POLSON — The banks, courthouse, USPS, county offices, etc. will be closed for the federal holiday honoring Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday, Jan. 15. We will be open. See below for the menu. Because of print deadlines, I am writing this ahead of the Jan. 7 National Championship (FCS) football game. It is great to see a Montana team reach that level of competition. Win or lose, my heart will always be with Montana teams. Especially those near Polson. Just saying.
