At Colstrip, Education is a Priority! COLSTRIP KIDS WIN!

by Robert "Bob" Lewandowski

UNOFFICIAL RESULTS

The community of Colstrip got out and made a statement about its priorities at the May 3, 2016 Election with their vote to support its educational systems. Kids are best served with support systems like this. I am very proud of this community and its on going support for education.

WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN OUT IN FRONT when it comes to educational support, AND IT LOOKS LIKE WE ARE STAYING THERE! Well done Colstrip! This is MAKING DUST!

GO COLTS! GO FILLIES! 

MAKE DUST OR EAT DUST!


"Get out in front and stay there!"
