🏒 COMMITTED: KARSYN LAMBRECHT #13 ⛏️

Another sweater has been claimed. 🔥

And we’re keeping this one close to home, too.

Montana Tech Women’s Hockey is excited to announce #13 Karsyn Lambrecht as our next committed player! 💚🧡💚

📍 Hometown: Butte, Montana
🏒 Position: Right Wing
🥅 Last Teams: Havre Ice Hawks & Copper City Kings
🎓 Major: Construction Technology Management
💃 Fun Fact: Before hockey, Karsyn spent 11 years as a competitive dancer!

For Karsyn, Montana Tech offers something unique.
Why Montana Tech?

“Highlands College is the only school in Montana to have my major, with the hands-on learning I was looking for right here in my hometown.”

And a quote Karsyn lives by:

“Don’t ever give up on something you think of every day.”

From competitive dance to hockey, from the Copper City Kings and Havre Ice Hawks to Montana Tech Women’s Hockey, Karsyn certainly knows something about going after what you want. 🔥

Now she gets to do it while representing her hometown and helping build a brand-new chapter of women’s hockey in Butte.

Welcome to Montana Tech Women’s Hockey, Karsyn! #13 is officially claimed. 🏒⛏️

And Digger fans…

We’re not done yet. 👀

Another sweater is waiting for its reveal.

COMMITTED: KAITRIN MCMILLAN #11 ⛏️

Another sweater has been claimed. 🔥

And this time, one of Butte’s own is staying home.

Montana Tech Women’s Hockey is excited to welcome #11 Kaitrin McMillan to the Orediggers! 💚🧡💚

📍 Hometown: Butte, Montana
🛡️ Position: Defense
🏒 Last Team: Copper City Kings
🎓 Major: Associate of Science
🎣 Fun Fact: When she’s not at the rink, there’s a good chance you’ll find Kaitrin fishing!

For Kaitrin, choosing Montana Tech means getting the opportunity to represent a school that has been part of her hometown and part of her life for as long as she can remember.

Why Montana Tech?

“I chose Montana Tech because it’s in my hometown, and I’ve wanted to be an Oredigger all my life.”

From growing up in Butte and playing for the Copper City Kings to now having the opportunity to put on a Montana Tech sweater, we’re excited to have Kaitrin helping build the future of Oredigger Women’s Hockey right here at home. ⛏️🏒

Welcome to Montana Tech Women’s Hockey, Kaitrin!

🚨 COMMITTED: JAYDYN MASON #8 🚨

From the Alaskan interior to the Mining City… the journey comes full circle. ⛏️🏒

We’re kicking off our Montana Tech Women’s Hockey player announcements with #8 — Jaydyn Mason! 💚🧡

📍 Hometown: Cantwell, Alaska → Wasilla, Alaska → Butte, Montana
Grew up in Alaska and finished her high school journey in Butte.

🏒 Position: Center / Left Wing

🥅 Last Teams: Butte Jr. Irish High School Team & Alaska North Stars 19U Girls AA

🎓 Major: Nursing

⭐ FUN FACT:
Jaydyn started her hockey career on defense and played there for four years before moving up front. She even volunteered to play goalie for a high school girls game once.

Her review of the experience? Terrifying. 😂

Despite admitting there may have been a few tears when a puck went in, she says she’d put the pads back on again if her team needed her. That’s a teammate. 💪🥅

💚🧡 WHY MONTANA TECH?

“My parents both grew up in Butte and went to Tech, along with many members of my family. When we moved to Butte, I knew Tech was the school for me too. Tech’s nursing program is the best!”

From Alaska roots to Butte tough, Jaydyn is ready to help build the foundation of Montana Tech Women’s Hockey.

🏔️ WELCOME HOME, ALASKA. #8 ⛏️🏒

See you tonight!

The kids have spoken... and the 2026 Movies in the Park lineup is officially here! 🎬🍿✨

After more than 2,000 votes cast by local elementary school students, these are the movies that earned a spot on the big screen this summer at Clark Park.

What started as a simple idea has grown into something so much bigger than movies. These nights bring families together, give kids a safe place to play, support local vendors, highlight local organizations, and create the kind of community connections that make Butte special.

And the best part? It's completely FREE.

A huge thank you to our sponsors, community partners, vendors, volunteers, and Butte-Silver Bow Parks & Recreation for helping make these events possible. It truly takes a village, and our community continues to show up in the best way.

☀️ Community Market: Wednesdays from 4–7 PM at the skating oval
🍔 Vendors begin serving around 6 PM
🎥 Movies begin around 7 PM
📍 Clark Park

Mark your calendars, grab your lawn chairs, and get ready for another unforgettable summer under the Montana sky.

Which movie are you most excited to see? 👇

Still want your business represented this summer? Want to personally support this event? Sponsorship opportunities are still available. Contact me directly or send a contribution via Venmo **Quincy-lee-6**. Every dollar helps keep these events free for local families while showcasing the businesses that help make them possible.

Tell your friends, tag your movie crew, and SHARE THIS POST so every family in Butte knows these free community nights are back! 💛

🍿 Did you guess it?

Last night, the Montana Tech Women’s Hockey Team traded skates for popcorn and spent the evening out in the community at Movies in the Park!

One of our goals as a new program is to become part of the fabric of Butte—not just on the ice, but throughout the community. We love supporting local events, meeting families, and connecting with future Orediggers.

🎬 Missed us this week? Don’t worry! We’ll be back at Movies in the Park next week. Stop by, say hello, and meet the team!

We’re excited to continue building relationships throughout Butte as we prepare for our inaugural season.
