UFC From A Britton Farmhouse

UFC From A Britton Farmhouse

Amber (Andrews) Bowen works from home. Her office is in the corner of her basement in a farmhouse west of Britton. Her two computer monitors sit against the cinderblock wall. Occasionally she has to bang on her washing machine if it gets too loud while she’s on a meeting. While this situation might sound typical these days, especially in a post-COVID shutdown world, Bowen works for a company that you might not imagine a small-town South Dakota girl would work for: Ultimate Fighting Championship, better known as UFC. 02/01/2023 12:00 AM

Flexible And Fun: Area Schools Need Subs

“The shortage of substitute teachers, both in quantity and quality, across the country has never been more severe,” wrote Geoffrey Smith, director of the Substitute Teacher Training Institute, in a 2022 article for the National School Superintendents Association website. Though Smith penned those words last year, the issue remains and is true for South Dakota as well: There are not enough substitute teachers to go around. Yet, area principals say that it can be a great job for many reasons and invite local people to learn more about the position. 01/25/2023 12:00 AM
