The 25th Annual Phillips County Healthcare Foundation Dinner and Auction is this Saturday, November 12, and board member Julie Snellman hopes this year’s theme – entitled Black Tie and Blue Jeans – will encourage people to get dressed to the nines. “Since this is the 25th Anniversary we are encouraging people to dress up if they want,” Snellman said. “Wear a black tie, or come in your blue jeans. We thought we would have a theme and I know a few men already have their sports coats dusted off.” Since its inception in 1991, the Foundation Di...
Aside from the occasional substitution gigs, it looked like Darlene Kolczak’s career in education had come to an end when she retired from Malta Schools at the end of the year in 2014, but when an opportunity arose to get back in the field, Kolczak jumped at it. “I am the Phillips County Superintendent of Schools,” Kolczak said last Thursday in Malta. “It is something I have always aspired to do. I have kind of always liked this type of work. I was Chairman of the School Board in Landusky when m...
While many things have changed at the Hi-Line Retirement Center over the years it has sat next to the Phillips County Hospital, including the center’s name, one thing has remained constant; Darl Crowder. “November 12, 1979, that’s the day I started working at what was then the Good Samaritan,” Crowder told the PCN last week. “I worked from 11 o’clock at night to 7 in the morning, but I only did two shifts a week because we had our own business.” The “we” Crowder alludes to is her husband of 56...
For many people, the nine-to-five job requires warming the car in the morning, driving to work and then often spending countless hours away from home. But that’s most people. For the last 15 years, Jacy Stolem has worked from the comfort of her own house where her family and she run a number of home-based businesses. On Monday, November 14, from 5 p.m. until 7 p.m. she will be putting one of her newest business ventures on display in conjunction with the Malta Chamber of Commerce Business A... Full story
I used to like to watch it rain. It did so with such infrequency around here that any rainfall was an event worth noting. Until recently. Summer was wetter than usual, but this fall has been soggier than anyone can remember. The storm a few weeks ago washed out roads and flooded fields. And about the time floodwaters began to recede it started raining again. The old saying “We can always use the moisture,” has been replaced with “Be glad it’s not snow.” But it may be soon. It’s November no...
Members voted to delay by eight years the implementation of a new ozone emissions rule from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). This rule is ludicrously strict. And it would smother business growth and compromise funding for crucial infrastructure projects. The Senate should support the House's bill and pass this delay along to the President. Back in October, the EPA announced it would lower the ceiling for ground-level ozone emissions from 75 to 70 parts per billion. Commonly called smog, ground-level ozone is generated from the...
Well, the election is over (unless you are reading this on Tuesday night…if that is the case, use your imagination.) In previous columns, people who have said the “world will end” and point to a civil war depending on which candidate for president was crowned winner have been called to the carpet and asked to stop that idiotic notion. Well, if sports are any indication, maybe they were correct. Last Wednesday, the Chicago Cubs did away with the Curse of the Billy Goat and came back from a 3-1 deficit to win the Major League Baseball World...
I’m a White Sox fan, so I had lukewarm feelings about the Cubs winning the World Series last Wednesday night. I found myself honestly wanting to cheer for the Cubs throughout the MLB post-season, but I couldn’t do it. I remember thinking that they would just blow it like they have in past seasons. I’ll admit it I was wrong. There was no better team than the Cubs in 2016 and even though they fell behind 3-1 to Cleveland in the World Series, they seemed destined to win. It took a rain delay in gam...
Mother Nature finally straightened up and this week has been beautiful! The corrals have dried enough to allow shipping calves to take place! Heck, the Loring Lutheran Church might even get moved yet! The ground has been too soft so far. Many of the women from this area were in this weekend to participate in the Specialty Fair at the City Hall. Dixie Stordahl and Lu Besel sat at the GPDM table and right across from them was Brenda Clark with her creations! It was a fun day and we saw many...
The weather stayed nice so the little kids out on Halloween had a good evening to be out and about. It was nice to see almost all the little ones in costume! On Tuesday, Larry Solberg was presumed upon to be driver and Selma Miller, Polly Solberg and Dora Henry rode to Fort Peck to see the Veterans Memorial and for Selma to see the Dam and spillway, as she had never seen it. We then joined a crowd of near 2,000 at the Glasgow High School to hear Eva Kor, a twin, imprisoned at Auschwitz, tell her...

Malta Senior Citizens hosted a successful Soup and Bread event October 29, which allowed them to take two steps forward and only one back. Malta Ready Mix poured the sidewalk and curb this past week to complete the repairs from the broken water line. An FYI: When you, as a respectful citizen, see yellow tape and the City’s orange posts signifying DO NOT CROSS that is exactly what it means. The contractor came back to check on the sidewalk only to find a perfect foot print in the concrete. Since the cement had ‘set-up’ it took time to smoot...
