual 15 in the first eight minutes of the game. The Bulldogs kept up the pressure early in the second quarter, building a 22-7 lead before the New Town Eagles would score again. That 15-point lead would be the cushion that the Bulldogs would use the rest of the game to hold off repeated rallies by the visiting Eagles. The Bulldogs held a 3727 lead at halftime. In the first minutes of the third quarter, the Bulldogs went on another 8-2 run, building a 45-29 lead, but the Eagles came back with four unanswered point to close the gap to 12 (45-33). With two minutes left, the Eagles had cut the Bulldogs’ lead to nine (5142). The two teams started the final quarter with
Bowman County holding a 10-point lead (56-46). With six minutes left, the Eagles had closed it to eight points, but that was as close as the visitors could get, as Jacob Svihovec took over the inside game for the Bulldogs. The senior had been sidelined for much of the third quarter after picking up a fourth foul. When he returned, Svihovec scored eight of his eventual 26 poits to help hold off the Eagles. With under two minutes on the clock, the Bulldogs had taken a 67-54 lead. But a foul and technicalo helped New Town close the gap to nine (67-58) with 1:27 on the clock . With less than 30 seconds left, Bowman County held a narrow 67-62 lead. But the Bulldogs went on a 5-0 run to close out the game with a 72-62 victory. Svihovec led all scorers

with 26 points, with 10 coming in the final quarter after he had spent time on the bench with four fouls. He was also a perfect 4-for4 at the free throw line, including the game’s final points. Duffield had 15 points while Jaxson Fischer came off the bench in the third quarter for Svihovec and added eight of his eventual
10 points. Matt Osendorf hit three treys to finish with nine points, one each in the final three quarters. Gavin Scott finished with six points, while Brody Senn put in four and both Cam Wokal and Clay Heimer added a one each. Svihovec, Duffield and Osendorf each finished the game with four fouls.
Williams leads Eagles Tristan Williams led the Eagles in scoring with 25 points, but it was the cold first quarter that doomed the visitors. After scoring just seven points in the first quarter, the Eagles came back to outscore their hosts in the second quarter (20-19) and match them in the third (19-19) and fourth (16-16). Khael Decouteau scored 11 points to be the only other Eagle in double figures. Shooter Stewart had nine points, while Emil Nakapaahu added seven points. Jastyn Good Bird scored six, while Dylan Jones added four points. The victory improved the Bowman County season record to 6-1 going into Tuesday’s (Jan. 14) home game against Lemmon and another Saturday contest (Jan. 18) when they travel to Dickinson Trinity to “host� Underwood in a 2:30 p.m. contest. The Bulldogs will be back home again when they host Harding County (Jan. 21) and Mott-Regent (Jan. 24).

Bulldogs edge Lemmon after ice-cold start STAFF REPORT Bowman County started off the basketball game Tuesday against Lemmon colder than the sub-zero temperatures outside Solberg gymnasium. The visiting Cowboys built an 18-point lead (20-2) by taking advantage of Bulldog turnovers and sweeping the boards. With only 1:38 left in the quarter, sophomore Gavin Scott broke the scoring drought with a basket and a buzzer-beating three-point shot by Caleb Duffield closed the gap to 23-7. In the final three quarters, the Bulldogs rallied to pull out a too-close-for-comfort 60-58 home victory, thanks to a lay-up by Duffield with 16 seconds left in the game. In the second quarter, the Bulldogs started their rally, outscoring the visitors by a 23-12 margin. Matt Osendorf started the charge when he was fouled trying a three-pointer and sank two of
the three charity shots. Camden Wokal followed with a basket to put his team in double figures (2311), while Jaxson Fisher kept the run going, bringing the deficit to 10 points (23-13). Scott followed with a three-pointer and Duffield hit a pair of free throws, cutting the Cowboys’ lead to 23-18 with about 3:30 left before halftime. The 11-0 run ended when Lemmon finally scored its first basket of the quarter. The Bulldogs continued the pressure, with Duffield hitting another of his three-pointers with 1:19 left in the half, cutting the lead to four points. He then added a two-pointer in the final minute to make it a 30-27 game. But the Cowboys rallied with two scores in the final seconds. Just before the buzzer Duffield was fouled on a three-point attempt. He sank all three free throws to leave Lemmon’s lead at 35-30 at the half. In the second half, baskets by Wokal and Fischer cut the lead

to a point (35-34) in the first two
minutes. It was Duffield’s three-point shot from the corner with 5:38 left that gave the Bulldogs a 37-35 lead. The hosts had outscored the Cowboys by a 33-17 margin since they had fallen behind by 18 points in the first quarter. The Cowboys rallied to tie the game at 39-39, and then the Bulldogs took the lead and went on a 8-4 run. In the final minute, the Cowboys roared back with a pair of baskets and a three-point buzzer-beater that gave them a 50-49 lead going into the final quarter. A pair of three-pointers by Duffield and Jacob Svihovec midway through the quarter gave the Bulldogs a 58-56 lead. But the Cowboys were able to tie the game again at 58-58 with a pair of free throws by Lemmon’s Britt Oliver with 1:37 left. It took a layup by Duffield to get the lead with 16 second left and the Bulldog defenders keeping the Cowboys from scoring that enabled Bowman County to grab
the win. Duffield leads scorers Duffield finished the game with 18 points, while Svihovec had 16 and Scott finished with 11. Brady Senn scored five points, while Wokal and Fischer added four and Osendorf finished with two points. The Cowboys were led by Oliver’s 17 points, while Cody Thompson had 11 points and Peyton Anderson put in 10. Jacob Hetzel scored eight points, while Alec O’Donnell had four. The win improved the Bulldogs’ record to 7-1 for the season, going into the Saturday “home game” at Dickinson Trinity against Underwood. The game is scheduled for 2:30 p.m. in the Knights of Columbus Activities Center. The Bulldogs will really host Harding County (Jan. 21) and Mott-Regent (Jan. 24) in Bowman, before starting a three-game road series at Belle Fourche, Glen Ullin/Hebron and Dickinson Trinity.

student at Bowman County school, was accepted to the Northwest International Festival of Music at Minot State University at the at the Northern Plains Music Festival at Dickinson State University. Nov. 29 Scranton school play out of this world - Believe it or not, alien life forms invaded Scranton on Nov. 22. The strange creatures were discovered at the Scranton Public School annual play, No Signs of Intelligent Life. There, Scranton’s junior students put their acting skills to the test and performed a comedy play for the public based on aliens trying to blend into earth society. For over a month, Director Jennifer Riemann and Co-director Terri Bergquist helped the junior students practice their parts and prepare for last Friday’s performance. “In the play, the aliens are undercover on earth,” said Riemann. “What ends up happening is that the aliens end up having a bunch of weird and awkward encounters while trying to fit into everyday life.”
Dec. 6 Next Door Pizza opening draws crowds – The newest restaurant in Bowman opened its doors to big business and a long “rush hour” when Next Door Pizza opened along Highway 12 in Bowman Monday. The second pizzeria opened in Bowman to a full parking lot and dining area filled with customers and it stayed that way. Dec. 13 Bowman Library helps kicks off the season with Santa, homemade ornaments - Santa spent several hours visiting with children in the Bowman Public Library, posing for photos. But that wasn't the only seasonal draw for the library. Just a short distance away, children of all ages could create homemade Christmas ornaments with designs of trees, angels and donkeys. While some children were busy in the library with ornaments and Santa, others chose to get a hayride around the downtown area, sitting on bales of hay in a horsedrawn wagon. The Bowman Theater also got into the
act with a matinee performance of the 2003 Will Ferrell film “Elf”. According to a library spokeswoman more than 250 people stopped by to visit with Santa and also get a picture taken with the visitor from the North Pole. Dec. 20 Frosty Frolic overcomes frigid temperatures - The weather outside may not have been frightful, but the annual Frosty Frolic Saturday at Bowman's Rouzie Recreation Center was hotter than the single digit temperatures outside. The frolic may have been slower than last year's but the visitors still had a chance to choose from everything from locally produced honey, to baked goods, totes, jewelry, clothing, artwork, purses and decorative wreaths. There also was a booth for "couR4ge" scholarships and another with BHS items. Dec. 27 Grinch gangs up on Slope County for Christmas spree - Calling Dr. Seuss! The Slope County Courthouse in Amidon has been invaded by a green gang from the famous children’s
author. But they will be gone soon, according to the county's Kris Jacobson, the Clerk of Court Recorder. They will be gone shortly after Christmas, Jacobson explained. “Putting it up was fun and people like it,” she explained, noting some of the people in the county building really got into “Grinch-ifying” with seasonal decorations right after Thanksgiving. They have a Grinch and his canine accomplice in a line-up just outside the county sheriff office. Another has taken over a small office in the main corridor, while yet another Grinch is making off in a sleigh with Slope County property. The Grinch even covered a Christmas tree with his own ornaments. Even though Jacobson admitted the Grinch gang will soon be escaping, she added she didn't know if they would return for the another Christmas haul in the halls of the Slope County Courthouse next December. Or even if the sheriff will issue a BOLO (Be On The Lookout) for the group of greenish holiday hooligans.
