Museum gets in the swim of it

Please join us and 84 other hardworking Flathead Valley nonprofits as we help launch the Great Fish Community Challenge!

Come on out Tuesday, Aug. 12, to Glacier Bank Park, between Kalispell and Whitefish off Highway 93. Learn about the work of 85 standout nonprofits, take in the views from the best ballpark in the world (no game that night, however), and tuck into free vittles from 5 to 7:30 p.m.

At the Northwest Montana History Museum booth we will introduce you to woodsmen along the Whitefish River in 1904, and museum Executive Director (and longtime bookbinder) Margaret E. Davis will teach the first 50 people to bind a short history of the museum they can take with them.

The party also will pop up throughout the valley before the campaign end on Sept. 12 to cheer community boosters and spread the word. Come on out, say hello and support the people who make the good life in the Flathead even better.
