That’s because all 370 or so BSSD students and most of their teachers, K-12, were seated in the bleachers at once. It wasn’t to watch a sport- ing event. Or even catch some rays. No, the entire school district was outside eating apples. The event was part of a statewide campaign known as Montana A future ski throne. PHOTO COURTESY BIG SKY RESORT Crunch Time, which celebrated Food Day and National Farm to School Month by inviting Montana students to crunch into locally and regionally grown apples. The idea caught the eye of BSSD’s Wellness Have a seat Committee, which, thanks to an apple donation by the Moonlight Community Foundation, made it happen in Big Sky. The first four of 64 total chairs destined for the state-of-the-art Ramcharger 8 lift were delivered to Big Sky Resort last week. Each —JP eight-seater chair is 15 feet wide, 13 feet tall and weighs over a ton. That’s roughly the weight of four adult grizzly bears, in case you were measuring in omnivorous mountain animals. The 4.19-foot deep bubbles on each chair will protect lift-riders from the elements, and heated seats, individual footrests and headrests round out the lift experience. Oh, and the custom luxury seats endured quite the trip to get to Big Sky—originating from over 5,000 miles away at Doppelmeyer’s seat producing facility, Gassner Stahlbbau in Austria. Ramcharger 8 will start turning in December 2018.

Republicans already held 31 governor- ships to the Democrats’ 18—Alaska Gov.
