  • Rodney Atkins and Ned LeDoux Headline RIDE 2024

    Mike Morgan|Apr 17, 2024

    Rodney Atkins is coming to Roundup, Montana for RIDE’s 19th celebration with some nice country music record achievements in his back pocket, and it’s something that any artist would love to have. His 2019 single “Caught Up in the Country” spent more time on the charts that any other single in the history of country music. For 57 weeks, it stayed on the charts, which is remarkable since most record labels try to get radio stations to move on to their next song project after the song peaks. However, the radio stations couldn’t get enough of...

  • The Democrat Open Border's Plan to Entrench Single-Party Rule

    Harold Pease PhD|Apr 17, 2024

    With the 320,000 illegals aliens flown by the Biden government into the country by-passing the border wall and laws of the land intentionally, it is obvious the Democrat Party is now not only encouraging but participating in, the invasion of its own country. It is also transforming the Democrat Party into the permanent single-party rule. So shows a once devout Democrat voter, Elon Musk, in a new 2:00 minute video “The Democrat Open Border’s Plan to Entrench Single-Party Rule Explained in Two Minuets,” that all Americans should watch befor...

  • Happy Fortune: To Walk and To Run

    Apr 17, 2024

    By Edith Sloan It is my happy fortune to be living in Roundup. This is true for several reasons and one of those is that many people take daily walks here in town. Individuals walk, couples walk, pairs and three-somes walk, along with dog-owners taking their pets. There is a move to create a program where more residents can participate in walking—running. This week of April 14-20, we are starting an effort that would encourage groups of interested people from Roundup and the surrounding area to create pairs, groups, or even individuals to walk-...
