Our summertime reading program and Monoporead game are in full swing so crowds of kids are to be expected, but there are lots of adults ... Read More »

Be the first to comment!Radio Ramblings: ‘Seinfeld’ turns 30
By Trapper John on July 18th, 2019
I know it just means I’m getting old – but realizing the show “Seinfeld” turned 30 earlier this month threw me for a bit of a loop. I grew up loving sitcoms, from the antics on “Three’s Company” and misunderstandings of Jack, Janet, revolving door roommate No. 3, Furley/The Ropers, and Larry at the Regal ... Read More »

Be the first to comment!Kissel ready for everything Stampede has to offer
By Chris Brown on July 18th, 2019
cbrown@medicinehatnews.com@MHNBrown Brett Kissel knows exactly who deserves the credit for his success. The fans.

This is the beginning of my annual rekindling with the natural world. It’s a cyclical affair, both turbulent and vivacious, with ... Read More »
