Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Monday, July 14. Whether you’re a longtime resident or just in town for the summer, Bozeman is buzzing with activities, community efforts, and a few important updates to keep on your radar.Today’s weather is shaping up to be classic summer Bozeman—expect lots of sun and ideal temps for getting outside. Kick off your week with family-friendly fun at the Bozeman Public Library; this morning brings Big Kid STEAM Cardboard Construction for ages five to eleven, and there’s a Teen Corner hangout later in the day. Both events are free and run throughout the afternoon, so bring the kids and let their creativity flow. If you’re looking for a laid-back adventure, the Find Waldo Local scavenger hunt is still happening at Country Bookshelf—perfect for all ages and the kind of activity that gets everyone exploring Main Street with fresh eyes.Art lovers have a treat: Jim Westphalen’s solo exhibition, They Came in Earnest, continues at 129 East Main. The show captures Montana’s past and present in striking imagery and is well worth a visit if you want to connect with the local art scene and maybe find a new favorite piece. If you want to plan your week, don’t forget that the Montana Chamber Music Festival is coming up soon, promising performances from acclaimed musicians right here in Bozeman and across the region.Later tonight, gather some friends and head to Bacchus Pub for their weekly Trivia Night from seven to nine. Whether you’re a trivia buff or just in it for the laughs, it’s a classic Bozeman tradition and a great way to unwind after a Monday back at work. And for music fans, keep an eye out as the ELM and other local venues are hosting great shows throughout July—check ticket listings for what’s coming up, because our live music scene is as lively as ever.On the civic side, Bozeman’s big capital improvement project—the Fowler Avenue extension—is making headlines, having reached sixty percent completion in its design phase. This new north-south corridor will eventually help ease traffic from Oak Street down to Huffine Lane, something local drivers have long waited for. The project is being built in phases, with the first construction scheduled for next summer. City officials recently hosted a walking tour so neighbors could see plans firsthand, underscoring just how much public feedback has shaped the road’s design. As always, what happens with our roads impacts everyone’s daily routine, so stay tuned for more opportunities to weigh in.Finally, Bozeman City Commission continues to face spirited public debate over the display of the Pride flag in light of recent state legislation. Community turnout at meetings remains high as residents voice support on both sides of the issue, showing again how passionate Bozeman is about inclusivity and civic engagement.That’s your Monday morning in Bozeman—family fun, art, music, important city projects, and a community that cares. This has been Bozeman Local Frequency. We’ll see you tomorrow with more local updates.For more http://www.quietplease.aiGet the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI
