Here's your local news at a glance for Wednesday, the 17th of December.
Good morning, Helena.
🏘️ Community
The Montana Jewish Project hosted a Hanukkah celebration today despite grief over a deadly attack at Bondi Beach that left residents struggling to embrace the holiday.
Community members noted that the tragedy surpassed the spirit of hope (amid a wave of antisemitic incidents locally).
💼 Business
Martin’s Wines closed abruptly on Helena’s walking mall, leaving wine club members frustrated as charges continued after the store shuttered (customers report missing credits and no response from the owner).
The Office of Consumer Protection is now receiving reports to investigate the issue.
🌲 Environment
The Western Montana Conservation Commission announced $2 million in EPA funding for green stormwater projects that will transform the Missoula Public Library’s rooftop into a living roof and revamp Father Sheehan Park in Butte-Silver Bow.
Updates on the projects will come as they progress.
🏥 Health
Helena-based Hands on Global delivered essential medical supplies to a regional hospital in Ukraine + treating wounded soldiers and civilians.
