Hinsdale Receives
New Ambulance
by Dorothy Jensen
On July 31st the
Hinsdale Volunteer Ambu-
lance Service hosted an
appreciation breakfast.
We wanted to show our
gratitude to those that
contributed to the new
2020 ambulance that finally
arrived the last week in
June!
Our goal to replace the
1996 ambulance has been in
the works for the past seven
years. As we started to
reach our goal there would
be an unexpected financial
need that would arise. It felt
like we were so close and
then another setback.
But as crew member
Jamie Mix said, “Take a leap
of faith with me!”
Suddenly everything
began to fall into place;
unforeseen funds were
coming in and WE DID IT!
The 2020 ambulance
is a Ford F350 Super Duty
4x4 Crestline that has many Future EMTs? Very possible! Dorothy Jensen’s granddaughters Kallen Jensen,

Outbreak starting, again
By Mike Brandt
We went through a few months without hearing a
lot about COVID-19. Now that fall sports and school is
starting we all of a sudden are hearing more about the
virus.
Isn’t it funny how we will go all this time, three or
four months or more, and now there is an increase of
COVID virus outbreak. The reason for that is the media
will report it only when they want to. It’s kept from us
until now just to scare all of us.
You watch, fall sports and school will start, then
another huge outbreak will start and Montana High
School Association will step in and cancel the fall sports
season and kids are going to distance learning, again.
MHSA was wrong when they canceled the 2020
state basketball tournaments. After all, the fans were
already at the tournaments and people were mingling
for two or three days. So why cancel the last day?
Now we have another virus that’s going to put a stop
to things. Did you know the carriers of the Delta variant
virus are the fully vaccinated people. That’s right. If you
got both vaccinations for COVID then you are a carrier
of the Delta variant virus.

sequencing.
Now we will see if there is an outbreak of COVID-19
and this delta variant in the next couple of months.
This is a way for the government to control us.
However, God is still in control. That is a load off
of my mind knowing that God is in control. Biden and
Pelosi are not in control. They will get what is coming to
them in the end.
