Barback offers Head Start space to host classes
A bar owner proposed using the back room for Head Start classes and to install a bathroom and lighting at an estimated cost of 1,000 dollars. About 12 parents agreed. The Montana Liquor Control Board will decide Sept. 20 whether a bar within 600 feet of a school can host classes, affecting East Missoula Bonner and Clinton pupils bused to Missoula in past years. George Richter criticized objections from Bonner churches and schools and stated the bar owner offered the space because parents had nowhere else to go.
