This week, we're discussing:

• Winter Carnival!
• A new conservation effort along Highway 55
• An update on the Stibnite mine fight
• McCall Hospital District updates
• A national directive fired 42 local USFS employees. We interviewed people at the rally to discuss the impact.

As always, we've got sports (Girls' basketball heads to state! Go Vandals!), Weather from Todd Cook, and community events.
