Entertainment and Happenings Around Town
A variety of social and networking activities are being planned for this year's meeting,
from the stimulating salon opening reception and awards dinner, to the Vesalius Trust auction,
to a fun, low-key barn party.
Barn Party, Saturday, July 21
Join us at a make-your-own fun kind of party at MSU's S.O.B. (Save Our Barn) Barn!
Come as your favorite western character or famous Montanan: Bullwinkle the Moose;
Paul Bunyan; Annie Oakley; Gary Cooper, actor; Helena; Evel Knievel, daredevil motorcyclist;
Butte; David Lynch, filmmaker; Missoula;
or a character of your choosing.
Musicians, singers and those of us who just like to hum along are invited to
show off their talents and bring their instruments, whether it's a guitar, banjo,
mouth harp or kazoo. Show your competitive edge in pie-eating, racing and dance contests, and don't
forget about the BBQ and cold drinks.
