Who is that Masked Man?!?

Well, it ain’t the Lone Ranger, but he’s close as he spreads cheer
and good to the neighborhood. Kevin Taylor officially kicked
off his Buckin’ Rite Ice Cream season yesterday, cruising the
Glasgow streets with the music playing and bringing smiles to
all ages. He peddles Wilcoxson’s ice cream, a Montana-made
product since 1912, and it is some mighty tasty treats. Kevin
doesn’t have a fixed schedule: “As the weather allows and Carl Wilcoxson and a couple of friends making
where the Good Lord takes me,” he says, adding, “and I do a trip to Yellowstone Park prior to doing any

Walleye Spawn deemed success
despite major shortage of help
FWP Region 6 — The 2020 Fort Peck walleye
egg take operation and clean-up is complete.
Typically, nearly 100 volunteers participate in
this popular event. However, this year, due to the
“stay at home” orders issued by Governor Bullock
due to COVID-19, no volunteers participated.
Instead, the spawn was conducted by Region 6
fisheries and hatchery staff, along with other local
staff from Region 6, who followed guidelines to
ensure that employee safety was not compromised.
Without the assistance of volunteers, FWP
crews were instructed to conduct a quick and
efficient egg-take operation. In normal years, as
many as 20 trap nets are deployed to get sufficient
numbers of walleye. However, with the limited
crew, only around 10 nets were used.
Although weather conditions on the front
end of the spawn were unseasonably cold, a
gradual warming trend followed which triggered
a very successful spawn. Traps were fished from
April 8-18, and in this 10-day period, a total of 69
million walleye eggs were collected.
“Honestly, we got lucky and were in the
right spot at the right time this year,” said Heath
Headley, Fort Peck Reservoir biologist. “I wish
more years could be like that and the volunteers
could get to experience it firsthand too.”
31 million eggs went to the Miles City
hatchery, and 38 million eggs remained at the Fort
Peck hatchery. This number more than fulfills
the goal of collecting enough eggs to maximize
walleye fingerling production at the Fort Peck
and Miles City State Fish Hatcheries.
“We were lucky to get as many eggs as we
did,” said Wade Geraets, Fort Peck Hatchery
manager. “Usually we rely on eggs collected over
a longer amount of time during the spawn, in case
problems occur such as cold snaps, mechanical
failures, poor water quality, and many other
factors that could influence hatching and rearing
success.”
“So far, we are very fortunate that things
turned out the way they did. We look forward to
the volunteers helping us next year to help extend
the spawn collection,” added Geraets.

Visitation at State Parks, FASs sees increase during COVID-19

In any year, keeping state parks across Montana open
takes an all-hands-on-deck approach. But 2020 is proving
to be a particular challenge given increased visitation
during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many Montanans are
seeking outdoor adventures close to home, and state parks
provide a great destination.
Visitation at Montana State Parks has increased
through March and April, with some parks seeing summer
level crowds on the weekends. According to estimates
reported across the state park system, overall visitation
this March increased by more than 60 percent compared
with March of last year. A total of 151,911 individuals

Montana’s Wildlife Management Areas will be opening

many amenities that they are accustomed to will not be

Selvigs dominate C hoops
By Mike Brandt
The Selvig name is very well known in Eastern
Montana. From Robin to Randy to Dave to Sandy,
and Doug. They all played for the Outlook Blue Jays.
This is the only family in Montana that was named
MVP’s in a state tournament.
Robin was MVP in 1970, Randy in 1973, Sandy
in 1976 and 77, and Doug in 1980. Robin set a
tournament record with 112 points in three games.
Outlook lost a Saturday morning loser out game to
Saco, 82-67.
Robin, who went on to have an excellent
coaching career with the Montana Lady Griz,
started the tradition. But he never played on a state
championship for the Blue Jays. Outlook went to
state twice with Robin leading the team. Outlook
went 0-2 in 1969 with Robin scoring 54 points in two
games. 1970 was the year he set the record, scoring
48 against Hingham, 25 against Manhattan Christian
and 39 against Saco.
Randy led Outlook to a third place finish in
1973, scoring 23 points in a 55-54 win over Twin
Bridges in a rematch as Outlook was demolished by
Twin Bridges, 82-42, in the first round. Selvig had 21
points in that game. He had 22 in a 64-57 win over
Custer and 30 in a 58-46 victory over Frazer.
Dave and Doug led the Blue Jays to a state
championship in 1978, defeating Manhattan
Christian 55-51. Neither was named to the All-State
team. Doug was the MVP in 1980 when Outlook
defeated Opheim, 44-35. The Blue Jays also beat
Florence, 76-56, and Hobson, 48-38. Doug scored 73
points in three games.
Outlook’s first trip to state was in 1958, going 0-2.
The Blue Jays were third in 1962 and were 1-2 in 1982.
Sandy led Outlook to back-to-back championships,
which will be in another story in a later issue.
There were other teams from the Eastern C that
won crowns as well. As you read in my part one story,
Flaxville won in 1976 and 79. The Cardinals also took
third in 1984.
Westby won in 1872, defeating Sheridan 55-54
with Neil Peterson scoring 32 points. Allen Nielson
led the Rangers to the 1975 crown mover Antelope,
65-45. Westby’s first trip was in 1956.
Westby has played for the crown two other times,
but that has been with a co-op with Grenora, N.D.
Now Mon-Dak, the Thunder lost to Roy-Winifred
66-39 in 2013 and to Box Elder 74-54 in 2014.
Scobey spent a number of years in Class B
playing most of the teams they now play in Class
C. The Spartans won the title in 1979, defeating
Plentywood 69-58. They were led by Dan Danelson
and Gerry Veis. Danelson, a 6-foot-5 post, averaged
25 points a game in the tournament. The only loss
the Spartans had been the Sidney. Scobey also won
three times in Class C, including a share of the crown
this year. The first championship came in 1996,
defeating Gardiner, 70-38.
The Spartans teamed up with Opheim to win the
crown in 2011, defeating Arlee 55-47. Scobey were
picked to win another crown in 1997, but a severe
snow storm made it impossible to travel to Billings.
Five of the players and the coach were flown to the
tournament, playing shorthanded, the Spartans
finished third.
Scobey’s first trip to the big dance was in 1947,
winning its first game at state min 1948.
Fairview also spent time in Class B, never
winning a crown. The Warriors won their first
championship in 2012, beating Highwood, 51-33,
for the Class C crown. Nashua grad Luke Kloker
coached the Warriors. He also coached them to the
2015 title game, losing to Belt, 61-39.
Fairview first trip to state was in 1920 when all
schools participated.
Brockton edged Big Sandy, 66-64, for the 2004
championship. The Warriors made their first trip in
1939. The Warriors also placed third in 1966.
Next I will look at how well Saco, Opheim,
Frazer and Whitewater fared at state tournaments.
It is interesting. Will also look at girls’ hoops and
Glasgow’s success.
