harder because here in the US, we failed to do much to prevent it. We failed to scramble the laser jets. Now imagine that asteroid is climate change. This massive threat has also been branded as a hoax by Trump. Yet experts tell us that large parts of the globe will become uninhabitable due to extreme heat and drought. Many coastal cities, from Miami to Mumbai to New York to Bangkok to Jakarta, will be inundated by the sea. Weather will become more and more unstable and destructive, and tens of millions will die from mega storms, heat, floods, famine, disease, fires and drought. Hundreds of millions will become refugees. This asteroid is no hoax. Unlike an impending asteroid impact, we have some time to figure out how to prevent climate change. Not a lot, but some, since it does not happen all at once. We know it is happening, and we know why – human-produced carbon dioxide and methane are turning the atmosphere to a giant greenhouse. We even know how to prevent at least some of the worst impacts of climate change. Shouldn’t we throw everything we have at it? Enlist and employ and trust experts in alternative fuels, drought mitigation, water conservation, weather prediction, population growth, urban planning, reforestation, alternative transportation, etc. Use our massive military might to help. Seek and fund new ideas and solutions.

n the 1997 movie thriller Asteroid, an extinction-level impact is predicted as an asteroid is aimed at Earth by a passing comet. Three aircraft with lasers are scrambled and succeed in breaking up the asteroid though smaller fragments still cause significant damage. Kansas City is evacuated as impact nears. A piece of the asteroid hits Montana, and a big piece levels Dallas. The full impact could have wiped out life on Earth, if no defensive action was taken. Suppose a real asteroid is aimed at us. Would we not do everything possible to avert disaster, like trying to destroy or divert the killer asteroid and evacuating areas where impact was predicted? Wouldn’t we spend whatever was necessary, rally whatever resources we could, to blow it to smithereens? Now imagine that asteroid killing hundreds of thousands of people when it hit the US, because the President termed it a “hoax.” The media picked up on the President’s message, causing people to doubt the asteroid was real and refuse to leave the impact area. After all, no one could see the asteroid. Sure, some geeky scientists supposedly photographed it, but photos are easily faked. This was just an attempt to control us. Who would you believe? Would you be willing to take a chance that the asteroid would miss, or that it was fake? We are currently dealing with a slow motion asteroid called Covid-19. It is killing tens of thousands of people. It may ultimately kill millions. There are plenty of people out there who think this particular asteroid is a hoax. In fact, President Trump called it a hoax. And it is hitting us much
Find large scale ways to reduce our impacts. Double down on reducing our carbon footprint. Do our level best to avert or alleviate what is already an ongoing mega disaster. Or, we can sit and wait for the asteroid to hit. Believe our lazy and corrupt political leaders. Deny that the asteroid exists, protest because we have to move out of the way, consume as much as possible, and scoff at the scientists. Make fun of the hysterical teenagers. Shop ‘til we drop. What the hell, it’s the end of the world as we know it, but we feel fine. k

have seen many business statements regarding the racial inequality debate the nation was thrust into after the murder of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Many companies rushed to extend messages of solidarity, and I wanted to do the same, not at all as an empty gesture, but with authenticity and impact. I will begin by saying we unequivocally support Black and Brown Bozeman. What are we doing to take new action against racism in our town? On June 5, 2020, we volunteered to provide sound for the rally at Bogert Park organized by the Black Student Union at MSU, Montana Racial Equity Project, and Bozeman United for Racial Justice. My husband Brian has been a sound engineer for the past twenty years in Bozeman. He was asked to provide additional sound equipment for the second Bozeman rally after the first was difficult for the audience to hear and social distance at the same time. We were happy to volunteer our time and equipment to ensure the audience had a great experience. We have sought out personal accounts from community members who want to share their BIPOC stories with our readers. In this issue, we’ve included an article entitled The Black Lives Matter Movement as an Asian American contributed by our new writing intern Cassie Pfannenstiel. We intend on another article for August about Being Brown in Bozeman. We will continue to seek out contributions from the Bozeman BIPOC community and help get their voices heard. Interested in sharing your story? Email us at info@bozemanmagazine.com We will continue to read books and articles and watch movies about racial injustice, slavery, oppression, inequality, and myriad issues facing people of color historically and currently. We take the stand that not being racist is not enough. As individuals and as a family, we will be anti-racist. We also believe that ally is a verb, and we will be active allies in this renewed fight for equality. We know this is a long road to walk, and we are in it for the long haul. Bozeman Magazine is a VENUE for creative community members to share their work, thoughts, history, causes, and business offerings. We publish locally written content by volunteer contributors who care about their community and want to share information with our readers, as well as featuring local artists on our cover each month. We strive to bring you interesting and engaging content that will encourage you to be a part of the events and business ventures that make Bozeman unique. We are here to tell the story of Bozeman; we sure hope it is an encouraging and inclusive story. R Angie Ripple is a white girl from Montana. She was raised on the Flathead Indian Reservation in St. Ignatius, Montana, before moving to Bozeman TWENTY-FIVE years ago this August to study at Montana State University. She holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Graphic Design and is the mother of three children 13 and under. www.bozemanmagazine.com

NIC FISCHER
ic Fischer is a proud father of two daughters, a narrative landscape painter, and frequent sufferer of summit fever. For nearly a decade, he has focused on painting landscapes as viewed from the top of a mountain, offering a new perspective of painting the expansive Montana landscape. Nic developed a plein air kit that is rugged and light enough to handle mountain summits so that through field studies, maps, and satellite imagery he can create large studio paintings looking down across entire mountain ranges. While the finished product cannot equal the breathless, encompassing panorama of a hard-earned summit, the paintings are exhilarating. On the cover is Bozeman in July from the
perspective of the cliffs above Hyalite Lake (not reservoir). The Hyalite Creek Trail is Nic’s favorite summer bike ride, and the painting is his way of celebrating its ascent and other trails in the area. Recently, he has been painting from the summit of Mt Ellis and Elephant Mountain with plans to put together a second large Hyalite Canyon work. In the fall of 2019, he spent his Artist in Residence painting from the summit of Edwards Mountain in Glacier National Park. He is still working on the final large painting from his time in Glacier; an expansive view from Sperry Chalet to Sperry Glacier. Nic accepts commissions and always enjoys a new challenge.

have always enjoyed dining in an establishment where the owner is hands-on, whether it’s greeting guests, or making food, or bussing tables. I’ve seen local owners do it all, and I love being a witness to their passion and drive. Zeynep Martello is one of these local hands-on restaurant owners; she calls her passion project Z’s Meze Market (102 S 19th Ave, Bozeman). Meze “meh’-zeh” means small flavorful dishes; Z’s serves small dishes of many Mediterranean delights including dolma, bulgar pilaf, falafel, hummus and baklava. Although you can’t yet dine-in at Z’s during the current pandemic, you can still enjoy delicious authentic Turkish/Mediterranean food for take-out or delivery. Zeynep took some time recently to talk about her restaurant and how she, her family, and staff are adapting and pivoting to stay busy. Angie Ripple: How has your restaurant pivoted during the Covid-19 crisis? Zeynep Martello: We aren’t letting anyone in the restaurant right now; we’re using the patio and doing takeout orders. We changed our hours. We are open 11 am - 3 pm instead of 11 am - 6:30 pm because we literally have only three employees now.
My husband, daughter and I work Monday - Wednesday, and Thursday and Friday, the two girls who have been working for me for years, they take over and work. We do stay open until 5 pm on Friday’s for $5 Gyros. Inside we’ve been working on making our kitchen bigger because we are also a manufacturer. It is making more sense to manufacture food now more than the restaurant because we don’t have to deal with as many customers and we provide the stores with more products. We basically shrunk the dining room and cut it in half. On one side, we made a bigger kitchen and prep area and on the other, we separated the tables. We are still doing a few different things like painting. We are using the opportunity as much as possible. With the shorter hours, I have had more time for relaxing and for myself; usually I am so busy all the time with work, so it’s been nice. And I think it’s been bringing our family closer because we are all working together, and even though my daughter was not in school, I have been teaching her a work ethic by helping us. Our meal kit deliveries have been nice, people were really, really nice and they ordered a lot of kits. My husband Mark and
I were delivering them, which has slowed down now that we are doing takeout, but I just really enjoyed delivering food to people because they couldn’t come to me. We also offered First Responder Kits, so people would buy a kit for their family, and then a kit for First Responders; that worked out well, as people ordered they told their friends and more people ordered. I still had my hummus business as a backup, and without it I don’t think we would have made it. I still, the whole time, went to work and produced hummus and delivered it to the distributor. AR: How was Z’s Meze Market conceptualized? ZM: How the restaurant started is it started with hummus, then Farmers’ Markets, and then the restaurant. I think it was after Mark and I’s second trip to Turkey for a visit, we were always at Farmers’ Markets carrying coolers around, we bought a hot dog cart from Frank’s Catering for like $900, and we put a Gyro cone vertical broiler on it and started selling gyros after we’d gone to Turkey and I was inspired by all of the continued on next page

Z’s Meze Market p. 12 Turkish food. We were still working out of coolers and trailers, and we needed more space and a kitchen, so we started looking downtown and it was way too expensive, so this location on 19th was the place. I could feel it so I just went with it. We opened the restaurant near the end of 2011.

ZM: I think it’s that we make a lot of things literally from scratch. Like we don’t just take something out of a freezer and cook it and serve it, we make our sauces from scratch, we make our yogurt from scratch, we make our Falafels handmade. We make small batches of stuff and run through it and make another batch; it’s just fresh and handmade. We kind of have an advantage because we’re serving something different than burgers and stuff like that. AR: What do you want people to experience when they walk through your doors? ZM: That they feel welcome and that we’re like a small family; a lot of regulars come. Just the fact that when they eat, they know that it was good and they were satisfied and they didn’t pay a ton of money. I don’t want anyone to leave unhappy.

AR: What makes Z’s Meze Market unique in the Bozeman food scene?
AR: What item do your regulars keep coming back for?
ZM: Gyros, hummus, grape leaves, falafels. Falafels and gyros are starting to be on the same level. I can’t keep up with the falafels. And $5 Friday is what they really love. AR: What do you enjoy most about being part of the Bozeman community? ZM: The fact that people really appreciate local and small businesses, and they really want to support small businesses, and they show up and are very supportive. AR: Do you have anything upcoming that you want readers to know about? ZM: I will be debating about reopening the dining room, and I have been thinking about manufacturing more falafels and distributing them to the stores in the frozen section. I am just looking forward to opening the doors so people can come eat! It doesn’t feel like me to say, “Here’s your food, go now.” It just doesn’t feel good to do that, so I am looking forward to being fully reopened. I keep Google updated with any changes to our hours and check our Facebook page for updates. There really is something to be said for a restaurant owner who will take your order, prepare your food, and bring it to the table. Z is that passionate owner ready to serve you. Whether you’ve yet to experience a delicious meal at Z’s, or it’s been a while, give them a taste sometime soon! Z

T
he Bozeman Symphony Board of Directors are pleased to announce internationally recognized conductor Norman Huynh has been appointed its new Music Director. Huynh was publicly announced the Bozeman Symphony’s new Music Director at a virtual event on June 8th via a live Zoom meeting hosted by Board of Director’s Chair Stephen Schachman and Executive Director
16
July 2020
Emily Paris-Martin held at Old Main Gallery. Norman was selected out of six finalists following a year-long Music Director search throughout the 2019 – 2020 concert season. He was selected with the help of the Bozeman Symphony Board of Directors, an eight-person search committee, staff, musicians, and community participation. Stephen Schachman said, “Norman’s talents coupled with our terrific Executive Director Emily Paris-Martin and our dynamic staff will ensure an exciting future for our community and our musicians. It would be remiss not to thank the search committee and our patrons who supported us during the search.” As the Bozeman Symphony finalizes its 2020 – 2021 concert season schedule, Schachman adds, “We are all incredibly excited to start the next chapter of the Bozeman Symphony and to continue to bring exceptional live symphonic music to the community. Norman is an exceptional talent and we are fortunate to have someone of his level of expertise help forge the future of the Bozeman Symphony Society.” Norman Huynh has established himself as a conductor with an ability to captivate an audience through a multitude of musical genres. Born in 1988, Norman is a first-generation Asian American and the first in his family to pursue classical music as a career. Along with his role as the Bozeman Symphony’s Music Director, he will continue as the Harold and Arlene Schnitzer Associate Conductor of the Oregon Symphony. Norman is honored to be named the Bozeman Symphony’s new Music Director, and see’s the appointment as the beginning of an exciting adventure. “I am inspired by Bozeman’s support of the arts, and the closeness of the community as a whole. Everyone that I met during my time in Bozeman, from baristas at coffee shops to The Last Wind Up, expressed a genuine interest in the Bozeman Symphony. I look forward to joining this community and creating musical experiences that continue to bring us closer together,” said Huynh. He adds, “As I step into the role of Music Director, I am most excited about the potential of what we can accomplish together. I look forward to expanding our collaborative efforts and building lasting partnerships with other arts institutions in town. In the wake of current world events, I believe that the role of the Symphony is to reconnect us with each other, to facilitate healing and forward momentum through the language of music.”

Bozeman Symphony Concertmaster Carrie Krause is thrilled for the future of her fellow musicians and the entire Bozeman Symphony. She said, “Musically, Norman’s well-equipped to inspire and lead our orchestra to a new level of excellence through his musical passion, awareness of style, training at top-level institutions, adaptability, and deep dedication to the art of our craft.” Carrie adds, “The Bozeman Symphony at large will benefit from Norman’s strength of creative programming, community-centered marketing, charisma, approachability, and thoughtfulness in collaborating with musicians, staff, audiences, patrons, and Bozeman’s incredibly rich community of arts organizations.” Norman’s recent conducting engagements include the St. Louis Symphony Orchestra, Detroit Symphony, Rochester Philharmonic, Orchestra Sinfònica del Vallès, Eugene Symphony, Grant Park Music Festival, and the Princess Galyani Vadhana Youth Orchestra of Bangkok. He has served as a cover conductor for the New York Philharmonic and Los Angeles Philharmonic with John Williams. Norman has been at the forefront of moving orchestral music out of the traditional concert hall into venues where an orchestra is not conventionally found. In 2011, he co-founded the Occasional Symphony in Baltimore to celebrate holidays by performing innovative concerts in distinct venues throughout the inner-city. The orchestra performed on Dr. Seuss’ birthday at Port Discovery Children’s Museum, Halloween in a burnt church turned concert venue, and Cinco de Mayo in the basement bar of a Mexican restaurant. As Music Director, Norman commissioned new works by multiple composers to give concert goers the rare experience of being present for a piece of music’s world premiere. Norman is a recipient of the 2015 Yale Distinguished Music Educator Award for his work with the Portland (Maine) Symphony Orchestra’s Musical Explorer’s Program. As the Assistant Conductor of the PSO from 2013-2016, Norman visited over sixty schools across the state of Maine and co-founded Symphony & Spirits, a series of events for young professionals, between the ages of 21-39, to make the orchestra more accessible and engaging for a younger audience. In the next few weeks, The Symphony will announce the schedule and programming for its 2020 - 2021 concert season.

BOZEMAN’S BRAND NEW RECORD STORE Brian Ripple: What is the Wax Museum and where is it located? Kels Koch: The basic idea of The Wax Museum is to provide folks with a place to find affordable quality used vinyl, as a lot of people are either starting a record collection for the first time or (in some cases) rebuilding one after selling their record collection in The Great Vinyl Purge of the late ‘’80s/early ’90s. Considering how expensive new vinyl is, I want to offer used vinyl at the same prices it always used to get priced at before Industry Greed took over (i.e. $2.99, $3.99, $4.99 for a lot of used records that are now commonly priced at $9-$12 at a lot of shops). I also want to provide new copies of important building block titles and artists (Elvis, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, Buddy Holly, the Everly Brothers, Beach Boys, Beatles, Stones, Kinks, Velvet Underground, Ramones, The Clash, Dead Kennedys, etc in addition to some basic jazz, soul, blues titles - mainly because - again - a lot of people are building their collections and need access to elemental music that many stores are bypassing due to their focusing on hot new releases, many of which will come and go as far as interest and “importance” are concerned.
BR: What other record stores or areas in the record industry have you previously worked at? KK: My first record store job was at Cellophane Square in Seattle from 1990-92. Then I moved onto Austin, where I worked at ABCD’s from ‘92-’97. After coming back to Bozeman for a few months at the end of ‘97 and top of ‘98 (during which I flirted with the idea of opening up a store, but couldn’t find an affordable space), I moved onto Nashville where I worked at The Great Escape (1998-2010) and The Ernest Tubb Record Shop (2010-2013). And, of course, I DJ’ed at KGLT from 1985-1989 and I’ve been back there since my return to Montana 2 years ago. I also DJ’ed at WRVU (Vanderbilt University’s radio station) for about 10 years (including having Jello Biafra and Charlie Louvin together on our Hipbilly Jamboree radio show!) and Nashville’s new community radio station WXNA for the couple of years before my move. And I’ve played in bands in all these towns - most notably The Beat Nothings here in Bozeman in the ’80s and The Million Sellers in Austin and Nashville, releasing 6 records over the years. I’ve also helped Ron Sanchez a few times over the decades with his Donovan’s
Brain project and I’ve written for the alt. country magazine No Depression. BR: What made you decide to open the Wax Museum? ... and why did you choose to open the Wax Museum in Bozeman? KK: Hmmm . . . well, as I stated above, I DID want to open something here back in ‘97’98 because Bozeman HAS been my favorite of all the cities I’ve lived in and I thought then, as I do now, that it deserves a firstclass, affordable and KNOWLEDGEABLE record store. Plus, it’s just nice to be back and do what I love - it’s a win-win for me! BR: Do you do special orders? KK: Sure! Of course, the items have to be in print and available through my distributors, but yeah - I can do special orders. BR: What else do you carry besides wax at the wax museum? KK: I’m really focused on just music here, although I do carry the three currently popular physical formats (vinyl, CD’s, and cassettes - new and used in all cases) in addition to shellac (78’s) and styrene (most 45’s are actually made of styrene rather than vinyl). I understand why a lot of record stores carry other product lines (t-shirts, posters, buttons - all of which have some appeal to most music fans . . . and candles, incense, jewelry, toys - which generally don’t) - it’s because they are higher mark-up items. But with my limited space, I’m just shooting for what matters - the music! I’m getting a great deal on rent here, so I don’t have to make 200% mark-up on crap to pay rent. Lucky me! The Wax Museum is located at 404 East Bryant Street (off N Rouse Ave.) in Bozeman, Montana. They are open Tuesdays from 1 pm-7 pm, Wednesday - Saturday from 11 pm-7 pm, and Sundays 12-4.

Bozeman Theatre Culture in

ary Cooper, Hollywood star of the 1940s and 50s born in Helena and former student at Montana State College (today’s MSU), is enshrined in Bozeman’s history with a star embedded in the sidewalk near the Rialto Theatre in downtown Bozeman. Across the street in front of The Ellen Theatre, is another name, equally famous in
Bozeman acting circles—Ben Tone. Cooper’s and Tone’s copper-plated names embedded in Bozeman’s downtown sidewalks accompany other names of well-known local performers. I often find myself thinking about why and how Bozeman has become such a theatre town. Involved in the theatre world myself, I work with actors, stage man-

agers, design crews, and others involved in putting these shows on stage. Having very recently helped Gretchen Minton publish a book about the history of Shakespeare in Montana, I’ve also come to realize the importance of theatre and drama in Montana. Musing upon these things, a question arises: Who are the people who have been so influential in creating this culture of theatre in southwestern Montana?
It seems there are several threads that came together starting in the post-World War II timeframe: the recreating of Montana’s territorial capitol (Virginia City) by Charles Bovey, the founding of Montana Shakespeare in the Parks, and the emergence of the Montana State University drama department as a respected theatre education department. Charles Bovey, son of a wealthy Minnesota flour mill owner, moved to Montana in 1926. He began collecting old pioneer-era buildings and

Bozeman Magazine JULY 2020.indd 20
6/23/20 4:56 PM
other antiques across the state and moving them to Virginia City in 1944. In 1947, he hired Larry and Dori Barsness, originally from Lewistown but active in west-coast theatre, to provide musical entertainment for tourists who were coming to visit Bovey’s historical Virginia City. The Barsnesses proved very popular, and Bovey asked them to return and recreate 1860s-era mining town entertainment in the Virginia City opera house and saloon. Barsness quickly hired his friend Ben Tone from Oregon, and Larry, Dori, and Ben created the Virginia City Players and began performing shows in the summer tourist season at the Bale of Hay Saloon. Inspired by the Barsnesses, the Virginia City Players soon began touring small towns around Montana and Idaho during the winter, the off-season for tourism in Virginia City. Barsness’ lead in creating and touring acting companies caused many people in the ’50s and ’60s to call him “the founding father of Montana summer theater” due to his influence in the founding of the Polson City Players, Fort Peck Playhouse, and the Bigfork Summer Playhouse. In 1960, the Department of Theatre Arts at Montana State College hired Ben Tone to join other drama faculty, which eventually included Bruce Jacobsen and Joseph Fitch. Tone was a powerful influence not only in the Virginia City Players and the drama department at Montana State University, but also in bringing university performances to the Bozeman public. Many Bozemanites still remember attending performances at the Procrastinator Theatre on campus, as well as at “The Loft Theatre,” upstairs in the Red Barn (today’s Feed Café). The success of the Dramatic Arts program began to attract out-of-state students to Bozeman to take classes from Tone, Jacobsen, and Fitch, as well as bringing young actors into the nascent theater culture of southwest Montana. John Hosking, for example, came to Montana to perform with Shakespeare in the Parks in 1973, and with the Virginia City Players from 1972 until 1981, when he co-founded the Vigilante Theatre Company in Bozeman with Rhonda Smith. Hosking performed with the Vigilante Theatre Company until 2013. He continues to perform on Bozeman stages and create and perform his original music. Tone’s experience in touring and performing with Larry Barsness seems to be influential in his colleague Bruce Jacobsen’s design for Montana Shakespeare in the Parks (MSIP). Jacobson founded MSIP in 1973 with 14 actors composed of students and faculty members such as English professor Jerry Coffey, performing scenes from four or five Shakespeare plays in Bozeman and several nearby communities. The pilot season was successful, and in 1974 Jacobsen turned this into a real tour and extended performances to four weeks. Joel Jahnke was hired in 1973 as a designer and technical director for MSU’s Theatre Arts Department. In 1980, Jahnke became Artistic Director for MSIP and expanded the program, hiring out-ofstate actors, especially from Chicago. Jahnke expanded the program from a small university tour that performed in 22 communities in Montana into a tour that offered 75 summer performances across five states in 59 communities, a fall show reaching 44 high schools in four states, and a spring show aimed for elementary students in more than 40 communities in rural Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming. Jahnke did more than just stage plays in underserved communities—he also mentored countless actors who came to Bozeman from across the country, creating a belief in actors that they really could have a career in theatre. Today’s Bozeman theatre scene still reflects the heritage of these 20th-century drama faculty and actors. The current president of Bozeman Actors Theatre is Gordon Carpenter, who came to study drama at MSU from New York City in 1980 because of the reputation of the Dramatic Arts department. Will Dickerson, Rhonda
Smith, Tom Morris, John Hosking, Susan Miller, Tonya Andrews and Mark Kuntz are just a few of the BAT actors who have come through the MSU/Shakespeare in the Parks programs and continue to act on Bozeman stages. There are other “inheritors” of these pioneers of the Bozeman theatre scene. The Children’s Shakespeare Society, founded by Amy Devlin, is an example. Devlin grew up in the front row of the Virginia City Players’ Olio shows and went from that to Shakespeare in the Parks’ Duck Pond performances every year. Her experience growing up with these actors, faculty, and performances inspired her to found the Children’s Shakespeare Society, which stages several Shakespearean plays each year. Devlin also created the Christmas Radio show, performed at the Reynolds Recital Hall at MSU around Christmas time. Written and directed by MSIP and Virginia City alums Doug MacIntrye and Maggie Peterson, the Radio Show stars MSIP alums such as John Hosking, Rhonda Smith, and Tom Morris. At the end of the day, I wonder whether there is something else in the culture of this area that has brought these people together in the first place. There is the beauty and closeness of the mountains around here of course. But there is also something else I think of that is perhaps equally important. Bozeman has been a small community where the connection of the people is palpable. I think about the 1960s when the town was only a fraction of the size it is now, and yet there were people living and working here like Robert Persig, who wrote “Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance.” The community also included Robert and Gennie Deweese – famous artists who lived up Cottonwood Canyon and held impromptu get-togethers which included creative people from all walks of life. There were a few actors already, like Peter Fonda, who would show up in local bars and play guitar for the fun of it. In the late 1960s, Montana State University began an effort to become a Carnegie One research institution, bringing more researchers into the area. It seems all this mixing of experiences, thoughts, creativity in so many different fields may hold another key to the reason why Bozeman is filled with so many creative people: It is a small place where no one is more than one or two degrees of separation from anyone else, and thus the creative juices can flow. And perhaps that is what makes Bozeman such a wonderful place to live, play, and especially to create. b Kevin Brustuen lives in Bozeman and can be contacted at kbrustuen@ hotmail.com.

PROTECTING THE GALLATIN RANGE
George Wuerthner
R
ecently, the Greater Yellowstone Coalition (GYC) sent out an announcement saying that 77% of respondents to a survey supported protecting the Gallatin Range with a variety of new designations from recreation area to wildlife management area. I have no doubt that most people want to see more protection for the Gallatin Range, but most do not realize that GYC and other groups are promoting less protection than now exists. Currently, 155,000 acres of the Gallatin Range is within the Congressionally designated Hyalite, Porcupine, Buffalohorn Wilderness Study Area (HPBH WSA). Under the terms of the original legislation, these lands
22
July 2020
MUST be managed as if they were designated wilderness until such time as Congress determines otherwise. GYC and the Montana Wilderness Association, The Wilderness Society, Winter Wildlands and others are supporting the Gallatin Forest Partnership (GFP). What these organizations don’t want you to know is that the GFP proposal would REDUCE the existing wilderness protection in the Gallatin Range from 155,000 acres to 102,000 acres, for a loss of more than 53,000 acres of wilderness status. Worse for the Gallatin Range, much of the reduction in wilderness will occur in the critically important wildlife area in the Buffalohorn Porcupine drainages adjacent to
Yellowstone Park. Under the terms of the GFP, recreation mechanical access--which may already be too great—can potentially increase in the Buffalohorn-Porcupine drainages. If you think the Gallatin Range’s wildlife and wildlands are too important to be turned into an outdoor gymnasium, and you support MORE wilderness for the range, please consider joining the Gallatin Yellowstone Wilderness Alliance. w George Wuerthner formerly worked for the Greater Yellowstone Coalition and was a board member of the Montana Wilderness Association when both were real wilderness advocates.

SUN SIGN HOROSCOPE JULY 2020 ARIES: With a pandemic, protests and the world seemingly going crazy, it is no wonder that you want to spend some time alone. It is okay to pull back and focus on yourself when you need to. Better to avoid than start a fight due to shorten tempers.
LIBRA: A desire to make connections with friends old and new as well as family near and far help you keep balance. Old behaviors could create new problems if you continue to second-guess things all the time. Celebrate on the 16th.
TAURUS: It is all about you this month, dear Taurus and that is A-Okay for you. That deep thinking about relationships and what they mean to you has you looking for new horizons and connections. New horizons and interests come in to play.
SCORPIO: Old ways of being are back with not always positive results. Beware allowing your fears and insecurities to allow negative thinking. Sorting through your emotions is important now because there is a new you in the picture.
GEMINI: Time to really pay attention to that inner voice – and it may seem like it just will not give you a moment’s peace. You are opening new avenues of information and learning. Stay open for lessons and information or insight to improve things.
SAGITTARIUS: Feeling like you are slogging through the mud and trying to make headway is going to be easy. The finish line is in sight, but there is still a final push to get through to your own choices. Check finances midmonth.
CANCER: Relax, my friend. This month is going to be much easier. There are still a few straggler doubts that try to get in the way, but compared to the last couple of months it is going to be a breeze. You have learned the lessons of what it means.
CAPRICORN: You are ready to step off the merry-go-round and let go to circular thinking, and freezing yourself from taking action. There wasn’t anything wrong with you to begin with, but this month you put the finishing touches on the new you.
LEO: There is still a lot of upheaval and turmoil going on – more within you than outside of you. This is your chance to finish healing some deep down – really deep down - hurts or some form of self-loathing. You can let go of the negatives now.
AQUARIUS: A new level in trust with yourself is found early in the month. It isn’t time to throw people out of your life it is more control over yourself that you have achieved. Keep that trust in yourself strong it is not unfounded.
VIRGO: It is summer! Don’t let things get too serious now, you are supposed to be having fun. Keep balance and you will find it is easy to push old fears and imaginings to the side so you can think more clearly. Unfinished business arises.
PISCES: You have found your zen zone – that place where you respect your priorities and boundaries. Now it is time to incorporate the new way of thinking into a sense of confidence and inner peace. A new personal connection leads to fun.

PANDEMIC HEALTH CHECK-IN Bridgercare

e gentle with yourself right now. This is an extraordinary time to be a human. In pre-pandemic(s) life, you might have been waking up at 6 am to exercise, physically going to work, dropping your kids off at school with a healthy and balanced lunch, limiting screen time for the family, making time for date nights, planning weekend adventures with friends, using self-control to not eat the entire pint of ice cream all in one sitting... then COVID hit and you launched into super light speed! Everything changed in a matter of days and you turned into a real-life superhero putting out one fire after the next. It was both exhausting and exhilarating, but you had clear purpose. Now we are over 3 months into the pandemic(s), and things just seem hard. The challenges are never-ending. All the motivation from the first few months has evaporated and the little things are starting to really get to you. If this is how you are feeling, you are NOT alone! There is a reason you feel like crap. Merete Wedell-Wedellsborg a Ph.D. in Business Economics and an M.A. in Organizational Psychology and author of Battle Mind: Performing Under Pressure describes the three phases of a crisis as “Emergency. Regression. Recovery”. In both the pandemics we are currently experiencing, it is important that we check in with ourselves regularly to make note of what phase we are currently in. For many of us, and maybe even as a community, we are likely in the “Regression” phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and the “Emergency” phase in the Black Lives Matter pandemic. The regression phase is particularly uncomfortable, and yet, it cannot be skipped or avoided. This is why we request that you all be gentle with yourselves and with others right now. Take time to unplug, watch a funny movie, leave work early, prioritize your physical and mental health, and know that there is a light at the end of the tunnel. As Wedell-Wedellsborg writes; the regression phase is your opportunity to become “a contributor to the resolution of a complex health, social, and economic event.” These hard times now will make for a better and stronger tomorrow! b This piece was taken from a Bridgercare newsletter. Due to Covid-19 Bridgercare will have an unexpected shortfall of at least $100,000. People in our community are losing their jobs, income, insurance and security – but they should never lose access to reproductive and sexual healthcare. We need your help to make sure that Covid-19 never affects our community’s right to these essential services, visit bridgercare. org/donate to donate.

INFECTED WITH THE LOVE OF FISHING
Montana Grant
O
ne could say that there are good and bad infections. Some bad infections are highly contagious and are caused by things like the coronavirus. Mask wearing has been proven highly effective in stopping the spread of these infections. Other infections, like fishing, you simply need to be around them. Social distancing, facemasks, and medications will not help. There will be many peaks and reoccurrences as the infection progresses. Once you become infected with the fishing bug, you are hooked for life! These infections are habit forming, expensive, and entertaining. Fishing is highly infectious and fun! Children are easily affected. Showing others how to fish will spread this infection.
IT STARTS WITH A BITE Braiden Walsh is a perfect example. Early in his life, he was exposed to several other infected fishermen. They kept him around, shared stories, and allowed him to watch. Braiden first discovered that he loved to eat fish. His Dad would bring home a batch of filets and Mom would quickly cook them up for dinner. Braiden would Pig Up the whole meal before everyone else got to the table. Talk about a feeding frenzy! It started early. Grandpa Tom would take Braiden on his boat in the Chesapeake Bay. Boating was fun but fishing was hard. He enjoyed the adventure but was mainly a spectator. Rockfish, Croakers, White Perch, and trout would fill the coolers and Braiden’s belly. His symptoms were getting worse! As Braiden got older, he wanted to be around the water and fishing more. Smiles and happiness are just two of the first symptoms. Figuring out the rod and reel began to make life easier. Practicing and experimenting helped him learn more. All the while, the infection was spreading. Braiden’s infection will start small. Maybe a few hooks and cane pole. Then it leads to better and more expensive tackle, and gear. Ultimately the infection leads to bigger boats, trucks, trips, and adventures. His fever was rising! Braiden became uncurable after short episodes became long ones. At first, he would want to fish for just a few minutes. Minutes turned into hours and hours into days. Soon his mind was thinking about fishing more and more. Braiden will need more medication! Gear, tackle, clothing, and time to go fishing will be his prescription. Throughout his life, the infection will posses him. No new spinner, fly, or rig will be missed. No river, creek, bay, or ocean will be ignored. Braiden will spend his life looking for the cure. This year, Braiden became a fisherman. His dad took him trout fishing. He had been before but that was before the infection had spread. His new fishing hat, rod, boots, vest, and tackle helped him look like a real fisherman. His first trout trip ended with his first limit of fat and fine Rainbows. His next trip filled a limit, but Braiden also netted his
26
July 2020
first Golden Trout! Every trip means more fun, time with family and friends, and FISH! Braiden is becoming a proud fisherman. It will take years for the incurable disease to progress. The infection also causes respect for the environment, following rules and limits, learning new things, and enjoying being around waters. When we fish, we relax, relieve stress, and find joy in all things fishing. Braiden is growing up and learning about life, and “A River Runs Through It!” Tight Lines and Screaming Reels Young Man!

MT SUMMER BUCKET LIST Sarah May
W
ith summer travel shifted to more staycation and less epic destinations, building a summer bucket list is a perfect way to make the most of a summer spent living locally. Whether you’re building a list full of solo adventures or planning one to make a few family memories, creating a summer bucket list is a great way to be intentional about having fun this summer.
First step in creating a summer bucket list is setting the expectations and limits. While managing expectations and setting limits for ourselves is not anyone’s idea of a fun summer, it will help in developing a list that can be achieved. Clarifying expectations helps keep people on the same page for the day’s adventure. For young ones with big feelings and excitement for life, setting expectations can prevent meltdowns and let downs. This also works with us adults who enjoy making well-meaning plans. Limits on summer fun may look like time, distance or finances. While some people appear to have limitless budgets for summer fun, most of us are feeling the financial pinch of the current economy. While you and your friends might want to try out the new restaurants in town, it may not be in everyone’s budget. Scheduling dinner dates during happy hour is a budget friendly way to meet the expectations of eating out and not breaking the bank. There is a Top 10 Happy Hour Spots at bozemanmagazine.com/ to help you out. Next, you want a well-balanced bucket list. While some may set sights on climbing each peak of the Bridgers, there’s little room for small adventures or inclement weather in this type of list. A good list should have small things you can do spontaneously when the rain cancels a plan to float the Madison River. Playing a new board game is a great idea for spontaneous fun on a rainy day. A well-balanced bucket list inspiring adventure should be filled with
28
July 2020
big events and small ones. An overnight backpacking trip is an epic summer memory, but requires a great deal of time, effort and money if you need supplies. A simple backyard bonfire with friends is quick and inexpensive. While one is a high impact event and the other a low-key evening, they can both lead to a summer memory for years to come. One key to creating an epic bucket list is thinking outside the box and simply looking at what’s around us. A simple shift in routine can lead to a treasured memory. With more trails than we can count in a stone’s throw distance, getting out in nature is one of the reasons we call Bozeman home. While the “M” trail is a local hiking staple, changing up our hike time to an after-work sunset hike is a low-key way to shake up the middle of the work week drag. Palisade Falls in Hyalite Canyon also makes for a great after work hike with a picnic dinner. Another great way to shake up the work week with our extra hours of sunlight is to simply forgo the meal plan and indulge in ice cream for dinner. While the verdict is still out on which ice cream shop is Bozeman’s Choice, we have options and there’s no reason we shouldn’t try all of them in a quest to find our favorite. Changing up our weekly routines with sunset hikes on a Tuesday and ice cream for dinner are simple inexpensive ways to create a summer memory with just a simple shift in our daily routine. Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “Unless you try to do something beyond what you already mastered, you will never grow,” and trying something new should be a summer bucket list requirement. With no shortage of outdoor activities to partake in, now is a perfect summer to try kayaking down the Yellowstone River or learning to rock climb at Spire. If you’re needing a break from the great outdoors or just want to slow it down a bit, many local businesses offer more crafty style classes for those looking to challenge his or her artistic abilities. If you’re short on cash and not sure if taking a rafting trip or watercolor painting class is in the budget, plan a night with friends where one person gives a watercolor how to or ask your one fly fishing obsessed friend to take you on the water one day. Learning something new is a great way to meet new people around town and have a little fun while you’re at it. As you brainstorm your summer adventures in and around Bozeman, don’t be afraid to think outside the box and mix up the weekly routine. Picking up a favorite pizza and eating it with

friends by Bozeman Pond can be just as memorable as a weekend backpacking trip. Don’t be afraid to ask others to join you on your adventures and stay flexible with plans. Spend your summer finding a favorite ice cream joint and flavor and discover a perfect spot to watch the sun set. If you’re the crafty type, create a fun way to display your Bozeman bucket list in your home. Find a new hobby, or finally check out the museum you drive by every day. So remember to set your expectations and limits, find some friends or family members and get to brainstorming. No idea is too crazy for a brainstorm session. Keep your activities balanced and don’t break the budget in the name of summer fun. Tag us on social media @bozemag as you create and cross off your Bozeman Bucket List, so we can share ideas and cheer each other on as we enjoy the summer sun.

panish-born philosopher and poet George Santayana’s famous quote, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it,” has been paraphrased several ways, all with a focus on being aware of, appreciating, and respecting the importance of significant events in our lives, as individuals and as a whole. For me, the quote has always had a “doom and gloom” feel to it. I’ve taken the statement and re-phrased it in my own way for the Gallatin History Museum, something a little more gentle yet sincere to embrace the chapter of COVID-19 we muddled and struggled through, and to prepare for what is predicted that we will inevitably repeat: Those who have experienced the past are asked to share it for the sake of the future. The Gallatin History Museum is one of Bozeman’s ultimate treasure chests of real stories. Our exhibits are stories, our bookstore shelves are filled with real and imaginary stories. Our gem is the research library, where among court reports, maps and other documents more dry in nature, are very real, personal stories of experiences in Southwest Montana and the greater Bozeman community. Before we had to leave our historic home away from home, the staff of GHM created the Gallatin County Memoir Project. We cast it as an anchor for the community, for anyone to share in great length or in a simple sentence what the virus and the shutdown meant to that person. The beauty of a journal or diary is its pure vulnerability, the pure heart and thoughts of an individual in a time that he or she may or may not understand. There is remarkable beauty in these stories. Remarkable beauty in its vulnerability can be the greatest comfort and gift for us all. We were amazed at both the immediate and ongoing contributions. Amazed, delighted, amused and sometimes a little heartbroken. What a fantastic community we have! We read stories from children filled with their wonderful innocent outlook on their world of trials and tribulations with siblings and pets and chores, yet they were trying to express some very real fears as well. We read stories from the elders in our community who had struggled through many hardships in their lives and this was just another...but not just another; it was one that seemed to lay right by their doorstep, waiting to take them. We received letters from amateur philosophers and historians offering insight and samples of what we are condemned to repeat. What is most important here, our community was willing and able to share very personal stories without fear or judgement. The Gallatin History Museum’s mission is to “preserve, promote and foster the history of Gallatin and Southwest Montana.” It was
our responsibility, pleasure, and honor to reach out to all of you to share your stories with us. It was an equal honor that our colleagues in neighboring communities reached out to us to create their own memoir project. As museums we were in this together - no competition, only the desire to capture for our community a most unusual and most unique chapter in our histories. I always felt from the beginning of the shutdown, when the sun warmed us, when the grass became green and flowers and trees bloomed, we in Montana would put aside our fears to return to the mountains and the river, to our gardens, our churches and our neighbors (I know of at least one house cat who has looked forward to that moment much longer than any of us). We joke how our summers are so short, but I think while this virus has not affected our state as much as larger, harder hit states, we have come to deeply appreciate that life is too short. Living life isn’t just about getting out there every day and making the most of every moment. It’s also about recording those moments, to share with our neighbors and children and grandchildren and friends. I believe it is the simple nature of the universe that we will always in many ways, repeat history. If we can record our experiences through a most unusual and difficult time, perhaps we will be offering advice on how to make it through, perhaps our words will offer comfort that we can overcome what is scary, frustrating, ridiculous (e.g. underground toilet paper bunkers). Perhaps we can come closer to understanding the true meaning of gratitude, and know how to count our blessings. What I know will be ongoing is the curiosity of our community, people who will come to the museum’s research center now and years from now, to discover how Gallatin County and Southwest Montana looked at this time and how we cared for each other. continued on next page

moment to record a memory, jot down a note, draw a picture, or give us a call to share your experience of COVID-19. It isn’t just about preserving, promoting and fostering history. Your words may very well - unbeknownst to you - be of comfort and be of education not just for generations to come, but for that one person today who comes into our library and needs to hear your words. The Gallatin County Memoir Project is alive and well, and we most welcome your contributions. You can send your stories, drawings and thoughts to media@gallatinhistorymuseum.org. Over the next few months, we will start sharing with you what we’ve received so far. From all of us at the Gallatin History Museum, please take very good care. d Carmen Dunn is the Development Manager at the Gallatin History Museum in Bozeman.

T
he issue of race in America is complex. Many communities of varying cultures exist together often without accepting one another in a meaningful way. Growing up in a multicultural home as a mixed-race child, I often felt as a cultural outsider to either half of me. Around my white friends and family, I was the minority and with other Asians I was “too white” to really fit in. I had two different sides of me that were never really brought together. I wasn’t allowed to learn Tagalog from my mother growing up, which caused me to miss out on a lot of Filipino culture and deeper relationships. Even today, my mother and I have a strained relationship because of the language barrier between us. The lack of that half of my culture was filled by the other half of my upbringing: a mostly white-washed experience in which I still wasn’t fully accepted because of my mixed origins. As a child, I was unable to understand where I stood amongst the white kids with “normal” upbringings. When I looked at myself, I couldn’t tell if I even looked Asian or not. I became used to random strangers asking questions like: “What are you?” “What’s your heritage?” “Where are you from? No, originally.” These questions solidified my racial ambiguity. I became used to identifying as white and American first before my more prominent Asian culture. The questioning reminded me that although I had embraced and assimilated into white culture, I was not white. “The U.S. Asian population overall does well on measures of economic well-being compared with the U.S. population as a whole, but this varies widely among Asian subgroups. The median annual household income of households headed by Asian Americans is $73,060, compared with $53,600 among all U.S. households. But these overall figures hide differences among Asian origin groups.” The above quote from the Pew Research Center partially dispels the stereotype of Asian prosperity in America. Despite it seeming positive, the stereotype speaks to the ways in which we profile races and assign generalized characteristics to them. Asian Americans have received a stereotype that may help them out in a business environment, but at the expense of generalizing an entire race of people under one aspect that isn’t entirely true. It’s a stereotype that we accept because it seems to benefit us, despite using racism to do so. Asian Americans of different origins struggle the same way that White Americans of different origins do. Recently, I’ve realized how my racial identification has meant that I’ve felt justified in staying out of issues that affect other races. The overlying Asian culture of not speaking out or disagreeing with elders suppresses the opinions of younger generations. Traditional Asian culture teaches us to not speak out, that it is better to stay out of controversial things and not stir up unnecessary trouble. Obedience is an essential part of the culture and respect is demanded by older generations. When it comes to politics, I usually choose to stay out of things. I usually feel as though I don’t know enough or read enough in order to really speak on a topic. I make the excuse that politics upset me too much to warrant involving myself in them all the time. The issue of systemic racism has transcended political leanings
and is more important than my discomfort. The Death of George Floyd and many other Black Americans at the hands of the police is a wake-up call to anyone who could be profiled as “non-white.” There is a big difference in the way that people are viewed in this country on the basis of race, and racial profiling happens to almost every group seen as “non-white.” Just because it affects other POC (People of Color) differently doesn’t mean we should be silent about it. White is not “the norm” or “the default” and it shouldn’t be. The case to be made here is for equity and justice for all races. To be held accountable to the same degree in each and every circum-
stance. If there is inequality in a community, fix the inequality and do something about the people perpetuating it. The violence that happens to many people of color at the hands of the police is not justified, it is murder. BLM (Black Lives Matter) doesn’t mean that other lives don’t matter; it just means that black lives matter too. It’s a movement meant to bring light to a history of black and brown lives mattering less than white lives. The focus is around equality, not superiority. This is a distinction I didn’t understand when BLM started in 2013. In fact, I was a supporter of All Lives Matter because I didn’t understand what BLM was really fighting for. At the time, most of the news media I consumed was exclusively conservative and anything outside that sphere was considered wrong. I was taught to hate left-wing media regardless of the message. I engaged with news and media without having the ability to consider it critically and accepting only one side of the story as truth. Any dissenting opinions were wrong, and I would have been seen as a traitor for expressing them. I felt like I didn’t know enough to question these sources and was afraid to speak up against voices seemingly more powerful than mine. Seeing only one approach to BLM kept me from considering continued on next page www.bozemanmagazine.com

Black Lives Matter p.34 the true meaning of the movement. I saw BLM as a movement seeking to divide us on the basis of race instead of unity.
The Civil Rights Act was signed in 1964 This is much more recent than we would like to acknowledge. Leaders like Martin Luther King Jr. died fighting for Civil Rights, and we have since accepted our country as non-racist by default. We assumed we had beaten racism for good. This lie was especially easy for me to believe growing up because I had never lived it or experienced it. I also benefit from being a woman and passing as white; both characteristics have given me privilege over other POC (People of Color). Though major progress was made during that movement, the fight against racism is far from over. Black people have to live in this country with the reality that they are still not treated equally. Those who continue to participate in and benefit from systemic racism get to feel like racism isn’t an issue anymore, but the reality is that the system is still inherently stacked against POC. There have been two recent BLM protests in Bozeman: one on Sunday May 31st and another on Friday June 5th. Both were led by BIPoC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) and sponsored by The Montana Racial Equity Project and the Black Student Union at MSU. Attending the two protests sparked a lot of different emotions for me. I felt optimistic and empowered by the number of people coming together in solidarity against racism, both locally and nationally. It was encouraging seeing just how many non-black people showed up to stand next to black and brown people in our community. Although counter-protesters with guns were present, they were greatly outnumbered by BLM protesters. The protests were peaceful and well-organized, following social-distancing and safety protocol to the best of its ability. Nearly all the protesters were wearing face coverings. There were also 36
July 2020
people trained in de-escalation procedures and people to hand out masks and water. I was proud of our community. It’s easy to decide not to act, to not show up to a fight that seemingly isn’t yours. Especially coming from a culture that tends to suppress its younger members, it was good to see some fellow Asian protesters speaking out against injustice. Being an active ally for POC is difficult; it can be hard to know where to start, what to do. I have considered myself an ally of POC for several years without actually having taken action. To understand your role as an ally is to remember that not being racist is simply the baseline, but being anti-racist is where we should all strive to be. To be complacent is to perpetuate systemic racism, and in doing so you fail in your role as an ally of POC. In order to make the change, you must educate yourself on the topic. In the interest of further education, I recommend a list of readings that address race relations directly: How to Be an Anti-racist Ibram X. Kendi, White Fragility Robin DiAngelo; Me and White Supremacy Layla Saad; So You Want to Talk About Race Iljeoma Oluo It is difficult during times of tension to have conversations with friends and family. To make a change, you must be willing to be uncomfortable. Mistakes will be made, but effort has to be put in to make progress. Do not alienate or attack people. Be calm and factual in your assertions. If you meet resistance, do not be offended or defensive, take it as a chance to learn something new and help others do the same. Ultimately, what’s going on right now isn’t about me. It’s about understanding the fear and frustration Black Americans feel on a daily basis. It’s about amplifying the needs and voices of those who are suffering. It’s about focusing energy towards the groups that need the most help right now. And as a non-black person, it means standing against injustice. This is our fight too. c Cassie Pfannenstiel is an intern and senior at MSU.

4-H
Is Not Canceled Heidi Donnelly
A
s with everything else around us, the Gallatin County 4-H program looks different this year because of the pandemic. However, JaNaie’ Godin, the Gallatin County 4-H Agent, and program leaders and volunteers have been working to make sure that 4-H members are still getting as many opportunities as possible from the programs available to them. Under normal circumstances, clubs and projects meet in person regularly and move forward on projects and participate in activities. The culmination of the 4-H year happens at the Big Sky Country State Fair. This year, with social distancing orders and the fair being CANCELED, how do 4-H members meet the criteria and goals of the huge number of various programs in an environment of strict social distancing orders? They do it just like most of us. Educators had to pivot to various online platforms and systems of sending work home to students, many businesses modified their structure
38
July 2020
to include virtual meetings, telework, take out and even converting their product lines, and employees figured out how to effectively work remotely while taking care of various personal and family matters due to restrictions, school closures and other unforeseen circumstances. Gallatin County youth and their leaders did the pivot also and delivered 4-H virtually to hundreds of members in Gallatin County. And it worked. Gallatin 4-H was not CANCELED, and the cumulation of those efforts are still planned for the same week as the fair was scheduled. Members with both indoor and animal projects can enter the competition and have their efforts judged against the efforts of their fellow members. That much is the same. As in the past, before members can be a part of the fair competition, they need to complete their record books and also participate in an interview. These have been held on site, but this year they will be all virtual. Judges will be all in one spot with a laptop
and headphones. One of the major changes that will come out of this is the way they nominate members for record book awards. Normally members are nominated by their interviewing judges, but since they are going virtual, they won’t have the members’ record books in front of them. To compensate for that, project leaders who are already required to sign record books can also nominate members for this award. Godin believes this will be a practice that stays around because it is ultimately the leaders who know the members and know how far they have come in their projects. Due to restrictions, the public currently cannot be invited to come to the exhibition. For projects that don’t depend on the public, like cake decorating, photography, and the horse or dairy goat projects, this is not a big deal. However, many members have animals they are hoping to show and then sell at the annual 4-H market sale. Beef, swine, sheep, goats, turkeys, rabbits and chickens are raised and trained and shown
www.bozemanmagazine.com
Bozeman Magazine JULY 2020.indd 38
6/23/20 4:56 PM
and then sold to a crowd of locals made up of business owners and individuals, many of whom have made it an annual event they attend and support. Some 4-H families who normally participate in market projects chose not to get animals to sell this year. Many others questioned whether it was a good idea. They didn’t know how the year would look and didn’t want to be stuck with 5 pigs or 2 steers. Other families would have chosen to not participate had the timing been a little later, since everything started changing just as many of the deadlines to acquire market animals were looming. Another reason was that they didn’t feel it was right to ask businesses and individuals for support (money) when there are already so many financial unknowns. In spite of this, the biggest market project, the swine project, still has over 200 animals, and the number of market animals entered is still around 300. According to Godin, from the beginning, there was always a plan to move forward with a market sale, even if there was no market show and the sale was all virtual. Currently, the market sale plan looks very similar to what it has been in the past, but with the addition of an online option. The auction will be held Friday, July 17 beginning at 5 pm in the same location. Potential bidders can participate in person or virtually this year. To reduce crowding and encourage social distancing, the capacity will be limited to less than recommended, and there will be a tent with a closed-circuit live feed of the auction for the in-person option. And instead of the traditional buyer barbeque, buyers will receive food vouchers that are good for the whole evening. Potential buyers can get the information here when it is available: http://gallatin. msuextension.org/4hbuyers.html.
According to Godin, the Extension Office has been getting a higher number of calls asking about where to get local meat. They are compiling a list of those interested and will be sending them buyer information when it is available so they can participate in the auction, even if it is from their home. Non-market projects are also feeling the financial pressure. The Gallatin Twisters 4-H horse drill team made the decision not to enter the Montana State Drill Team Association’s annual competition that is being held in Kalispell in August. Last year, they competed there for the first time and placed 3rd in the state. In its place, they will be participating in the Gem State Virtual drill competition. The cost of the virtual competition is a small fraction of what it would be to enter and then travel with the 16 team members, their families, and their horses to Kalispell. Since they missed many of their spring practices, they will be having a drill camp at WB Ranch Co. in Belgrade to prepare for the competition. There is also an effort underway to create a public website that will have a photo of every entry with the ribbon it earned. Since the public can’t come see every entry in person, this will allow them to see every entry virtually. It is a huge undertaking, and Godin is enlisting the help of every 4-H or non-4-H volunteer willing to help and every employee in the Extension office, even if 4-H is not their job. If you are interested in helping with this or any other aspect of 4-H and the exhibition, including judging project entries, interviewing members, or participating as a buyer at the market sale, call the extension office at 406-582-3280. This event is the highlight of the year for many young members of our county and their families. They need your support
more than ever this year, even if it doesn’t look like it has in the past. d Heidi is a 4-H mom who loves teaching, writing and grammar, her husband & kids, her horses and dogs.

Bozeman Real Estate MARKET REPORT
Tim Ford – Real Estate Broker
T
he Coronavirus slowed the Bozeman housing market down for a few weeks, but it has come roaring back. The market is extremely busy again, and we’re back to seeing many properties receiving multiple offers. In these situations, buyers who aren’t able to pay cash often struggle to compete. As such, it can be interesting to compare the percentage of cash sales over the years. Looking at cash only transactions for sales of single family homes in all of Bozeman between January 1st and June 1st: In 2018, 102 out of 386 sales, or 26.4%, were cash purchases. This was the largest percentage I’ve seen since I’ve started tracking this number. Last year, the percentage dipped just a bit to 25.7%, or 88 out of the 343 sales. This year, its even lower at 62 of 311 sales, or just shy of 20%. Even though it edges slightly up and down over the years, the percentage of sales is generally fairly consistent. In 2015, 85 of the 371 sales during the first 5 months were cash, or 22.9%. In 2014, it was 70 of the 318 sales, or 22%, and in 2013, 61 of the 276 sales, or 22.1% were cash purchases. The downtown area, which is attracting a lot of out-of-state buyers, has one of the higher percentages of cash-only transactions. Two years ago, 22 out of 71 single family homes purchased were bought with cash, or 31%. Last year, 18 of the 56 homes sold were purchased with cash, roughly 32%. That number is up to 39% this year, or 20 of 51 homes sold. Looking at downtown condos in 2018, 16 out of 33 sales, or 48%, were cash purchases. Last year, 12 out of 33, or 36%, were cash purchases. This year, 37.5%, or 9 of the 24 condos sold were purchased with cash. Buyers who don’t have cash that end up in multiple offer situations can still try to be competitive. At the end of the day, most people still prefer more money in their pocket, so there’s a good chance that a higher offer with financing could beat out a lower offer with cash, but not always. Buyers can also do their best to make their offer as attractive as possible by closely analyzing their contingencies and all the terms of their offer. We’re starting to see more buyers submit offers without inspection contingencies as an attempt to be competitive. I’ve seen more than one seller choose a lower offer without an inspection contingency over a

higher offer with one. As usual, I have included data for the number of single family homes sold during the first five months of 2020. In addition to the 311 single family homes sold during this time period, another 207 homes are currently pending, or under contract, as of the date of writing this article. That compares to 187 homes pending at this same time last year. The included data reflects sales of homes in the greater Bozeman area, including Four Corners, Gallatin Gateway, Bridger Canyon, and Bozeman city limits. The data includes home sales reported through the local Big Sky Country MLS, and does not include private party sales, condominiums, or townhouses. f Tim Ford is a RealtorÂŽ with Bozeman Brokers Real Estate in Bozeman Montana.

n the past few years, we’ve seen a surge in outdoor seating options in Bozeman, and it’s not just limited to downtown. There are restaurants, cafes, breweries and bars all over Bozeman with outdoor patios for us to enjoy. Here’s a list of our best places with patios in Bozeman.
Bozeman Taproom
Bridger views? Check. Huge beer selection? Check. Wine on tap? Check. The Bozeman Taproom pretty much covers all the bases for happy hour after work or for dinner out. The rooftop patio is always the coveted spot, but if it’s too crowded there are also tables outside on the street level. If the big doors are open, it does not matter if you are inside or out!
MAP Brewing
MAP Brewing is no doubt a Bozeman favorite! The patio overlooks the Glen Lake Rotary Park pond with some of the best Bridger views in town. Seriously, it’s tough to find a patio with a better view in Bozeman. MAP has great beer, great food, and is one of our favorite breweries in Bozeman. The only problem is it’s tough to find a seat!
Bridger Brewing
Pizza, beer, and views are what you’ll get from Bridger Brewing’s fantastic second-story patio! This is the perfect place to soak up the sun and the south side views for happy hour drinks or dinner.
Foxtrot
THE R Bar
Sidewinders
The Cannery District
One of Bozeman’s newest restaurants, Foxtrot, is located in The Market building in Ferguson Farm. They have a big, spacious patio and will be filling it up this summer with live music every Saturday night as part of their Summer Concert Series. With a west-facing patio, this is a great place to catch those awesome summer sunsets we have here in Bozeman.
Sidewinders in Ferguson Farm on the west side of Bozeman is the patio for summer sunsets. They have a wide variety of beers on tap and a great, family-friendly menu, along with comfortable seating, heaters and the best west-facing views in town.
Plonk
Plonk is the best place to enjoy a cocktail outside. The front patio is perfect for people watching on Main Street, but the back patio is our favorite, with beautiful green foliage and a private, tucked-away feeling. This is our top pick for a girls’ night, date night, or happy hour!
Cafe Fresco
Just off of Main Street is Cafe Fresco, some of the best Italian food you can find in Bozeman. With Bozeman Creek flowing beside and mature trees for shade, on the Cafe Fresco patio, you hardly notice that you are downtown! With a glass of wine in hand and some delicious pasta, you could almost trick yourself into thinking you’re in Italy (almost!)
On any given sunny day in Bozeman, you will see many happy people sitting at the R Bar patio. What we really love is how they open up the garage-style doors, making all the front tables feel like you are right outside. This is a great place for some people watching and a bucket of beer. If you can’t find a table here, check next door at one of downtown’s newest bars El Camino.
There are several options for patio dining in the Cannery District. Pizza Campania has a great little patio with a firepit, and if you haven’t had their pizza yet, do yourself a favor and go there! Seven has a lot of outdoor seating complete with twinkle lights and a couple of couches. Behind Wildrye Distilling and Dean’s Zesty Booch is a large patio area that is relatively unknown, whether you are having a drink from Wildrye or kombucha from Dean’s, you can enjoy it on this spacious patio.
Outlaw Brewing
One of Bozeman’s best breweries also has a great patio! There’s green space right next to it for the kids and dogs to run around and almost always a food truck in the parking lot to get some food to go with your beer. m Angela Jamison is on the marketing team at Bozeman Real Estate Group.
