Falcons didn’t go easily

Tough competitions lead to two losses for Twin Bridges volleyball

The Falcons volleyball team traveled to White Sulphur Spring to take on the Hornets Sept. 27. The competition was close throughout the game, but the Hornets came out on top in five rounds. 

Last weekend, Madison County cross country teams convened in Twin Bridges. The day started out dreary and cold, and progressed to become drearier and colder by the time the boys’ varsity runners lined up at 10:30 a.m. However, runners tend to prefer cooler temperatures instead of 85 and sunny.

After the cancelation of the Pony meet, Madison County High School cross country teams went elsewhere to stay on track. The weekend turned out to be beneficial for the runners, and the coaches are continuously proud of improvements made.

The Madison Meadows Golf Course in Ennis is swinging for $700,000 in donations, over two years, with its Tee-To-Green course improvement capital campaign. About three months into the campaign, it’s off to a good start with about $60,000 raised.

Twin Bridges city council approved to go digital at their monthly meeting June 11. They also approved for the Montana Department of Resources and Conservation and Great West Engineering to seek out grants to fund a feasibility study that would investigate the town’s levy.
