Editor,
On Friday, Jan. 27, Mr. Bud Cheff Jr. and his wife Laurel appeared at the Big Arm Schoolhouse as our guest speakers. It was the first Big Arm Association potluck social of the year.
With a packed crowd, after dining, Bud took center stage and the hearts of all in attendance. He mentioned that he didn’t follow his planned talk. He just seemed to go back in time, telling an appreciative audience of the personal experiences growing up when the West was still wild. He always loved listening to the stories of the elder Native folk, and he related some of those stories too. There was seldom heard any sound made except when questions were asked.
Bud’s lovely wife Laurel brought to our attention that as our association is challenged in raising vital funds to continue on our work on the school, they also are desperately needing funds to save the Ninepipes Museum of Early Montana.
We would encourage everyone to visit the museum on Highway 93 in Charlo for some wonderfully preserved history and hair-raising stories of the past, never to be repeated.
For a visit to the Big Arm School, call (406) 871-2823.
