Here's your local news at a glance for Tuesday, the 21st of October.
Good morning, Kalispell.
🏘️ Community
Crews placed several-ton boulders from LHC's gravel pit at the future site of Ashley Creek Park near U.S. highways 2 and 93 on October 20.
The Bibler family funds the project — next crews will plant vegetation and pave the walkways along the planned paths.
🎓 Education
Deer Park School booster club is fundraising for a new playground to replace its old, unsafe equipment that has injured students and limits play for older children.
Booster president Samantha Olson said the club has raised about $20,000 so far—though it still needs roughly $80,000 to install modern, accessible equipment.
🏛️ Government
The Montana Land Board approved phase two of the Montana Great Outdoors Conservation Easement in a 4-to-1 vote—protecting 53,000 acres between Kalispell and Libby.
This phase adds to last year's nearly 33,000-acre protection and ensures the land will stay open for public use and wildlife.

A recent article detailed homes selling for about $550,000 in the area.
The listings include a five-bedroom, two-bath duplex at 205 Rosewood Dr. with fresh paint, new flooring, updated HVAC and appliances — a two-bedroom home near River’s Edge Park in Columbia Falls with a fenced yard and bonus room — a two-bedroom lakeside retreat offering lake views on a 0.83-acre lot — and a one-bedroom mountain home in Kila set on 20 timbered acres.
