Board member Tony Hagadone constructed the bridge. Plum Creek donated more than 1000 to the cost of the bridge. Steve Matelli donated labor for installation of the lights. Lincoln Electric helped with the wiring and donated 2000 dollars to the lights and equipment. And the County repainted the crosswalk stripes. Everett is grateful. She said the cost to the school for these improvements has been about 500 dollars.&lt;/p&gt;

Yenter and Lowe were definitely enjoying themselves Wednesday as part of a two-day visit to Whitefish by Lowe and the remaining contestants. On the agenda were dinners at several local restaurants and a trip to Glacier National Park. Yenter was holding a rose when she arrived at the concert, which means she was assured of at least one more week on the show.&lt;/p&gt;

Muth was philosophical about the grizzlies: &Ograve;There are things that cannot be put into words. And the aura surrounding a wild grizzly bear is at the top of the list. Grizzlies are mythical, mystical and magnificent creatures. We are blessed to live in a place large enough and wise enough to be part of this breathtaking animal&Otilde;s recovery from the road to extermination ... thanks to farsighted conservationists and the Endangered Species Act.&Oacute;&Ecirc;&lt;/p&gt;
