The Three Forks Football Team Store is LIVE!
Get your gear for the season now.
Link: https://bsnteamsports.com/shop/bxRpdpmbyj
Dates: 5/27-6/3
Notes: BSN Short Sleeve T tends to run a bit big. I would size down when purchasing that. Nike tends to run a bit small, for first time Nike buyers I would go a size up.
Shop Access Code:
Delivery: Right now, shops are operating at about a 4-5 week turn time once shop closes. Of course, I will update as the shop progresses so you can keep fans and athletes in the loop if they ask.
Summer is almost here, which means it is time to start thinking about fair season! Three Three Forks FFA members attended the Braaten Show Pigs Bootcamp this weekend. Heidi Hutchison, Kaydence Jensen, and Griffin Jensen spent the day learning about showmanship, feed, and general care of their livestock projects, so that they can provide a quality product for you to bid on this summer!
Great job, Three Forks FFA Livestock Showmen.
Register by the end of Tuesday (5/27) to secure your camp t-shirt! We can't wait to be in the gym with you all!

What a fantastic season wolves!!
On Friday the drivers education class got to experience both a school bus and snow plows from a bus and plow drivers' perspecive. Craig brought in a school bus (sorry Craig, I didn't get any photos) and Ace and Chad came with a couple snow plows.
Here is a list of what we learned:
1. The 6' arm with the flashing stop sign was mandated by law in 2021 because a then-six-year-old was hit after getting off the school bus in Whitefish in 2019.
2. Snow plow drivers need to go 35 mph or under while sanding because if they go faster, the sand just flies off the road and is wasted.
3. Yes, they want you to follow at a distance (about 200 feet), but they also want you to drive on the freshly sanded road behind them so you are helping their sand stay on the road and do its job. And if you do that, they might even give you extra sand because they appreciate you.
4. The local-to-Three Forks plows are responsible for 600 lane-miles of road. When it is snowing, they plow in 12-hour shifts, day and night.
5. One of our local drivers was a Montana Trooper for 20 years and during that time was only hit once in his patrol car. Since he started plowing (for significantly less than 20 years), he has been hit twice.
6. If you hit his plow AND the guard rail, he is going to be double frustrated with you because now his plow is probably needing repair AND he also has to fix the guard rail since that is also their responsibility.
7. If you get too close and irritate them, you could get sand-blasted. Literally.
8. The local MTDT maintenance station is fully staffed and recently got a new tow plow. It has been dubbed Elizabeth. Only Chad names his plows. Ace does not.
9. They really are just trying to make your life safer, not just driving slowly down the road because they are being entitled jerks, so don't crowd the plow. We live in Montana. People understand that sometimes snow delays or even cancels plans. Being patient will keep you and everyone else safe and alive. Help them do their job. They are good at it.
Day 1 of state complete! We end day 1 with two State Runner Up finishers with Cass Violett in the 3200, and Maya Noble in the Pole Vault. Way to go wolves!

A little learning outside of the classroom! The Three Forks Horticulture Class took a trip to do some landscaping, learned about tree planting, did a little farm work, and was a great bunch of workers!
