Episode Synopsis
Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Sunday, August 17th, 2025.Bozeman is waking up to sunshine and a busy calendar as we wrap up another vibrant summer weekend. First, a word to those with outdoor plans: we’re keeping an eye on smoky skies as crews continue to battle wildfires in the nearby Tobacco Root Mountains. The Bivens and Cloudrest fires continue to grow northwest of Big Sky and west of the Gallatin Valley. Recent red flag weather, with warm temps and gusty winds, has been challenging firefighters. Fortunately, as of this morning, Bozeman air quality is hovering between good and moderate, but anyone with respiratory issues should check updates before heading out. Smoke is especially noticeable in the northwestern areas of Gallatin Valley and as temperatures climb, those AQI levels could change[1].It’s a big day for car lovers in downtown Bozeman, where the 25th Annual Cruisin’ on Main Car Show rolls out from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. This family-friendly tradition features classic cars lining Main Street, food trucks, kids’ activities, and vendors, all for a good cause, supporting Cancer Support Community Montana. Whether you’re a gearhead or just like to stroll Bozeman’s lively core, downtown will be the place to be[2][6].Looking for more to do? The Adventure Van Expo continues at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds today through 5 p.m., showcasing the latest in custom vans, adventure rigs, and off-grid gear. It’s a great stop for outdoor enthusiasts dreaming of their next big trip or road warriors looking to swap advice with fellow travelers[4][10].For families and theater fans, Verge Theater wraps up its popular Little Mermaid Summer Theater Camp with performances today, while history buffs can join Bozeman’s Historic Main Street walk with Tents to Town, led by the Extreme History Project. Those intrigued by a little mystery can explore Bozeman’s haunted past on the Ghosts of Bozeman’s Past tour at Sunset Hills Cemetery—these run all the way into October but spots fill fast[2].Music lovers are in for a treat with live Celtic tunes this afternoon at Valhalla Meadery, perfect to unwind with friends and sample some local flavors[2]. And if you’re up for a quick trip to Livingston, Calamity’s Classic Rodeo promises high-energy rodeo action and plenty of good food over at the Park County Fairgrounds[2].On a more serious note, Bozeman police are investigating a fatal crash that occurred late Friday at South 19th Avenue and Stucky Road, involving a motorcycle and a red Subaru. An off-duty officer was first on the scene and tried to assist, but unfortunately, the motorcyclist could not be saved. Police thank all responders and ask anyone with information to contact Detective L. Sherpherd at the department as the investigation continues[3][5].That’s a snapshot of today in Bozeman—plenty of ways to connect, explore, and enjoy our lively community.
