Instead, it is filled with anxiety and dread because not only will they not be sporting new Air Jordans, but they may not have any new clothes or supplies at all. Not school supplies.

Billings and Kalispell Teams, Hospitals Unite to Stop the Stigma
Two teams, two towns, and two hospitals are coming together to "stop the stigma" and to support suicide prevention efforts here in Montana. Billings and Kalispell, Montana both serve as hosts to a couple of great baseball stadiums. I've visited both ballparks in the past week and a half. Dehler Park in Billings has the rims in the backdrop, and the Glacier Range Riders stadium in Kalispell- wow. The range, the mountains, and the pine trees in the background are hard to beat. You would enjoy just sitting in the Range Riders' Glacier Bank Park stadium- even if a baseball game wasn't taking place.
