HELENA – Waterfowl season across Montana opens on Sept. 28, which is a reminder for hunters and bird enthusiasts alike about the importance of wetland habitat for migrating waterfowl and other wetland dependent species.  

This year Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks launched a new Migratory Bird Stamp to help raise awareness about the importance of wetland habits across the state. The new stamp is commemorative only and not required to hunt in Montana. Every person who purchases a 2024 Migratory Bird Stamp will receive a free collectable sticker showing the winning artwork, information about the Migratory Bird Wetland Program and information about how to make additional contributions. 

The new Migratory Bird Stamp also helps to raise awareness about the work FWP does with private landowners and other conservation partners to conserve and enhance wetland habitat. FWP’s Migratory Bird Wetland Program helps landowners and other conservation partners develop and fund projects that conserve, enhance, restore or create high-quality wetland habitat. 

Wetland restoration projects are critical for many wildlife and aquatic species and for agriculture operation enhancements like flood control, groundwater recharge, stock water management, irrigation efficiencies and dependable water sources. (To see more about how this program works for landowners and wildlife, click here to watch a recent video.) 

The art contest for the 2025 Montana Migratory Bird Stamp will begin in October. More information on this contest will be issued in the coming weeks.  

The new stamp program is supported by conservation partners the Montana Outdoor Legacy Foundation, Montana Backcountry Hunters and Anglers and Montana Audubon. These organizations contributed to the prize money for the 2024 art contest as well as help to promote the Migratory Bird Wetland Program.

BOZEMAN - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has recognized Bridger Bowl Ski Area of Bozeman,  Montana for demonstrating leadership in innovative pollution prevention (P2) practices which reduce, eliminate or prevent pollution at its source prior to recycling, treatment or disposal.

Bridger Bowl is among three winners of Region 8's 2024 Regional Pollution Prevention Recognition Awards and is the only ski area to receive the award which extends across all businesses and industries. 

"EPA's Pollution Prevention Recognition program celebrates businesses that have incorporated pollution prevention measures into their practices," said EPA Regional Administrator KC Becker. "Today's awardees' efforts are a testament to the fact that we can reduce environmental impacts and create efficiencies, all while saving money and strengthening economic growth." During the award ceremony she added, " There are not many nonprofits in the country that have these, so huge congratulation to you."

Bridger Bowl Ski Area was recognized for reducing electricity use through LED and motion-activated lighting, installing an on-site 50 kW solar array and implementing a transit and carpooling incentivizing program that is free for guests and employees. Additionally, the ski area replaced petroleum-based ski wax, which contains Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) using WEND wax instead, which is a plant-based alternative. These projects resulted in annual savings of 76.3 Metric Tons of CO2 and over $9,000 in annual cost savings.

"Bridger Bowl Ski Area's commitment to sustainability through the protection of land, staff and guests is a significant part of our strategic planning and vision," said Bonnie Hickey, Sustainability Director at Bridger Bowl. "Therefore we are thrilled to be recognized by the EPA for our pollution prevention and money-saving energy and resource efficiency efforts."

Living with chronic renal failure can be overwhelming. The kidneys are such a crucial part of the body, and it feels incomprehensible when they begin to malfunction. However, managing the condition does not have to mean giving up on living a full and happy life. In fact, with a modicum of knowledge, the right tools, and an effective plan, one can take responsibility for their health and continue to do what is enjoyed. Below are ten key facts to get you started:

1. What Is Chronic Renal Failure?
First, let's define what chronic renal failure is. It is a long-standing disease whereby your kidneys gradually lose the ability to filter waste from your blood. Causes include anything from diabetes to high blood pressure, even genetics. It is a slow-moving condition; this means that you will have enough time to learn how to manage it, but early detection becomes necessary so that you may act before the condition worsens.

2. The Early Signs Not to Be Overlooked
Do you ever feel overtly tired? Perhaps you retain more fluid than usual, or cannot catch your breath quite as easily. These are just a few of the common early signs and symptoms of CRF. Your body is trying to tell you something. If any of these symptoms sound like you, then it's better to be safe than sorry; have a talk with your doctor before it's too late. The sooner you catch it, the better off you are with managing the disease.

3. Watch What You Eat—and Drink!
The diet also plays a part in treating chronic renal failure. It is not all about reducing junk food, though; there is actually more to watch out for, like potassium, phosphorus, and sodium. Ever wondered why your doctor is so strict about salt? This is because too much sodium can raise your blood pressure, further stressing your kidneys. And then, there are fluids. It may sound strange, but there are times when you need to restrict how much you drink, given your condition.

4. Medications and Treatments You Might Need
If you are living with CRF, you're likely to encounter a handful of medications. Blood pressure medications are common, as are diuretics to help with the fluid buildup in your body, and even phosphate binders to help manage minerals in your blood. If the condition progresses further, dialysis may become an option. It's not fun to think about, but dialysis can be a lifesaver by filtering your blood when your kidneys cannot.

5. Don't Forget About Your Mental Health
Living with a chronic condition like CRF is not only stressful on the body but can also be mentally challenging. Feeling anxious, stressed, or even depressed? It's understandable. For this reason, mental health becomes of utmost importance. This may include speaking to a therapist and trying mindfulness techniques such as meditation, along with a host of other methods. Seeking support from others is important—you don't have to handle everything by yourself.

6. Other Pain Management Alternatives
Chronic pain is one of the most difficult aspects of living with CRF. As effective as conventional drugs are, many individuals today seek alternative treatments. Did you know that, in Washington, where the use of marijuana is completely legalized, more and more patients are opting to apply for a Washington medical marijuana card online? Medical marijuana can help with pain management, anxiety, and even sleep—without some of the harsher side effects of prescription medications. Plus, having a card can give you access to higher-quality, medical-grade options that can make a big difference in how you feel day-to-day.

7. Stay Active, Stay Strong
Yes, exercise! I know it sounds exhausting when you're already dealing with fatigue, but light physical activity can actually help boost your energy level and overall mood. Think simple: walking, yoga, or swimming. Even just 20 minutes a day can make a noticeable difference. You don't have to be training for a marathon—just do what works for you and stick with it.

8. Keep Up with Regular Checkups
Medical checkups will become a way of life for a person living with CRF. In fact, you’ll be visiting your healthcare provider so often that regular blood and urine tests to monitor kidney function will become routine. These visits are a great time to ask questions and talk about changes in symptoms, if any. The more informed you are, the better you can take care of your condition.

9. Preparing for Dialysis or a Transplant
For some, chronic renal failure may eventually progress to the point of end-stage renal disease, where dialysis or a kidney transplant is required. Scary? Maybe. But here's some encouraging news: thanks to modern medicine, both dialysis and transplants are safer and more effective than ever. Knowing what's involved and preparing mentally and physically can make the process less overwhelming and give you greater confidence.

10. Build Your Support System
Living with a chronic illness does not mean you have to go it alone. Surround yourself with a solid support network, and it can make all the difference. Your family, friends, and health professionals are all part of your team. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. Also, consider joining a support group where others understand exactly what you're going through. It’s comforting to share your experience with people who get it.

Wrapping It Up
Managing CRF is a challenge, but it’s far from impossible. With the right mix of medical care, lifestyle modifications, and support, you can continue living life on your terms. Stay informed, stay proactive, and don't be afraid to explore all your options—including getting a Washington medical marijuana card online—to make this journey easier with both traditional treatments and alternative therapies. You've got this!

Bozeman Parks & Recreation, Bozeman Public Library, and MSU College of Education, Health, and Human Development partner to create event focused on movement, nature, and storytelling


BOZEMAN — Starting Sept. 20, readers from all walks of life will be able to enjoy stories in both English and Spanish via a new Literacy Trail in Bozeman Pond Park. Visitors will be able to stop at kiosks throughout the park during park hours of 5 a.m. to 11 p.m. to read a picture book a few pages at a time.

Members of the public are also invited to celebrate the installation of the Trail with story times and crafts on Friday, Sept. 20 from 1 to 2 p.m., and again when a new story is launched on Friday, Nov. 15 from 1 to 2 p.m. The events and stories are geared towards children ages 2 to 7 and their caregivers.

“This trail is a fun, free activity that people can enjoy on their own time and during our installation celebrations,” Library Youth Services Department Head Ellie Newell stated. “You don’t need to bring anything, and you can participate by simply following the trail from kiosk to kiosk. We hope everyone can join in!”

The Literacy Trail was created by a partnership between Bozeman Parks and Recreation, Bozeman Public Library, and MSU College of Education, Health, and Human Development. The first story is “Duck on a Bike” by David Shannon and stories will change every other month.

“We’re excited to be able to host these stories in the park,” Bozeman Recreation Manager Jamie Saitta said. “It encourages movement, time in nature, coming together and teaching kids that reading is fun!”

Those interested in visiting the Literacy Trail are encouraged to start at the north parking lot next to Lewis & Bark Park off Fowler Ave.

BOZEMAN – Montana State University has become the first university in the history of the state to enroll more than 17,000 students, while also seeing record four-year graduation rates and a record high rate of students staying in school to complete their degrees.

MSU’s fall headcount is 17,144, an increase of 1% over last fall’s total, which was itself a record at 16,978. Montana State is the largest university in the four-state region that includes Wyoming and the Dakotas.

The university welcomed 3,611 new, first-time college students this fall — among them are 1,497 Montana residents. Montana students make up 49% of the entire student body, a count of 8,369 — the largest number of Montana residents enrolled at any college or university in the state. In all, MSU enrolled 15,053 undergraduate students, a record, and 2,091 graduate students.

MSU saw record enrollment across multiple demographic categories as well. The number of American Indian/Alaska Native students set a record at 856, an increase of 5% over last year. The university also set records for the number of students who are Hispanic (1,119), Asian (731), African American (321) and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander (143).

“Enrollment is perhaps the most highly visible sign of how we are fulfilling Montana State’s land-grant mission to expand higher education access to as many of our citizens as possible,” said MSU President Waded Cruzado. “We celebrate enrollment records because college degrees change lives and because education is the key to individual prosperity and a strong American democracy.”

In addition to record headcount, MSU set a record in full-time equivalent, or FTE, enrollment at 15,586. FTE is calculated by dividing the total credits taken by all MSU students by 15, which is the number of credits considered to be “full-time.” A high FTE enrollment is a sign that students are taking more courses per semester.

“Taking more demanding courseloads means that students consistently make progress toward their degrees,” said Steve Swinford, MSU’s vice president for student success. He pointed out that graduating in less time also means students leave with less college debt.

That’s why MSU has, for more than a decade, been urging students to take at least 15 credits per semester, a push known as the Freshman 15. Any credits a student takes beyond their first 12 per semester do not add to their tuition bill, so 15 or 18 credits cost the same tuition as 12.

“We call it the Freshman 15, but it’s something we encourage all students to do,” Swinford said. “All MSU students can save money and graduate faster by taking part, and since 2011 we’ve gone from having less than half of MSU students taking at least 15 credits to two-thirds of them doing so today.”

A total of 87% of incoming freshmen and 67% of all MSU students are taking part in the Freshman 15, both records.

MSU’s student retention rate increased this fall to a modern record of 78.4%. That measures the number of students who return for their second fall at MSU and is considered highly predictive of student success and eventual graduation.

“There is a real sense of energy on campus this fall,” said Robert Mokwa, MSU’s provost and executive vice president for academic affairs. “The students are excited to be here to begin their college journeys, and that excitement is due in no small part to the enthusiasm and dedication of our faculty and instructors who work every day to make MSU the best it can be for our students.”

Retention is also affected by the services and programs that students have available to them on campus, from academic advising and tutoring to health and wellness facilities. Swinford pointed to the newly opened Student Wellness Center on campus as one example. The center offers a single, convenient location for wellness needs ranging from medical and dental care to counseling to physical fitness.

“At MSU, we work to keep our students safe and healthy,” he said. “They’ve individually faced a lot of barriers, and we strive to provide a combination of supports to help them succeed.”

As the largest university in Montana, MSU continues to play a vital role in meeting the state’s workforce needs. Accordingly, MSU saw record enrollment in Gallatin College MSU, the university’s two-year programs which prepare students for immediate employment in in-demand fields. Gallatin College MSU enrolled 1,101 students, an increase of 22%.

"MSU graduates are the backbone of industries critical to Montana’s economy," Cruzado said. "We take seriously our responsibility to ensure students leave here equipped with the skills and knowledge to make meaningful contributions to their communities."

MSU awarded a record number of degrees last academic year at 3,657, and the university set new records for graduation rates. MSU’s four-year graduation rate rose to a record 40.8%, and its five-year rate was a record 54.9%. MSU’s six-year rate, a figure tracked by the federal government, held at 57%.

Other facts about MSU’s fall enrollment:
In all, 4,537 students are living in MSU’s residence halls, and 948 individuals are living in MSU Student Apartments. Approximately one quarter of MSU’s students live in on-campus housing.

MSU welcomed 401 dual-enrollment students, up from 245 last fall. Dual-enrollment allows Montana high school students to earn college credit and get a jump start on their degrees. Dual-enrollment credits at MSU are housed in Gallatin College MSU.
MSU enrolled 579 students who are receiving veteran benefits, a 4% increase.
The university enrolled 138 students who received the Montana University System Honor Scholarship, accounting for 65% of all the award’s recipients in the state.
The Jake Jabs College of Business and Entrepreneurship also set an enrollment record at 2,306 students.

MSU’s largest college is Letters and Science with 3,500 students, followed by the Norm Asbjornson College of Engineering with 3,406; the Jake Jabs College of Business and Entrepreneurship with 2,306; Agriculture with 1,978; Education, Health and Human Development with 1,641; the Mark and Robyn Jones College of Nursing with 1,234; and Arts and Architecture with 1,186.

The fall headcount is tallied after the 15th day of classes each semester.
