WORLAND – Big Horn Federal Savings Bank in Worland, located at 1006 Big Horn Avenue, is still in a temporary facility while the former bank building was removed this summer and replaced with a new, upgraded and larger building. Construction is scheduled to be completed by November, by Hughes Truss of Worland, and the bank operations should be fully moved in by January. “The new building should be a pretty good deal,” said Branch Manager Tad DeBolt. “We’re going to have a larger building and technology to prepare us for the next 20 years of...
TEN SLEEP – Longtime Shell resident Mary Flitner has achieved what most people dream of, not only writing a book but also getting her book accepted by the first publisher that she sent it to. Her book "My Ranch Too, a Wyoming Memoir" came out at the beginning of September and is already available in local libraries, book stores and major internet sites. "It was kind of a hobby for a long time. I kept journals since the 1970s just for the fun of it. It was mostly trivia about the weather and s...

WORLAND - Senior night did not go as planned for the Worland Warriors football team as they lost their final home game of the season to the Torrington Trailblazers 42-14, Friday night at Worland High School. Worland's (3-4) start wasn't the greatest either, as on their first possession of the game they fumbled the ball and Torrington (7-0) recovered on the Worland 25. The Trailblazers quickly capitalized on the turnover to go up 7-0. Torrington scored the games next two touchdowns, one of which...
I've never done predictions for the NBA, I'm not sure why either, but now is the time to correct this wrong. Just like with my spot on, perfect, no need to go check, NFL predictions. These NBA predictions will be just as fearless and courageous, and possibly the most daring in all of sports media. I've looked at each team's roster, coach, front office, offseason moves and have come to an accurate gut feeling for each of the NBA's 30 teams. Rather than predict each team's exact record, I'm going...

Kenny was born at home in Bonanza, WY March 22, 1933 during a Wyoming blizzard. He was the son of Alfred Edward Ilg and Ester Olive Ilg (Wilson).
