Tim Sather
My name is Tim Sather. My wife Holly and I have been residents of Lockwood for 10 years. Our oldest children graduated from Lockwood School and our youngest is currently attending the elementary school. I myself grew up in Lockwood and attended school here. My wife and I both graduated from Billings Senor High and work in Lockwood. I have been active in the Lockwood Boy Scout Troop 93 for five years. I have coached softball, baseball and soccer in Lockwood for several years. My wife and I both served on the committee for the new Middle School
I served in the Navy for 12 years and continue to serve in the Navy Reserve for a total of 22 years. I was activated and deployed to Kuwait in 2004 to support Operation Iraqi Freedom. I currently serve as part of the senior staff of Inshore Boat Unit 13 in Portland, OR.
The current school board has done a great job and I wish to continue the traditions of Lockwood School. |
Jason Hamrick
Hello, my name is Jason Hamrick. I have only lived in Lockwood for two years, yet I feel that I have been out here forever. I grew up in the Billings area most of my life. I also lived in Columbus for my middle school life and in Bozeman for my collegiate years.
I have served my communities for years as a police reserve officer and as a board member and president of a local credit union. I have also been involved with SOMT, local charities, and many other activities and events. I look forward to serving our community and our children by being a member of the Lockwood School Board of Trustees.
My wife, Julie, and I have two young children, Peyton and Leighla, of which we are looking forward to being educated in this wonderful environment of School District 26.
My goal as a trustee is to represent the parents and students of Lockwood to the best of my abilities and to sustain growth in the district while never compromising the integrity of our educational system as we have come to know it today. |
