Good morning, Helena.

Hundreds of Helena-area students experienced indigenous culture today at the Last Chance Community Pow Wow.

Tribes from the region performed traditional dances and teachers said the event helped students learn native traditions.

Former NFL quarterback Drew Bledsoe visited Shodair Children’s Hospital on Friday by donating $32,500 raised during the Ace Hardware Shootout—he met with the 2026 Champion Child, Luke, and will continue to support the hospital next year.

On Friday, former Carroll football players and coaches gathered at Nelson Stadium to watch a new documentary celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 4-peat championship team from the 2000s—sharing memories of brotherhood and urging current players to build their own legacy.

The event honored a deep bond among alumni while connecting past achievements with the team’s future aspirations.
