Is St. Charles a haunted house? by Rebecca Coulter Staff Writer The bathroom on Fourth Main in St. Charles is boarded up because it is rumored to be haunt ed after a young man cracked his head open on the sink and died. This is just one of many ghost stories that Carroll has to offer. Just think how many more there are throughout the Helena community. Sunday, March 20 there was a ghost tour adventure, which unleashed the hauntings of not only Carroll College, but the rest of the city as well. Lee Holmes of Last Chance Tour Train & Trolley and Montana Historical Society's Ellen Baumler offered tours of Helena's ghost past at 6 p.m. and 8 p.m. The tour required a pre-regis tration and a $5 fee. “The tours are worth the cost,” said Tim Carroll, senior Carroll student who attended the ghost tour. After going on the tour, Carroll said, “It is interesting to find out about these weird phe nomena in our little community.” Tour guide Ellen Baumler took people through Helena’s ghost past. As the author of “Spirit Tailings,” Ellen is the resident authority of ghosts of Helena. On this ghost tour she shared sto ries about Catholic Hill, Carroll College, and Grand Street Theater, and a walk through the Benton Avenue Cemetery. If you have any questions, or are interested in unveiling these ghost stories call the Last Chance Tour Train Trolley headquarters 1- 888-423-1023 to find out about the secret hauntings that Helena and Carroll College have to offer. “It is interesting to find out about these weird phenomena in our little community.” NEW AWARD LETTER PROCESS FOR ACADEMIC YEAR 2005-2006 F in a n c ia l a id a w a r d letters w il l be AVAILABLE ONLINE BEGINNING MARCH 1,2005, if the F in a n c ia l A id O ffice h a s r e c e ived yo u r pro c e s s e d FAFSA RESULTS.
