The Bozeman Creek Committee was recently established to address the future of Bozeman Creek (aka Sourdough Creek).Bozeman, Montana and Boulder, Colorado are often compared: both have a major university, a plethora of outdoor enthusiasts, a high standard of living, and a creek, but up until recently, unlike Boulder which began Boulder Creek improvements more than 30 years ago and now showcases it as a model for inner-city/downtown waterways, Bozeman, MT simply sent its creek underground as it approached downtown, concealing and/or diverting its waters from view.In response, the Bozeman Creek Committee was recently created to address the future of Bozeman's urban waterway, primarily the section that flows from about Goldenstein through downtown Bozeman.The Committee consists of representa... 03/23/2012

LOCAL EVENT HIGHLIGHTED: This weekend marks the début of MSU’s Badgers, the Division II rugby team here in Bozeman, MT. Rugby, a game that is oftentimes viewed as a hybrid of soccer and football, is really neither of the above. It is a game which uses a large oblong ball that can be run forward or passed backward. There are no play breaks in the solid 40 minute halves for the only pauses are when scrums, intense collisions of men in a organized and powerful shockwave, form around a tackled ball. The differences between rugby and all other sports only continue from there. If you are interested in checking out this supremely physical sporting event, come out and support your Bozeman Badgers for their first home game of the season this Saturday, March 3rd @ 1:00p.m., on Bozeman High’s Nort... 03/01/2012

SNOW IS FINALLY HERE! Bridger Bowl has received 30 inches of snow to make it look like it may just be winter here in Montana. “It’s very nice to get some snow for the locals who purchased passes and the tourists here on vacations,” Michael Gill, assistant marketing director for the ski hill, said Wednesday. The long President’s weekend drew in skiers from Canada, North Dakota, Minnesota, and of course, from Montana out to the slopes.  Snow is expected to continue throughout the end of the week!
