Here is a tennis update from Coach Dufresne:
I have not done a great job communicating the successes of this year’s tennis season. Life gets busy, and we do or we don’t. This season I didn’t.
I plan an end of the season update, but tonight, after a rain delayed (thank you Canyons Athletic Club!) scattered first day of divisional tennis, I just want to encourage anyone and everyone to come to the brand new high school tennis courts Wednesday anytime between 9:00 am and dinner time. Even if it’s only for a few minutes.
Come experience the atmosphere: the camaraderie, the effort, the wins and the losses, the joy, the tears. Come rub elbows with an amazing group of kids from Hamilton, Corvallis, Stevensville, Dillon and Ronan. Come experience a great community of coaches and parents. Just come.
You won’t regret it.

Last week, the Hamilton High School Classroom Without Walls (CWW) class attended a three-day field trip in Yellowstone National Park. We had an amazing experience and are so fortunate and grateful for the organizations that helped make this trip possible. We would like to recognize and thank Stock Farm Greater Ravalli Foundation, Hamilton High School FFE, and Bitterroot Climate Action Group for funding this trip.
Trip Overview - We stayed in Gardiner, Montana on the Yellowstone River at the North Yellowstone Lodge and Hostel. Here, we went fishing, made s’mores, played games, and cooked all of our meals. We spent one day in Yellowstone exploring the geology of YNP. We visited Norris Geyser Basin, Grand Prismatic Spring, Old Faithful, and finished the day with a hike to a waterfall. On Thursday, students woke up at 4AM to meet with a wolf biologist in the Lamar Valley. Here, we watched several wolves and a grizzly bear interact over a bison carcass. Later that morning, we met with a fisheries biologist near Canyon village to learn about the history of fish species in YNP, as well as current issues involving non-native fish. We then drove to Lewis and Clark Caverns and did a two hour cave tour before heading home.
Don't forget - HSD3 ballots are due by 8:00PM on Tuesday, May 6 to the Ravalli County Elections Office (215 S 4th St, Ste C). If you have not mailed your ballot already, you should hand deliver it on Monday, May 5 (8AM-5PM) or Tues, May 6 (7AM-8PM). Postmarks will not be taken into account.
