Aynur Toylyyeva, a foreign exchange student from Turkmenistan, is raising funds for the homeless as part of her school project at East Helena High.
She set up donation jars in the school office with a fun twist— the class member with the most donations gets pied in the face and she has already raised $90.

Copper Dog will offer a new sausage-centered menu after replacing burgers at the repurposed Custer Ave drive-thru trailer previously used by Copperline Smashburger, according to the owner.
The change will bring a fresh twist to local fast food.
🎭 Culture
The storied Cattle Baron Supper Club, a community hub with deep Blackfeet cultural ties, suffered a devastating fire but vows to rebuild soon.
