EDITOR’S NOTE

STAYCATION IDEAS FOR SPRING BREAK Angie Ripple

LIVE MUSIC Bozeman loves music, and it’s back on a regular basis at many local venues. Our calendar of events is the best place to check for specifics. Offering more than a title and time, you’ll get a little more info to help you find the best place for your taste. Family-friendly settings include Red Tractor Pizza, Bozeman Taproom, The ELM, and The Ellen Theatre. The late-night crowd will want to check out Open Mic night at The Haufbrau, country dancing at The Jump, and whoever is playing the Tune Up Bar at the Armory, the Single Barrel Bar, or the Filling Station. Another option is an intimate show at Live From the Divide. Events are added to our online calendar regularly—check it for the most up-to-date info. ESCAPE ROOM If you can’t escape Bozeman, you might as well try an escape room! Bozeman has two to choose from, and Big Sky has an epic escape experience at The Warren Miller Performing Arts Center. There, you’ll encounter Beyond the Fourth Wall, an immersive escape-room-style game. Groups of up to 12 people have the theater to themselves for the night (multiple times to choose from). Your group will be divided into two teams, which then compete against each other to crack the code. Make some memories with this big idea. GET SCIENCY We have two great homes for science in Bozeman: the Museum of the Rockies, and the Montana Science Center. Neither are new to Bozeman, but both have continuously changing exhibits and events to keep the community engaged and learning. Sign kids up for a full week of camp at the Science Center over Spring Break, or just drop in for hands-on science experiments and crafts at the Science Station each day. The current large exhibit at the Museum of the Rockies is “LUSTER: Realism and Hyperrealism in Contemporary Automobile and Motorcycle Painting,” a traveling museum exhibition comprised of over 55 paintings by nearly 15 of today’s realists and hyperrealists who specialize in automobiles and motorcycles as their primary subject. The Museum of the Rockies is known for its collection of dinosaur bones, of course, so you can’t go wrong with a walk through the Siebel Dinosaur Complex. TRIVIA NIGHTS How many times will the average American walk the distance of the equator in his or her lifetime? Where was the first Barbie Doll manufactured? Name the four types of animals with scales. If you are a lover of Trivia, Bozeman and its surrounding areas have you covered with questions every Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evening. Monday nights at the Bozeman Taproom, Tuesdays at the Bacchus Pub and the Tune Up Bar at the Armory, and Wednesdays at SHINE Beer Sanctuary + Bottle Shop and Pine Creek Café. Check our calendar for more information. There are plenty of interesting places to go and events to be a part of in Bozeman this March.

LETTER TO EDITOR

COMMUNITY PLANNING & NEIGHBORHOOD TRANSITIONS Holly Fretwell

n February 9, 2022, the City Commission decided to allow a zoning change on Lamme Street between North Grand and North Third Avenues from R-4 (high-density residential) to B-3 (downtown business). This is not the first zoning change in the neighborhood and they can have a significant impact. In light of this, I encourage everyone to pay attention to the proposed developments in our neighborhood and the transition, or lack thereof, between residential and commercial zones. Transitions can make a big difference by providing space between residential homes and 70-foot buildings. Black-Olive is one example. What is proposed for the Medical Arts Building is another. The North Central Master Site is the development proposed by HomeBase Partners, covering 4.4 acres located between West Lamme, West Villard, North Grand, and North Tracy. This includes the block of the Medical Arts Building, its parking lot, and the old hospital. The developer proposed nine 6-story (70-foot-tall) square sided, flat roof buildings. You have likely seen the demolition of the Mountain View Building adjacent to the old Deaconess Hospital, which is to come down as well. Similar to the recent zoning change on Lamme, the Commission in 2019 made a zoning change to the Medical Arts Building parking lot from R-4 to B-3. On December 20 last year, the City Commission conditionally approved the Master Site plan (application No 21029) in its Staff Report. Included in that plan is the Ives building (application No 2116). Under the North Central Master Site plan, each individual building within the planned development is conditionally approved by the city. The acceptance suggests that the City Commission approves the developer’s vision of the four-block area and essentially surrenders rights to evaluate individual projects as inconsistent with current community character, as long as they are consistent with the character proposed in the Master Site Plan. A group of adjacent businesses and landowners appealed the decision based on the potential for substantial and irrevocable change to the character of Bozeman as determined by a single developer’s vision. The appeal requests the city to reverse the conditional approval in the Staff Report and instead require each building to be “reviewed individually, rather than as a ‘condition’ of approval of the overall Master Plan.” About 70 public comments were submitted for the November 2021 meeting that prefaced the City Commission’s Staff Report ac-

cepting the proposal. Nearly all of them noted the existing proposal as problematic under current Bozeman Municipal Code and other community plans and regulations. The Staff Report and decision to accept the Master Site Plan did not adequately address most of those concerns. Comments included concerns that the proposed Master Plan would adversely impact:

THE CHARACTER OF BOZEMAN’S NORTH EAST NEIGHBORHOOD QUALITY OF LIFE BUSINESS AND PROPERTY VALUES ACCESS TO ADEQUATE LIGHT AND AIR TRAFFIC CONGESTION AND NOISE PARKING IN THE DOWNTOWN CORE AREA HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOODS

WHAT’S YOUR BEEF?

The Master Plan, as accepted by the Commission, does not align with the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District of which it is a part (Bozeman Municipal Code 38.320.10), nor with the Community Plan. For example, the Commission’s Staff Report notes that the transition on the north and west side of the proposed Ives building is not congruent with current neighborhood character, as it towers over the existing residential homes. Rather than using the proposed Ives building as an opportunity to help the city develop better transition precedent between residential homes and tall commercial buildings, the report identifies the Ives as incongruous, but then uses it as an example transition for the rest of the colossal development. Additionally, the appeal notes that the Master Plan exacerbates existing problems of parking and congestion, and goes against the stated goals for appropriate development as defined by the city code, Bozeman Guidelines for Historic Preservation, the Neighborhood Conservation Overlay District, and other community plans. This Master Plan is setting a precedent for how the City Commission accommodates Bozeman’s growth. This approach has been authoritarian in its dismissal of public input and disregard for numerous city plans, codes, and regulations. To maintain the cultural fabric and flavor of our community, development needs to consider transitions between residential and commercial areas, parking and congestion needs, resident safety, and open space—all items that have been carefully considered under the Bozeman Municipal Code and planning recommendations. Now is our opportunity as a community to let the City Commission know we care. A public hearing on the appeal will be held during the regular

City Commission meeting on Tuesday, March 8, 2022 at 6:00pm. Comments on the appeal are open until March 3rd and can be submitted to Bozeman City Clerk, P.O. Box 1230, Bozeman, MT 59771-1230 or by email to agenda@bozeman. net. Oral statements will be heard at the March 8 City Commission meeting. Comments should identify the specific criteria of concern in the Bozeman Municipal Code and present the facts in support of the comment. I encourage you to become informed, discuss the issue with others, and let City Commissioners know how their actions are diverging from the designated process that should ensure a safe, healthy community that maintains the attributes you desire for Bozeman. If you want to be heard, you have to speak up. B Holly Fretwell has lived in Bozeman for 40 years and currently resides in the North East neighborhood.

ELIZABETH LOFTIS

or as long as she can remember, Elizabeth Geers Loftis has loved drawing and painting, so it wasn’t surprising when she chose to study art at Colorado State University. Her life took an amazing twist when she married a fellow Coloradan, Bob Loftis, who was starting a career as a U.S. diplomat. For over 30 years, they traveled the world: Guinea-Bissau, Brazil, New Zealand, Switzerland, Mozambique, Lesotho, Virginia, and Boston. She continued to create art, but it wasn’t until her arrival in Southern Africa that she found a never-ending supply of inspiration in the people, landscapes, wildlife, colors, and patterns. It was in Mozambique that Elizabeth developed her unique technique with oil pastel and watercolor. She begins her paintings with oil pastel, then overlays with watercolor. The oil pastel resists the watercolor, mimicking a block print effect. Recently, she started drawing women in ornate-patterned blankets riding horses. While this reflects her love and respect for the Indian women of the American west, it is also something she frequently saw in Lesotho, amid snow and 10,000-foot mountains. The Loftis’s first visited Bozeman when their son, Matt, attended school at MSU. Their original plan was to retire in Colorado, but after seeing Bozeman, they knew this had to be their new home. They retired here in 2020, and could not be happier. Elizabeth loves being part of the Bozeman art scene. You can find originals and prints of her work at LeeAnn Ramey Art, a wonderful downtown gallery located in the Emerson Center For The Arts & Culture. She recently won second place for one of her two pieces in the winter Sweet Pea Art show at ERA Landmark on Main. When not creating art, Elizabeth enjoys hiking, skiing, and walking with her golden retriever, Diego. Follow Elizabeth Loftis Art on Instagram, and visit elizabethloftis.com B

CONSIDERING A PURCHASE? Five Reasons to Meet with a Lender Early Tim Ford – Real Estate Broker

rying to buy a home in any market is challenging right now, and Bozeman is one of the hottest and most competitive markets for home buyers. For those folks even considering financing the purchase of a home, it’s more important than ever to meet with a lender very early in the process. One of the most important parts of financing a purchase is understanding how much a buyer can afford. A lender can help by outlining what different monthly payments will look like at different price points. Sometimes a buyer might consider buying down the interest rate by paying a little extra at closing to secure a lower interest rate and monthly payment. A lender can help determine if this makes financial sense or not. A lender can also help a buyer understand what a reasonable or necessary down payment is. Down payment requirements vary widely, depending on the loan program and what the property will be used for. Some buyers may be surprised to learn that lenders require larger down payments for second homes or income properties. Additionally, the down payment requirements may vary across property types like condos, singlefamily homes, and multi-family dwellings. Lastly, for some loan programs, if a buyer is not putting 20% down, they may have to pay an extra monthly amount for mortgage insurance, and understanding how that works is very beneficial. Many first-time buyers look to relatives for assistance with their down payment. Lenders generally refer to this as “gift funds.” It can matter how long the funds are in a buyer’s account, and where they came from. We’ve heard of buyers experiencing delays when converting cryptocurrencies into

March 2022

U.S. dollars. Discussing where the down payment funds are coming from and how this will affect the loan is another important basis for meeting with a lender early. One of the biggest reasons to meet with a lender early is to get pre-qualified, so you’re ready to strike when that perfect property hits the market. Properties in today’s market frequently receive offers within hours of hitting the market. Hours, not days. Many properties come on over the weekend, and a buyer may not have time to reach out to their lender to get pre-qualified fast enough if they haven’t done so already. Pre-qualifying early in the process is vital, especially when so many properties are seeing multiple offers. Tackling the pre-qualification process can be more important for business owners and high-income earners, as their tax returns are often complicated, and it can take extra time for a lender to approve their sources of income. Lastly, it’s not unheard of for a buyer’s credit score to contain inaccurate information, leading to a lower score. In the event there are mistakes, it can take time to remedy. Getting this checked early will hopefully allow a buyer ample time to get their credit score cleaned up if need be. I have included recent sales data for the first month of 2022. In addition to the 51 homes sold in January, another 83 homes are currently under contract or pending as of the date of writing. This data reflects sales of homes in the greater Bozeman area, including Four Corners, Gallatin Gateway, Bridger Canyon, and within Bozeman city limits. The data includes home sales reported through the local Big Sky Country MLS; it does not include private party sales, condominiums, or townhouses. F

Indulge Yourself At Vienne

March 2022

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Maisie Bissell

t feels great to be healthy and work out, but let’s face it—we all get a sweet tooth every now and then. Vienne, a newly established, French-inspired bakery and café located at 101 S. Wallace Avenue (near the Bozeman Public Library) is the perfect place in which to indulge. Although it is small, the décor and mood are incredible! Walking in, it feels as if you are actually in France. The color scheme consists of black, white, and red, and each table holds a vase full of bright red roses. Beautiful black and white images adorn the walls, and large windows offer an amazing view of the Bridger mountain range. The menu includes all sorts of pastries, breads, sandwiches, and coffee.

CEO Anna Mendoza was inspired to open Vienne while doing a pastry internship in France at a restaurant in Condrieu, a small town neighboring the village of Vienne. Her husband, Daniel Mendoza, has a background in the hospitality industry, as well as in wine and food service. This brings a great balance to Anna’s baking skills and really brings Vienne together. In French, Vienne means “come here,” which, in my opinion, is a sign to the people in Bozeman that we should do just that! MAISIE BISSELL: Can you explain, how was Vienne conceptualized?

ANNA MENDOZA: I knew I wanted to start my own bakery when I finished my stage (culinary internship) in France. I absolutely fell in love with baking and pastry, and knew that a bakery was the direction I wanted to go. My stage was in Condrieu, France, just next door to Vienne, and I used to ride my motorcycle over to Vienne on a pretty regular basis. It was such a beautiful little town and had such a rich culinary history, I was just enamored with it. Down the road, as I gained experience working in various bakeries and restaurants in San Francisco and New York, the picture of what I wanted Vienne to be started to come into focus. I have always been drawn to the artistic side of being a pastry chef, and presentation is very important to me, so continued on next page www.bozemanmagazine.com

March 2022

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Vienne p.14 I knew that my bakery needed to be elegant and high-end to go with the pastries I was planning to make. The last three years I was in San Francisco, I worked on developing and testing recipes, so that when the right opportunity presented itself I would be ready to go. My husband Daniel and I moved to Bozeman two years ago, and I immediately hit the ground running, looking for a space for our concept. We happened on the space we’re in now, and I knew instantly this was the spot. I had always imagined lots of windows and light coming into the bakery, and a black and white color scheme that would make the pastries pop, and 101 S. Wallace fit my vision completely. So we started the crazy journey of designing the space, doing construction, and finally moving in to open Vienne on May 4th, 2021. MB: What do you want people to experience when they walk through your doors? AM: I’ve always wanted Vienne to be an escape for people. I want it to be a place where they can indulge themselves, relax, catch up with friends and forget about the crazy world around them for just a moment. MB: What makes Vienne unique in the Bozeman food scene? AM: Being that we are a French concept bakery, I think that makes us unique to the other bakeries around town. We really do try to make pastries and bread that are reminiscent of France, and things that a lot of people in Bozeman probably haven’t had in a long time, if ever.

made mistakes, and corrected them has been amazing. They’ve been so kind and understanding when things weren’t quite where we were hoping they would be; it took us some time to get them there. MB: Do you have anything coming up that readers should know about? AM: Not at this time. We’ll be constantly working on expanding the menu, but staffing is still an issue, so I don’t want to make any promises. MB: How often do you change your menu? AM: Seasonally, at least every three months. We revamped the menu when we re-opened in January and have several items, such as bread pudding and turnovers, that we change up with whatever is in season. MB: Do you have any goals for expanding Vienne? AM: Yes, our first addition is going to be a wine bar and cheese case, but dates for that are still very much in the air. My husband is a certified sommelier, so the wine bar will be more his baby, while I’ll keep the bakery side going. Once that is completed we’ll look at doing another location, possibly in Four Corners or Big Sky, depending on what opportunities present themselves. There are no timelines for any of that at this point.

We definitely have some die-hard bread fans as well, and most recently there are quite a few who have been coming back for our tomato soup. MB: What is your personal favorite menu item? AM: That’s a hard one. It’s a toss-up between the French Canelés and the Chocolate Almond Croissant. MB: What do you personally enjoy most about being part of the Bozeman community? AM: I love seeing the regulars coming in every week and showing their appreciation for what we’re doing. It’s been really fun getting to know their names and stories. The patience the community as a whole has shown us as we’ve worked out the kinks,

Vienne offers a delightful and truly delicious experience; once you visit, you’ll want to come back again and again. It’s the perfect spot if you’re looking for a place to read, do homework, take someone out on a date, or just chill. There is a lot of natural light, providing a great place to have a morning or afternoon cup of coffee. When I visited, I tried the “morning bun” (think gourmet cinnamon roll), and can most definitely recommend it! Vienne’s menu has so many options that you may have a hard time choosing, but honestly, anything you order will taste fantastic! Next time you find yourself craving a sweet treat, check out Vienne and see all that it has to offer. I promise you won’t regret it! They are open every day except Monday.

SHAKE YOUR MONEY MAKER PLAYED IN ITS ENTIRETY KETTLEHOUSE AMPHITHEATRE AUGUST 13

Ryan Torres

ulti platinum selling rock band, The Black Crowes, will play their hit album, Shake Your Money Maker, in its entirety at KettleHouse Amphitheater on Saturday, August 13, 2022. They’ll be performing other hits from their acclaimed catalog as well. Formed by brothers Chris and Rich Robinson in the mid 80s in Marietta, Georgia, The Black Crowes have sold more than 30 million albums. A good chunk of that has come from their 1990 debut, Shake Your Money Maker, which included the hit singles “Twice As Hard”, “Jealous Again”, “Hard to Handle” and “She Talks to Angels.” The album also helped The Black Crowes get voted as the Best New American Band in the Rolling Stone readers and critics polls. In 2021, The Black Crowes celebrated the 5-time platinum certified album with the release of Shake Your Money Maker (30th Anniversary Deluxe Edition). In 1990, when journalists were lamenting the death of rock, as cheesy pop and hair metal dominated the charts, Atlanta’s Black Crowes gave the genre a swift and much-needed kick in the ass with

Shake Your Money Maker. Fueled by singles “Jealous Again,” “Twice As Hard,” “She Talks To Angels,” and the break-through cover of Otis Redding’s “Hard To Handle,” the band immediately took the rock world by storm, topping Rolling Stone’s “Best New American Band Readers Poll” in late 1990. The Black Crowes went on to release eight studio and four live albums, selling in the tens of millions along the way; they sold-out shows around the world; had legendary guitarist Jimmy Page join as a member; got kicked off a tour with ZZ Top for insulting the sponsor; got screwed by bad record deals; got married and divorced, fought amongst themselves and against the rest of the world. In other words, they’ve done everything a legendary rock group should do. Tickets to this concert went on sale Friday, February 25, 2022. While supplies last they are available at the Top Hat in Missoula, online or by phone at 1 (800) 514-3849.

ogjam Presents is pleased to welcome Corb Lund with support from Lauren Morrow for a live in concert performance at The ELM on April 2, 2022. Corb Lund has received multiple CCMA, Juno, and international award nominations and wins. A rural Albertan hailing from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains with a long family lineage of ranchers and rodeo people, Lund is about as authentic as they come. Embracing both his Western heritage and his indie rock past through his music, Lund has been known to filter a range of cowboy themes past and present through his unique lens – from rough-and-tumble tales of lawless frontier saloons to the somber realities of running a modern family ranch. Lund released his highly anticipated album Agricultural Tragic via New West Records on June 26th, 2020, his first album of original songs in five years, too much acclaim; the album debut inside the top 5 in both the US and Canada. It was named #7 on the No Depression Readers’ “50 Favor-

ite Roots Music Albums of 2020” with the publication saying, “Eloquent and plainspoken, the excellent Agricultural Tragic finds the affable country rocker exploring his roots as a rancher and rodeo rider while striving to adapt this traditional identity to the challenging modern world… Corb Lund radiates authenticity from first note to last.” The Associated Press said “The result is a distinctive sound — call it Country & Northwestern — that romances the region from which Lund hails,” American Songwriter stated, “The songs on Agricultural Tragic sparkle with a kind of authenticity that only someone who lives that life can project” while Saving Country Music said it was “…some of the most compelling country and western music you can find.” Stay tuned for more music imminently on the horizon for Lund... With a high-octave range and a Georgia drawl, Lauren Morrow isn’t here to sing a love song — she’s here to tell a story. And though she might be new to Nashville, she’s already paved her way as one of the city’s most

promising artists. You might know her as the crown jewel of The Whiskey Gentry, who have toured with Three Dog Night, Cracker, and Butch Walker, appearing on festival bills like Shaky Knees, MerleFest, and Bristol Rhythm & Roots (to name a few). It’s the small details like those that set Lauren Morrow apart. Musically she’s talented, lyrically she’s talented, there’s no question to that; but Morrow’s ingenuity shines through in the studio and on stage. Whether she’s singing a murder ballad or an vintage, classic-country sounding banger, there’s a unique impression she leaves that lingers. You don’t want to miss it. Tickets for Corb Lund with support from Lauren Morrow for a live in concert performance at The ELM on April 2, 2022 are available online at: logjampresents.com or by phone at 1 (800) 514-3849.

BROADWAY HIT COMING TO BOZEMAN

Colleen Angarone

his month, Bozeman residents have the opportunity to attend a performance of Angels in America, Part 1: Millennium Approaches. Debuting for the first time in Montana, the Broadway hit from award-winning playwright Tony Kushner, directed by longtime Bozeman theater actor, director, and producer, Cara Wilder, will be performed weekends March 11- 20 in The Emerson’s Crawford Theater. Kushner’s two-part production has won several awards, including a Tony for best play in 1992, and a Pulitzer Prize for drama in 1993. Revived for Broadway in 2017, the play featured outstanding performances by Andrew Garfield and Nathan Lane. Set in mid-1980s New York, Angels in America explores AIDS, homosexuality, Reagan-era politics, and religion through the eyes of several characters whose storylines intermingle over time. A gay man, Prior Walter, is diagnosed with AIDS and left to cope with his condition, receiving support solely from his friend Belize, an ex-drag queen and a hospital nurse. While this is going on, we follow another character, Joe Pitt, a man who is married, a Mormon, and a Republican clerk. He begins working in the same office as Louis Ironson, under the mentorship of Roy Cohn, a fictional representation of the late Republican lawyer. Over time, true identities and feelings start spilling from everyone’s closed doors, leading to complicated relationships and raw self-realizations. Kushner’s themes discuss community, identity, and stasis during a time when social and political discourse surrounding homosexuality was rapidly shifting.

March 2022

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Despite grappling with a very intense and heartbreaking subject, the production possesses both magical and comedic charm, including the presence of supernatural, angelic entities. Wilder mentions that the magical elements require a sort of “technical wizardry,” which will contribute to the play’s “youthful spirit,” certainly a quality we all need while dealing with a global pandemic. This production could not be more timely. The AIDS epidemic is similar to the COVID-19 pandemic in that politics and personal relationships are largely at odds with each other. Throughout this pandemic, we have been devastated by broken relationships, loss, loneliness, and a government that doesn’t always hear our cries for help. At its worst, those affected by the AIDS epidemic were left without substantial medical attention and support because of oppressive political and religious forces that actively hushed the crisis. Part 1 of Angels in America features eight actors playing the role of sixteen characters. Fortunately for the Bozeman production, fourteen actors fill the different roles, which, Wilder says, “has allowed a broader opportunity for area actors and more time for in-depth character exploration.” Aaron Murtaugh plays Prior, a complex character quite different from his own identity. “I’m a quiet, laid back, new dad,” says Aaron. “Prior is tough, sharp and combative, and always has something to say,” he adds. Despite these differences, he’s taken on the challenge with excitement, and feels

humbled by the experience so far. Jenna Ciralli, who grew up in Great Falls, plays Joe Pitt’s wife, Harper, who struggles with addiction and agoraphobia. Like Tony Kushner, Ciralli believes that pitying the characters ignores the meaning of the play. “He is setting this intention that we don’t pity those who have AIDS, but we see beauty and strength and resilience in them. We remember those we’ve lost, but honor those who have lived on, and we see it as an integrative web, not something that’s black and white. There’s honor to these characters, and there’s a fight,” she says. An Awareness Event that supports the wider LGBTQ+ community will be held alongside the production. Before each performance and during intermission, representatives from local organizations will be on hand to educate attendees about the importance of supporting members of the queer community. This is an opportunity for Bozeman residents to amplify the voices of marginalized groups, especially in a political climate which targets queer community members. Recent policy passed by the Montana State legislature specifically affects the lives of transgender Montanans, including a bill that bans transgender athletes from competing in school and university sports teams if they don’t correlate with the athlete’s biological sex. Angels in America touches on similar sociopolitical conversations that marginalize and limit opportunities for members of the queer community, and change is often met with resistance.

Hopefully, as the pandemic winds down, productions like this one won’t be as few and far between. Speaking of which, the Angels in America crew is considering mounting Part 2: Perestroika sometime in the near future. Inviting conversations about marginalization, diversity, and inclusion generates acceptance and understanding among community members. As we’ve learned from this pandemic, reckoning with the changes of the time and within ourselves is key to adapting and pushing through to the end. Angels in America, Part 1: Millennium Approaches focuses heavily on these themes with some tears, chuckles, and magic that promise to leave the audience with a glimmer of hope in their eyes towards the future of the human condition. Advance tickets ($12 - $22) are available at www.eventbrite.com. Tickets will be $25 at the door on performance nights as available. Due to strong language and adult situations, this play is recommended for ages 16+. Presented by a grassroots team of Bozeman and Livingston theater artists, monetary and in-kind support is appreciated to offset production costs. For information on making a donation towards this production, please contact Cara Wilder at wilder1world@gmail.com A Colleen Angarone is a senior at MSU completing an English-Writing major. She is particularly interested in Women and Gender Studies and Southeastern Asian culture, with a plan to teach English in Japan one day.

LIVING LOCAL

9 MONTHS OF WINTER

March 2022

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Ben Zavora

he menacing groan of steel against asphalt stirs me from my slumber. The noise is familiar and reliable, but always wakes me with the same thought...I wonder how much snow we got? It’s 6 a.m., the precise time the dedicated Yellowstone National Park plow truck passes my cabin every morning in the winter. I live right on HWY 212 in Cooke City, Montana, one block from “The Plug.” The plug is the 8-mile section of HWY 212 between Cooke City and The Pilot Creek parking lot along the Clarks Fork of the Yellowstone that is not plowed in the winter. It is part of the mystique of this remote mountain town, one way in and one way out by automobile in winter via Yellowstone Park. From the east, the only way in is via skis or snowmobile from the Pilot Creek parking area. I moved to Cooke City 7 years ago, when life dealt me a curve ball and I needed a restart. I decided to pursue my passion and follow the snow to Cooke City. I knew snowfall was reliable in Cooke City, and so far I have been spot on with my assessment. We get lots and lots of snow. In the past eight seasons, the Cooke City region has had 3 near record snowfall years and every other winter has been above average snowfall.

Cooke City appears to be in the perfect spot for modern weather patterns (AKA Climate Change) and I am not complaining. A typical winter morning in Cooke starts with checking the weather stations, weather forecast, and avalanche forecast, and then tending to one of several snowrelated duties before heading out for the day. Shoveling snow is the most common, whether you are knocking down the furrow of snow left behind your vehicle from the plow truck, or clearing the wind-drifted snow from the walkway to your house, or bashing a developing ice dam from the eve of your roof, there is always work in the snow maintenance realm. If you don’t stay on top of it, it can get ugly quick. One of the unique things about Cooke City is traveling right from your front door with skis, snowmobiles, or for those who like to suffer, snowshoes. Ski-in ski-out accommodations have a whole new meaning in Cooke City. Skiing Town Hill allows you to ski to and from your front door and get a 1,000 vertical foot ski run in less than an hour, if you are looking to just stretch your legs. For the more ambitious, there is endless terrain around the compass to play.

Although Cooke City holds more winter recreation opportunities than most places in the Lower 48, many of Cooke City’s inhabitants are less than enthusiastic about its 9 months of winter. The exact number of locals always seems hard to pin down, but there are only about 70 true year-round residents in the greater Tri-City area, which includes Silver Gate, Cooke City and not to be forgotten, Colter Pass. Residents who have spent many more years in Cooke City than me, develop some curious and entertaining habits you notice if you are around on a daily basis in the winter. The owner of the legendary Hoosiers Bar and Motel, spends most of his days plowing and shoveling snow and clearing his roofs. He generously returns a friendly one-handed wave without ever slowing his snow blower when you wave his way. Wearing his signature coveralls and ear flapped beanie, he methodically moves snow around his very large main street property seemingly every single day. Unfortunately, his motel exploded from a propane leak in 2010 and was never rebuilt, but he still maintains the parking lot as if he is open for business. The Cooke City Exxon is the center of activities in the winter. It is located in the center of town and in addition to a great www.bozemanmagazine.com

March 2022

9 Months of Winter p.24 selection of frozen food and beer, has a large fleet of snowmobiles for rent or sale. My favorite part of walking past the Exxon is watching the owners’ miniature Shelties bark and regulate snowmobiles all day. Somehow they manage to stay out of harm’s way, while nipping and barking relentlessly at the snowmobiles shuttled around the property. A Cooke City Winter would not be complete without some good old fashioned snow wars. Almost every year, the locals run out of room to put snow. Often times the Park Service and Bearclaw Bob (Who has the local snow removal contract with Park County) will use loaders, along with dump trucks, to haul snow to the edge of town to make room on the roads for driving and parking. Neighbors are very territorial, bordering on hostile, about where snow ends up when you shovel, it slides off your roofs or cornices calve. It is not uncommon to have neighbors pick up snow you moved or slid from your roof and replenish your property. The park plow truck inevitably leaves a giant snowpacked berm behind vehicles, and when you redistribute the snow back in the road to dig your car out, you get reprimanded. Ahhhh, snow wars… Snowmobilers....where to start? Although Cooke City is known as the premier

snowmobile destination for big mountain riding in the lower 48, there are only about 9 square miles north of town where all that traffic occurs. The snowmobiles are condensed, powerful and loud. The folks, the bulk of whom are male, that descend on Cooke City in the winter to ride flock here mostly from Saskatchewan, the Dakotas, Minnesota and Wisconsin. Needless to say, there is a lot of testosterone and horsepower in Cooke City. Believe it or not, I have got-

ten used to the noise in the winter, just like living near the railroad, the sounds of your surroundings become normal, familiar and comforting after time. Several years ago, I witnessed an event from the comfort of my living room that is burned in my memory. I heard a snowmobile riding full throttle up Main Street from a distance. Although this is not encouraged or recommended, it does happen often, especially after the bar closes. As the the

snowmobile came past my place with the throttle pinned, the rider tried to make a 90-degree turn. This poor decision resulted in the snowmobile flipping numerous times and throwing the inebriated rider several yards in the air. I was fortunate enough to look up at the exact moment he attempted to turn and witnessed the entire event. The ejection from the sled released the rider’s avalanche airbag mid air. The rider came to a rest motionless in the middle of the road, and as I watched in amazement, a Sheriff patrol car slammed on the brakes skidding past the immobile rider who then awoke, and jumped up from flat on his back like a spooked mule deer. While the patrol car tried to regain control and turn around, the now adrenalized rider flipped his snowmobile right side up and with one pull started the machine and screeched the opposite direction through town. The rider flew through town with his airbag inflated and bouncing against his head in the turbulence and the Sheriff in hot pursuit. The rider was last spotted by the groomer, airbag still bouncing against his head, as he passed the Pilot Creek parking lot. Mortality. The mountains around Cooke City can be unforgiving. Almost every year with the exception of last year, one to two people die in avalanches and additional people die each winter due to traumatic accidents. Although last year there were no avalanche fatalities in Cooke City, two snowmobilers died due to trauma. There is a very small, but skilled and experienced

Search and Rescue team in Cooke City. I help occasionally, but am often with clients or too far away to help the SAR team when accidents happen. That being said, in my seven seasons in Cooke City, I have gotten a bit of practice with my CPR and First Responder skills and helped put enough people in body bags to give me a healthy respect for what happens when things go wrong in the backcountry. One of my most poignant memories occurred after living in Cooke City for three years. I was on a probe line with more than 70 people trying to find a 17-year old buried in an enormous avalanche. I was next to a local who was raised in Cooke City. He reminisced with me about his first probe line and dead body recovery. He was 11 years old. Although living in Cooke City in the winters can pose its challenges and hardships, I am constantly reminded of all the great reasons to live here. Whether watching new residents adjust to the nuances of life in Cooke, or witnessing the resilience of Cooke City’s venerable local population embracing the winters, it inspires me to live life to the fullest and enjoy the incredible absurdity of living in Cooke City in the winters. I feel blessed and really feel like I am living the Dream in Cooke City Montana.

Edith Freeman and the Art of Woodblock Printing Top Right: Along Cottonwood Creek, 1979 Woodcut - 20 x 30.5 Yellowstone Art Museum purchase funded by the Montana Cultural Trust Left: “Flowerbed Woodcut” Gallatin History Museum, Bozeman

arly in my work at the Gallatin History Museum, I stumbled upon a print in our basement amongst many other paper works. This one stood out to me, because I too am a printmaker. I had never seen anything quite like it; the colors were exquisite—and the texture! You must see it in person to appreciate the texture that gives one layer of ink depth from another. I knew it was special, and I knew I had to know more about it. Everyone I showed it to fell in love with it as well. The print is titled, numbered, and signed “Flowerbed: Woodcut” 15-20, E. Freeman. A Google search told me the print had been made by Edith Maxwell Freeman, who had been born on my own birthday, May 1st, 1913, near Broadview, Montana, and that she had died in December, 1922 in Billings, Montana. Her story was absolutely inspiring, especially to me as a hopeful young artist. Edith had received a Bachelor of Arts from Eastern Montana College (now MSU-Billings) in 1954, and a Master of Science in 1961. Having been a painter, she did not explore woodcut techniques until the 1960s, when she attended a class taught by Isabelle Johnson. In many ways, this followed my own trajectory. I had received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Western Oregon University, only dabbling in printmaking in my fifth year. Having been somewhat forced into it, I discovered I absolutely loved the process. Edith became enamored with woodblock printing in the last three decades of her life, showing you’re never too old to learn something new! Her favorite subjects were the landscapes in which she lived in Eastern Montana. From her backyard garden to images of the prairie, her work is instantly recognizable. Woodblock printing seems to have originated in China as far back as 868 C.E. The technique is difficult to master. First, you must think of the image in a backwards fashion, particularly if you are printing a reduction print, as Edith most often did. This requires only one continued on page 31 www.bozemanmagazine.com

March 2022

Edith Freeman p.28 woodblock, which is carved and printed, carved, and printed over and over again until the desired layers are achieved. In this way, the details are brought out from the distance to the foreground, from the vague outlines of color to the rich, small flecks of color that give the piece depth. The negative space becomes central in understanding which areas need to be carved away. Carving requires relatively simple tools; a supply of various ‘carvers,’ from wide, dished-out blades for removing large areas of wood to small, V-shaped blades to create the details. Wood is trickier than linoleum, since you must either work with or against the grain, depending on the design. The grain can make a cut unpredictably veer off course if you aren’t careful. Hence, the constant reminder from teachers of the trade to “cut away from yourself.” For Edith, this process became more difficult with age, as she struggled with arthritis in her later years. This malady did nothing to stop her, however; she found a remedy to keep her carving hands steady—tying doorknobs to her wrists! As noted by Meadowlark Gallery co-owner Marylee Moreland, who once visited Edith at her studio; “she reminded me of Julia Child—a very proper lady, but down to earth.” Edith was always known to those around her as a woman who let nothing stand in the way of her good attitude and great drive to learn new things. Inking and printing the block is another complication altogether. Edith most often used rice paper on which to print her images, each layer meticulously inked, then printed by hand using a stainless-steel spoon to press the paper against the ink. This timeconsuming process in turn makes Edith’s prints valuable. She usually only made 15 to 20 editions of each image. With each new layer of color, the old layer of the woodblock is worked upon in a reduction print, making the number of prints originally printed in a run the max of the edition. Some pieces inevitably don’t make the final edition due to inking issues or little irregularities. Today, people most often associate the idea of prints with a copy. What makes printmaking so unique is that each piece in an edition truly is finished by hand and is really an original in its own right. Most often, pieces in an edition can differ slightly, due to the pressure applied while transferring the ink. Edith’s prints, which used to go for around $40 in the 1980s, now sell for over $3,000. The original woodblocks themselves are even more valuable due to their rarity. Edith’s work is on a fairly large scale. The image at the Gallatin History Museum measures 18”x22.” When you refer back to the way in which each print was created by hand, you see the monumental task in creating multiples of each piece: hand carving each detail, inking each layer, gently transferring the image multiple times, then doing it all again. What makes Edith’s work so unique is her subject matter and personal style of portraying her landscape. There are few artists who can so accurately capture the beauty of a place while also imbuing it with the feel. Edith’s work not only looks like Eastern Montana, it feels like Eastern Montana. Her love for her home shines through; you can feel what she must have felt through her use of color, texture and the details of what she chose to portray. Maybe that is what makes all landscape artwork so unique; it’s the voice of the artist, and what they find beautiful. Edith would also make a career out of something I too would like to do: she taught others. For 30 years Edith taught in rural county schools and elementary schools throughout Eastern Montana before starting her second career as a printmaker. In 1939, Edith married rancher Charles William Freeman, 28 years her senior. They would share a Billings home until his death in 1985 at the age of 100. Today the largest collection of Edith’s work resides at the Yel30

lowstone Art Museum in Billings, Montana. Most pieces were donated by her estate with the cooperation of its executor, her brother, Floyd Maxwell. This collection boasts over 60 of her woodblock prints. My favorite piece in their collection is “The Rosy Path,” where the colorful silhouette of leaves and grasses play against each other to create a vibrant pathway leading into a wooded forest. I defy anyone not to want a walk down Edith’s path (which can be seen online in the Yellowstone Art Museum’s Permanent Collection). The Gallatin History Museum is overjoyed to have found a prized treasure in its own collection. Since its discovery, the piece has been

protected in an archival mat and frame that highlights the beauty of her print. In 2018, in celebration of Montana and the Great War, this image of Edith’s was used on a booklet handed out at a commemoration of Armistice Day at Montana State University, Bozeman. What makes this image so compelling is the play of the delicate red and orange poppies against lush green and yellow foliage. Her garden must indeed have been beautiful. How lucky are we to be able to continue to enjoy it long after the blooms have gone, long after its creator too is gone? Edith’s vision of beauty will continue to live on and inspire others to embrace the patience of the age-old art of the woodblock. K Kelly Hartman is the Curator at the Gallatin History Museum. She is also a painter and printmaker inspired by the beauty of Montana.

very year, the depths of winter shroud us in darkness and bitter cold. We hunker down and try our best to be content, but as the inevitable daydreams of warmer weather and longer days begin to creep in, seeds of restlessness sow themselves in our minds and with each new garden catalog delivered, our attempts at patience become harder to sustain. For those of us forced to spend our winter daily light allotment working in artificially illuminated buildings, the feelings of eternal darkness are amplified. For days on end, we wake up before the sunrise, bundle ourselves against the early morning cold, drive to work, sell our labor for eight hours, redon the warm layers, and motor home after sunset. It’s an emotionally defeating cycle, and with Montana’s notoriously long winters, it can be a challenge to stay optimistic. When the spring equinox, also called the vernal equinox, arrives in late March, we find that we have been mentally planning our garden beds and camping trips for weeks, and know that we still have a long way to go before we’re floating down an ice-free river and attending an outdoor concert in shorts. However, this biannual astronomical event is a herald of new beginnings, and it promises that our frigid wait will be worth it. Earth’s seasons are caused by its slight tilt and steady orbit: when the north pole leans towards the Sun, it is summer here in the northern hemisphere and winter in the southern hemisphere; when the north pole shies away from the Sun, the seasons reverse. Equinoxes occur when the Earth’s axis is pointed neither toward nor away from the Sun and the center of the Sun is in direct alignment with the Earth’s equator, resulting in a day of nearly equal amounts of light and dark for the entire planet. Taking place once in the spring and once in the fall, these events of balanced light last for only a moment in time. This year’s spring equinox will occur on March 20th at 9:33 am MST. Humans have observed and documented the Sun’s path throughout the year in a variety of ways. One of the most well-known is the prehistoric monument known as Stonehenge. Located in southern England, this mysterious circle of stones was constructed thousands of years ago and is believed to have been built as an astronomical calendar. Today, Druids and Pagans gather at Stonehenge every vernal equinox to mark the beginning of spring. Back on our side of the pond in Chaco Canyon, New Mexico, remnants of an ancient Puebloan culture still stand. Among the ruins is one of the most famous petroglyphs in the southwest — the Sun Dagger, which marks solar events on a spiral carved into rock slabs. Recognizing equinoxes and other solar events was an important survival tool for many Native American tribes. Their awareness of seasonal change helped them mark migration periods, locations of animals for hunting, and plant dormancy. In Mexico, we can visit Mayan pyramids that were built to signal the start of spring, among many other functions. The Mayans had the most advanced astronomical understanding of their time. The descent of the “feathered serpent” Kulkulkan’s shadow from his temple in Chichen Itza, Mexico was an important marker for both equinoxes and corresponded with the planting and harvesting of maize. Equinoxes signal a shift in the seasons and are celebrated across the globe. The spring equinox is a symbol for rebirth and renewal in many diverse cultures. In the United States, thoughts of spring induce images of flowers, rabbits, and colored eggs, the universal symbol of fertility. Eggs are important components in many spring celebrations. For example, in Bosnia, Cimburijada (also known as the “Festival of Scrambled Eggs”) marks this season change with thousands of people eating scrambled eggs together. There is also the ancient Chinese practice of standing eggs on end to physically represent the balance of day and night. This activity was adopted by Americans in the late 1940’s and egg-balancing ceremonies promoting world peace and international harmony are still held in New York every year. It’s no coincidence that thrift stores see an influx of donations every spring. The tradition of “spring cleaning” is symbolic as well as functional, and there are many different origins of this practice. The spring equinox signals the beginning of the Persian new year, known

as Nowruz. Rooted in Iranian tradition, this thirteen-day holiday is preceded by a “shaking of the house,” in which everything in the home is thoroughly cleaned before celebrations begin. There is also the Jewish practice of deep cleaning before Passover and the Catholic tradition of cleaning the altar before Good Friday. For practical purposes, warmer temperatures in March allow for the opening of windows after a long winter for fresh air to circulate into the home once again. There are many, many other ways to celebrate this pivotal, biannual solar event. Some are a bit weird, like the burning of worn-out socks in Maryland or participating in the world’s biggest water fight in Thailand, while others are serene and productive, like repairing broken

items to renew their usefulness, or drinking dandelion and burdock cordials for good health. Creating your own traditions could be an excellent way to incorporate seasonal changes into your life; there is no wrong way to celebrate! The next time your morning alarm goes off, peek out your window. Whatever you see, take it all in, because everything will soon change. It’s the nature of things. Remember that all of life is cyclical, even the water circulating through your coffee maker. Make notes in seed catalogs, apply for river permits, and buy your music festival passes. The spring equinox will deliver a moment of balance before plunging us back into the light and, after a long winter, we will all be ready for it.

BEGINNER HOCKEY LEAGUE BOASTS A TIGHTLY KNIT COMMUNITY

March 2022

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Christopher Dyrland-Marquis, photos Nicole Altese

he sound of clacking hockey sticks echoed through the evening’s misty air at Ressler Ice Rink as two opposing players fought for a puck amongst excited cheers. One—garbed in yellow—attempted to outmaneuver his blue-jerseyed rival: clacking and sliding his hockey stick against equally viscous blows in attempts to maintain control over his adversary. But both fought just as hard as the other, and for a few heart-stopping seconds neither held an upper hand. Suddenly, from a single moment of imbalance, the hockey puck slid underneath the yellow combatant’s skates, and flew towards his goal—swiftly cradled and maneuvered by the blurred flash of a second, previously unseen blue teammate who had snagged it in passing. Powdered ice spewed into the air from his swift skating as he dashed ahead of both teams, rocketed towards his opponent’s goal, and deftly sent the puck inside with a sharp thwack. Audience members on the edge of their seat erupted into applause at the stunning display, and reveled in the competitive atmosphere that had shattered my own preconceptions about what a Greenhorn Beginner League Hockey Game might have to offer. For most, the thought of entering into recreational sports as an adult can seem a bit bizarre. Sure, there are intramural sports for college students to participate in, but beyond opportunities for those in second-

ary education, the prospect of joining together with others in a league can seem a bit intimidating. I mean, who wouldn’t be at least a little nervous? There are certainly enough unknowns: you could have no idea who you might play against, you might not know if you would be considered good enough, or you simply may not even know where to look. While these concerns can all be perfectly valid, Bozeman is finding itself in an interesting position: quickly developing as a hotspot for numerous recreational leagues, with many beginner-friendly organizations among them. One of these—Bozeman Amateur Hockey Association’s Greenhorn Beginner Adult League—works to provide a space for anyone over 18 to learn hockey, and to help train them to compete with others. My own research into the organization led me to attend one of the league’s many scheduled skirmishes: a monday-night pickup match between the yellow-jerseyed Hackers, and their blue counterparts, the Slashers. Knowing very little about the event (I didn’t even know if it was open to the public or not), I decided to take along my dear, everpatient girlfriend, and find out! We departed for the Haynes Pavilion in the Gallatin County Fairgrounds around 8:15pm, and after meandering our way into Ressler Ice Rink, wondered at first if we had missed it: a nearly empty set of bleachers sat behind plexiglass, as coaches skated across the ice with an assortment of players—all of which enthusiasti-

cally performing various ice-skating exercises up and down the enclosure. Every now and then, a player would catch his blades against the ice and fall, but it was clear the group had been practicing, and those who slipped immediately jumped back into their exercise. Finally, it dawned on us that we had mis-read the schedule, and had been spectating a practice session! The game we decided to attend wasn’t set to play for an hour. With our embarrassing mistake swiftly dawning upon us, we made as graceful of an exit as we could, and promised ourselves to return at the proper time. One hour and several self-deprecating jokes later, the two of us returned to be greeted by a somewhat different atmosphere: seating which had been suspiciously empty before, now held excitable friends and family who had come to cheer their players on! It also appeared that everyone in the audience had somebody to root for. Before the night’s match began, Lindy Soukdavong—a fellow spectator—was gracious enough to provide me with insight into her own attendance. She explained, “My boyfriend is on the Greenhorn [Hackers] team … I think their jerseys are yellow, but they haven’t started yet. This is the big practice before, this is a whole different team … a whole different practice.” She continued by discussing whether or not she might like to see the league become more popular, replying, “Yeah, that would be cool if it’s not already!

seems like there’s a good amount of people [here] … I’ve watched hockey forever. The very first NHL game I went to was a playoff game for the Calgary Flames!” Soon, the main event had arrived, and as the Hackers and Slashers began their vigorous pregame warm-ups, many bystanders (including myself) paid a visit to the stadium’s concession stand for a full spectator experience— returning to the frigid spectating benches with warm cocoa to soothe our hands, or cold, adult beverages to raise the spirits. In the moments before the game started, it was clear that we would enjoy an open and welcoming community. On each face—audience member and player—a wide, grinning smile shone out. While the competition was taken seriously, it was apparent that everyone in attendance was thoroughly basking in the wholesome joy that stems from enjoying each others’ company. Then, in what seemed to be the blink of an eye, the teams came together, the game’s designated referee dropped the game’s puck, and the event began.

As the hockey game progressed, it was hard to believe that the teams who competed in front of us were beginners in the sport. While an occasional fall or unintended turn across the ice did occur every now and then, the passion each player brought into their performance convinced anyone watching that their competitive spirit rivaled the pros. The hockey puck flew between fellow sticks, as fast-paced plays would be cast across the rink, and each team took turns countering aggressive offenses with cunning misdirections and point-saving goalies, if it proved necessary. Each team appeared to have its own star players emerge, as several Hackers found themselves gaining traction against the blue Slashers, and vice versa. When a Hacker might win the puck possession from a face-off circle near his opponent’s goal, it would be quickly reversed by the equally passionate team, who would run it down the ice, and attempt to shoot it past the vigilant goalie. Throughout the match, several shots

from each team evaded his defense, and if you missed it there was no need to worry: you would quickly be reminded by enthusiastic chanting and the clanging of painted cowbells shaken by spirited fans! For about three-quarters of the game, it appeared to be a solid standstill—no team appeared to be outplaying the other, and many may not have even felt it necessary to tally the points, as the scoreboard displayed only the current time. With as much fun as the entire ensemble seemed to be having, the minimal display could simply have been reminding observers of the remaining time they had to enjoy their skirmish before yielding to others’ scheduled reservations. Eventually, however, tides did appear to change in the blue Slashers’ favor. The team’s competitive edge and persistence paid off, with a player driving the puck towards his opponents in the game’s final moments. He ran it towards the Hackers’ left-center field, clashed with a Hacker guarding the zone, juked him with a quick succession of slapping

movements (some of which still feel magical to recall), and shot the puck into the Hackers’ goal! Soon after, the game ended—with an apparent victory for the Slashers, though it was hard to tell, as everyone who began filing outside of the stadium boasted ear-toear grins. The family and friends of players skating off of the ice lingered to excitedly discuss the game with their loved ones, and even when I asked a yellow-jerseyed Hacker—a member of the team who had supposedly lost the match—what team he had played for, his chest swelled with pride and he jovially responded, “The Hackers!” As we departed and regaled ourselves with the immensely entertaining events that had unfolded before us that night, my girlfriend and I found ourselves reverently in awe of the Greenhorn League’s atmosphere. Everyone who played did so as someone with a genuine love of the sport, and with a desire to try their hand at a new experience. Regardless of how well they thought to have played, or how well others thought they had performed, it didn’t matter. Those who stepped out onto the ice did so to participate in an activity that drew the community together, regardless of if they happened to win one hockey game or not. With my loved one dragging a brand-new, raving hockey fan out of the door, we walked

into the cold night’s open air appreciating how much we, ourselves, might enjoy participating in community programs like the Bozeman Amateur Hockey Association: commitments that stem from an ongoing desire to improve our abilities, engage with the friends we make every day, and discover activities worth forming supportive communities over.
