SEPTEMBER 9, 1998
Smoldering cottonwood tree limbs erupted into a full blaze at the Whitehall dump on Tuesday, September 1 and county officials were considering a range of options to prevent a repeat incident.
Moist cool air and scattered rain showers on Labor Day dampened the emergency fire threat in southwestern Montana, and crews at the Bear Gulch fire south of Whitehall were pulled off the fire on September 6th.
Augie Brower and Jackson Truckle were selected to perform at the 1998 Montana High School All-State Music Festival at the University of Montana-Missoula in October. Brower, who played the tuba, would be making his third appearance at the festival, and Truckle would sing in the All-State Choir. The two were selected after submitting audition tapes. Hundreds of tapes were submitted, and only a select few were chosen to perform. Truckle was the first Whitehall choir member selected for the All-State Choir in several years.
Student of the week was senior Kyle Ross. Kyle was nominated by teacher Bill Herbolich for his work in Trigonometry, Functions, and Statistics. "Kyle works hard and has a very good attitude."
