Episode Synopsis

Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Saturday, May 24, 2025.Bozeman is headed into a Memorial Day weekend filled with sunshine, community spirit, and plenty of things to do. Starting off on a note of progress, the city has just broken ground on the long-awaited Story Mill Park splash pad. Locals have watched the area transform, and this new addition is sure to make Story Mill Park a gathering spot for families as the warm weather rolls in. The city clerk’s office has been busy, too, with official postings reminding everyone to stay tuned for upcoming council decisions and community forums happening next week.Law enforcement is boosting patrols across Gallatin County this holiday weekend, focusing on keeping everyone safe as travel picks up. If you're heading out on the roads or to one of our pristine rivers, make sure to buckle up and take it slow—water levels are high with the ongoing snowmelt, and officials are encouraging everyone to stay safe and respect the power of local waterways.Downtown Bozeman remains the heart of community action. The 19th Annual Downtown Bozeman Partnership Breakfast just wrapped up, with a strong turnout from local businesses and city leaders. Folks shared ideas on how to keep Main Street vibrant, and the energy is already building for summer events. While Music on Main is still a few weeks away, anticipation is in the air for the July kickoff. If you're eager for more immediate fun, check out the local shops and cafes, many of which are featuring spring specials and extended hours today.For those with a taste for adventure, Yellowstone Alliance Adventures is gearing up for some exciting changes, promising new opportunities for outdoor fun just outside town. Meanwhile, history buffs can enjoy guided tours exploring Bozeman’s roots, or even plan a quick road trip to Greycliff Mill for some old-fashioned Montana charm.On the community front, Bozeman continues to foster connections, with events like the upcoming wild horse and burro adoption set for June—a great way to get involved if you love animals. And if you’re curious about local education efforts, Belgrade High’s Panther Trades program is helping students get hands-on experience for future careers, which is drawing praise across the region.Finally, as we honor those who served this Memorial Day, keep an eye out for ceremonies and opportunities to connect with veterans and their families throughout the valley. Whether you’re headed to the parks, strolling through downtown, or spending time with friends and family, Bozeman has something for everyone this weekend.This has been Bozeman Local Frequency.
