Growing Generosity One More Thing That Makes This Place Special

Jason Smith

e hear it all the time, right? “This is a really special place.” There’s much that makes this true: our landscapes and access to them, our people and their work ethic, our education and healthcare systems, our thriving local economy. Over the last two decades, my wife and I have had the opportunity to live – literally – almost everywhere. From our perspective, there’s one thing that sets Bozeman and the Gallatin Valley apart, again and again: a wide-spread commitment to community, with generosity to back it up. There are so many examples of mind blowing philanthropy leading to incredible impacts, with Give Big Gallatin Valley, the Trust for Public Lands’ Story Mill Park project and local giving to MSU’s What it Takes Campaign serving as just three that come immediately to mind. Each of these, in their own and very different ways, make me proud to call this place home. Another point of pride is Bozeman Health’s Caring Forward Campaign, the largest truly local multi-year fundraising effort in our community’s history. Two and a half years ago, Bozeman Health Foundation set an ambitious goal to raise at least $15 million dollars to support nearly $75 million in planned investments by Bozeman Health in expanded, high-quality healthcare throughout our region, from Bozeman to Big Sky and beyond. While our hope was to raise this significant charitable support by the end of 2019, the campaign has already crossed the $14.4 million mark, driven by generosity from every corner of the region and every imaginable type of donor. Full disclosure: I have the honor and privilege of serving alongside Bozeman Health Foundation’s dedicated leadership volunteers and staff members as their Chief Advancement Officer. This one is “up close and personal.” So, what have we learned about this remarkable place we call home through the unprecedented success of the Caring Forward Campaign? And how might the generosity we’ve seen and the wisdom we’ve gained help others and other organizations to benefit from the region’s philanthropic spirit? Three things…

TRUST IS EVERYTHING

Organizations that thrive seem typically to have built a foundation of trust with their supporters that endures. Much like the values and work ethic that defines many Montanans, that trust comes slowly over time based on listening, inclusive planning, clear commitments and then delivering on promises made. In the case of Bozeman Health, for more than a century, when our board members, leadership volunteers and staff members have committed to deliver on a big, bold plan and invited donors to join us in bringing that plan to life, we’ve delivered…every time.

connectivity and an innovative spirit has inspired donors to join us in reaching further than ever before.

CHOICE INSPIRES

Together, many of our community’s leading not-for-profit organizations have proudly raised millions of dollars in charitable support for “bricks and mortar” priorities through traditional capital campaigns. Over these past two and a half years, though, we’ve learned that offering our potential donors choices can be extremely powerful. On the heels of our own successes raising funds for the new Emergency Department and our expanded Cancer Center, we took a risk when launching Caring Forward, with four priorities at its heart: 1) enhancing critical and intensive care, 2) expanding community outreach programs, 3) enabling innovation and excellence in cancer and cardiac care and 4) growing Big Sky Medical Center. What we’ve found is that, without question, our donors have valued the ability to support the priority of their choosing, often making larger gifts than would otherwise have been the case. As we look to the future, donor-centricity will remain core to our strategy. Bozeman, the Gallatin Valley, Southwest Montana… this place we call home is remarkable in too many ways to count. While we should never take what we have and enjoy for granted, I’m optimistic that the same community spirit that drives so much philanthropy today will drive great decision-making and thoughtful progress for decades to come. My day job has me leading and serving with just one of many wonderful organizations, but my personal calling and the calling of Bozeman Health more broadly is to help raise the tide for others as well. Here’s to generosity and all its many positive outcomes. j Jason Smith is Chief Advancement Officer for Bozeman Health, leading their independent foundation, communications and community engagement programs. Prior to returning to the Gallatin Valley in 2012, he travelled the country and world with the Red Cross. He’s an inspired Bobcat who married a Bozeman girl way back in 1993. Now, he and Karen have two happy youngsters at Irving Elementary School, an ill-behaved pug and two pound kitties. Jason is also president elect of Bozeman Sunrise Rotary Club and a national advisory board member of Iqra Fund.

INDEPENDENCE AND AGILITY MATTER

For more than a century, Bozeman Health has served our region as an independent, locally governed hospital and health system with a deep commitment to meeting the needs of the vulnerable in our communities. In an era of increasingly frequent healthcare mergers and consolidations, our success in maintaining our independence has helped us remain connected to our patients and their families, nimble in adapting to meet their needs and entrepreneurial in our approach to building an even brighter future. This combination of local 8

hen she’s not on the trail with her family and dogs taking photos, Casey Norris spends her time painting. A New Zealand native, Casey has called Bozeman home since 2012, “I’ve found my place here in Montana. The landscapes and wildlife are a great source of inspiration for my painting and photography and I love the outdoor life. It doesn’t get any better than this.” From a young age she remembers sitting for hours drawing. “I had these step by step books that showed you how to draw different animals and I would draw the same animal over and over until I had it down. It’s the same with painting now, I enjoy practicing my technique and discovering what works!” In the summer of 2017 Casey spent every day either camping or backpacking with her family, exploring Montana’s back roads and trails. “There’s nothing like being out on the trail, whether it’s trail running or backpacking, it’s freedom.” She hopes that by immersing her children in the wilderness they will grow up sharing her passion for the outdoors, and for adventure, and appreciate the simple things in life that money can’t buy. When she’s not on the trail with her family and dogs taking photos, Casey spends her time painting and working as a designer for Kenyon Noble.

FOOD & DRINKS

OPEN RANGE A Uniquely Montana Experience Angie Ripple

February 2019

www.bozemanmagazine.com

he best traditions of Montana hospitality await all guests of Open Range, Downtown Bozeman’s premiere Steakhouse. With over three decades of culinary and hospitality experience, owners Jay and Mary Bentley continue to bring the highest quality food and warmest, friendliest service to every guest. I sat down with this duo recently to find out more about their history and what to expect from them in the near future. Enjoy! Angie Ripple: How was Open Range conceptualized? How did this place come about? Jay Bentley: It was kind of an evolution of the Mint, which we had before. We had a great space available, and we liked the location on Main Street, and we thought it was an opportunity to bring a new experience. In a way it’s very traditional because if you look at classic Steak Houses everywhere, which is what we really are, there are certain basics, so we try to stick to those basics, but we also try to incorporate some innovative ideas. We’re not trying to be James Beard award winners, we just want people to come in and experience the best we can do for them. There is a constant battle between pricing and quality, and we made up our minds that quality is more important, so our prices tend to be reflective of the quality. That’s kind or our philosophy, if we have to choose I would rather go with great products at higher prices than mediocre prices. If you give people the best, they are willing to experience that, but like any other restaurant, or any other business it’s always a balance. AR: What do you consider as the basics; you mentioned the basics of Steak Houses? JB: Consistency, quality. Mary Bentley joins the conversation: and definitely service. AR: Tell me a little about yourselves. What made you want to get into the restaurant industry? JB & MB: Both laughing, we don’t want to go there! MB: Well Jay you can start, because actually, Jay has been in the business for how many years?

JB: Too many, since 1982. I started in Ennis in 1982 at the Continental Divide. Then, we did The Mint (Belgrade) and that’s when Mary started to get involved. Then, in 2013 we opened Open Range. MB: We had an opportunity here and it was either cross that rubicon or not and we are very glad we did. It’s been great. The community has been very supportive, our regulars are just incredible people, but it’s hard work, it’s really hard work, but it’s good. Do you know about the dog wall? Shortly after we opened up I was driving to the restaurant and I was thinking ‘what does the community love? What can we do for the community? And I’m driving and I see someone walk their dog, and I’m driving and I see someone walk their dog, and I’m driving and I see someone walk their dog, and I go Dogs, this community loves dogs, and people love their dogs. In The Mint we had black and white photos of the regulars, and that was really cool, so we said no people, we’ll just do dogs. So we gave a shout out, said you bring in an 8 x 10 black and white, we’ll frame it and put it on

the wall. So now we have people that also request a certain booth number (laughing) because they have to have dinner by their dog! It’s great. We’ve been really lucky with our staff, also. I would say at least half our staff has been here from Day 1, so we have very little turn over, which is huge, especially in this town. AR: What makes Open Range unique in Bozeman? What do you offer that other places don’t? JB: Well, I think we are the only truly dedicated Steakhouse, and not only steaks, but chops, and other regional meat specialties. We have Bison on our menu, and it’s kind of our focus. When we can, we try to buy from Montana producers. MB: I know everyone tries to pride themselves on local, and we do too, but in Montana that can be really difficult sometimes, so a lot of times we’ll focus on regional instead. If I can’t get a certain product here, maybe I can get it in Idaho or Wyoming.

Open Range p12 That’s our big push, local as much as we can, and we can’t we go regional. JB: And that’s kind of the thrust of our whole menu, it’s regional. It’s the kind of thing that when people come here from somewhere else, they really like. MB: They feel like they get a Montana experience. A number of people come in and say, “So-and-so told us we have to try Open Range.” I think it’s because they want this Montana experience. AR: What do you want people to experience here when they step through your doors? MB: Well, I’ll tell you what I don’t want them to experience, I don’t want any pretentiousness. We are labeled Fine Dining; I don’t really like that, we are more casual than that. I want people to walk in here, and if they have a two- or three-year-old, or a six-month-old, I want them to feel comfortable. I want anyone to walk through this door and feel good.

What do you want Mr. Bentley? JB: I hate pretentious food. That’s the whole thing, I hate it. MB: With him it’s food; with me its the staff and the aesthetics and all of that. JB: We have standards, and we are fortunate enough to have a staff that realizes that, and when you do 200 dinners a night, you hope that every one of them is equally as good as the other. Once in a while something slips through the cracks and when that happens, we totally take care of it. People are entitled to a great experience. That’s why we’re not trying to be James Beard award winners, I don’t want anyone to leave hungry. We’re here in the middle of Montana; we’re not on the upper east side of New York, we don’t need to do that kind of food. AR: What do you enjoy most about being part of the Bozeman community?

JB: It’s a great town. I mean, it’s changing, but there is still a basic element of small-town affability and hospitality. I can’t imagine living anywhere else; it’s a great place. MB: I’ve been here since 1976. I quite honestly don’t mind the growth, I’m not one of those ‘Go back to California’ people; I’m just not. I think it has a lot of charm. Do we have more traffic? Yes. Do we have parking problems? Yes. It’s inevitable, and the beauty is that we’re growing and we have grown. I think the majority of the people who live here really want to be here. I think they’ve made a conscious choice to be here, and I think that that makes a great community. AR: What’s your most popular dish? MB: Right now, the Bison Tomahawk. JB: It’s a Bison Ribeye that’s been Frenched. By Frenching, they trim it down to the bone, and you just see the bone.

MB: When our servers bring one out, all heads [turn to check it out]. AR: Do you have anything coming up that you would like our readers to know about? JB: Valentine’s. MB: We are finalizing our Valentine’s Day menu, and that will be REALLY good. Jason, our GM, is working on new wine pairings as well. If you love steak, chops, and bison, every day is Valentine’s Day at Open Range. The Bentleys bring decades of experience to the table and consistently serve up delicious regional fare. If you are looking for a genuine Montana steakhouse that specializes in meat, look no further than Main Street’s Open Range. Angie is a third generation Montanan, who balances wrangling her three children and adventures with her husband while living the dream.

THE GALLATIN RANGE BOZEMAN’S

Big Back Yard

Phil Knight

ext time you look south of Bozeman to the mountains that border our beautiful valley, consider what you are seeing. Rising in a riotous mass of sharp peaks, craggy ridges and vast alpine plateaus, split by steep canyons, decorated with clear, cold tarns, draped with snow drifts, clad with vibrant evergreen forests, humming with creeks and waterfalls… it’s the Gallatin Range! Named for the Gallatin River, which was named by Lewis and Clark for Albert Gallatin, 16

February 2019

www.bozemanmagazine.com

Secretary of the Treasury under Thomas Jefferson, this magical mountain range beckons beyond Bozeman’s ever more urban borders like some Rocky Mountain Shangri-La. From the towering Hyalite Peaks near Bozeman to the Madison River Valley, the verdant and diverse Gallatin Range forms the spine of an unbroken 525,000-acre roadless wildland, unsurpassed in rugged beauty and teeming with native fish and wildlife.

Mid-elevation habitat in roadless drainages like Porcupine and Buffalo Horn creeks offers some of the best wildlife habitat anywhere in the lower 48 states. These pieces of paradise have been saved three times from developers and sheltered some of the last elk herds in the nation a hundred years ago. Sadly, the Gallatin Range is the only major mountain range in Greater Yellowstone with no designated Wilderness. The Lee Metcalf Wilderness originally included a Gallatin Range component, but political tradeoffs left only a Wilderness Study Area (WSA). The 151,000-acre Hyalite-Porcupine-Buffalo Horn WSA, set aside in 1977, remains in limbo, with Congress yet to decide its fate. The entire roadless area, over 220,000 acres outside Yellowstone, deserves Wilderness status. This should be a crown jewel of our nation’s Wilderness Preservation System. The Gallatin Range is critical habitat for grizzly bears and all wilderness-dependent species in Greater Yellowstone, including bighorn sheep, mountain goat, elk, wolverine, wolf, and cougar. Some of the last best habitat for grizzly bears is found in the canyons and meadows of this paradise, and the threatened lynx still survives in the Gallatins. The range contains essential wintering and birthing grounds for some of the nation’s largest elk herds. Twenty-three plant and animals species listed as threatened, endangered or sensitive exist here. The Gallatins are also part of an essential wildlife corridor linking the Yellowstone region with the Northern Continental Divide ecosystem and points north to the Yukon. How many towns offer quick access to such stunning high country as Bozeman does? Think of it: You can be at the Hyalite trailhead in an hour and embark on a week-long walking journey along the top of one of the wildest, most spectacular mountain ranges in the US. And, you can keep going into Yellowstone, or into the rugged reaches of the Madison Range, and beyond that into the Centennials or the Tetons… Yet such journeys are no cake walk. That is part of the allure. In a world all too paved and tamed, the Gallatin Range can be a punishing, stormy place, the trail hard to follow, the bugs fierce, the bears intimidating (even if you never see one). When my wife and I embarked on a backpacking trip along the Gallatin Crest on a sunny July first, little did we know we’d soon be falling into rushing, ice cold creeks and post-holing in still-deep, soft snow. But we’d not have missed a minute of it. The Gallatins offer friendly, peaceful experiences as well…a picnic at a trailhead, a run with your dog up Bozeman Creek, or an evening stroll on Kirk Hill. This range is many things to many people, offering world-class ice climbing, multi-pitch rock climbing, remote lake fishing, backcountry skiing and snowboarding, rustic rental cabins, horseback riding among spectacular scenery, challenging mountain biking, and some of the nation’s best big game hunting. By any measure, we are extremely lucky to live near a landscape with so much to offer. Human history goes back at least eleven thousand years in the Gallatins. Native Americans visited these mountains to hunt bighorn sheep and elk and to harvest obsidian and chert for making stone tools, leaving evidence in the form of lithic points and rock chips. The Lewis and Clark Corps of Discovery traveled just north of the Gallatin Range when Clark led a return party over Bozeman Pass in 1806. Fur trappers explored the Gallatin Range during the heyday of the mountain men. With the settlement of surrounding valleys, local ranchers trailed sheep and cattle into the high country to fatten them up on sweet mountain grass. The building of transcontinental railways led to the giveaway of hundreds of square miles of the best timber land in the Gallatins to private companies which, combined with a frenzy of logging on public forests after World War II, resulted in an overbuilt road network in much of the Gallatin Range and a distinct lack of large trees. The scars from this logging can easily be seen from Bozeman. Yet the Gallatin Range vegetation mosaic is still rich and diverse: a complex of Douglas-fir, aspen, and foothills prairie grace the lower elevations, with scattered juniper and limber pine. Higher up, aspen and Douglas fir are replaced by

lodgepole pine, Englemann spruce and subalpine fir, mixed with rich mountain meadows. Near treeline, threatened whitebark pine becomes dominant on many sites, and well-developed alpine tundra characterizes the areas above 9,500 feet. The 25,980-acre Gallatin Petrified Forest is found close to and within Yellowstone’s northwestern corner. This is the world’s most extensive fossil forest, with 30-million-year-old stumps buried by Eocene lava flows, still anchored and upright atop these wild ridges. On the west side of the range, Madison limestone outcrops provide a stunning backdrop to the blue-ribbon fishery of the Gallatin River. The Gallatin Crest collects an annual average of three hundred inches of snow. This snow pack feeds clean, cold mountain streams, lakes, wetlands, and lush vegetation. Rivulets of snowmelt, spring rains, and summer thunderstorms coalesce into the headwaters of some of our nation’s greatest rivers. West side streams such as Buffalo Horn, Porcupine and Moose Creeks swell the upper Gallatin and Madison Rivers, keeping them clean and cold to sustain world famous native fisheries. The east side streams such as Tom Miner, Rock and Big Creeks drain into the Yellowstone, another Missouri tributary and the longest free-flowing river in the contiguous United States. Although far too many roads penetrate many drainages, a network of trails leads the quiet traveler deep into serene and remote high country. The Gallatin Crest Trail, one of the finest mountaintop trails in the nation, offers a challenging route from Hyalite Canyon to the Yellowstone border. Within Yellowstone Park, excellent trails traverse the range east to west, but off-trail travel in the Gallatins is mostly prohibited except during winter (to provide secure grizzly bear habitat), meaning many peaks are only accessible when buried in snow. What are you waiting for? You can see it from your yard and from downtown. It’s your land, and much of it is as wild and remote as anything in the lower 48. I’ll look for you in the high country of the Gallatin Range. k Preferring the solitude of mountains & rivers and the company of his wife & cats to the hustle & bustle of ‘boomtown’ Phil has traveled 6 continents & been arrested 4 times.

SCOTT’S PATH IS SIMPLE AND CLEAR Make The Best Music He Can….. Share It With Others….. That Is All ChickenJam West

THE MUSIC

cott Pemberton’s sound is much like the vibe of his native Portland: freaky, fun and just the right amount of weird. The best way to categorize his music is with the moniker “Timber Rock”. Scott naturally applies his own lens/stamp to the sounds of the Pacific North West, the region he has always called home. The deep jazz, NW rock/ grunge, blues roots and the west coast funk. It’s all there, and often all in the same song. Listeners are finding this honest, original and to-the-point music refreshing and fun. The response to Scott’s music has made him an emerging force on the festival circuit, placed him at #1 in Portland’s pop charts, #4 on Bilboards “Tastmakers” chart and has generated notice from the press: “The Bruce Lee of Rock and Roll” –Tahoe Onstage “A modern day Jimi Hendrix” –Chico Enterprise “It’s not every day we get to see a real, live guitar god in action.” -Fly Magazine (Pennsylvania) “A wildly creative virtuoso.” -Jambase.com “Stand out artist at this year’s High Sierra Music Festival” –Relix Magazine. “At a festival FULL of guitarists (Safeway Water Front Blues Festival), none played like Pemberton or was as fun to watch” -The Oregonian The mastery of his guitar playing combined with the fun recklessness of his songwriting show that the rules of songwriting and playing the guitar no longer exist for him. Scott plays with the uninhibited joy and intensity of someone who recognizes that every time we make music is an honor and a gift.

SCOTT’S PATH Many master guitarists find their homes within a specific genre, perfecting the ins and outs of their chosen musical realm until their names become synonymous with the very art form. Portland’s Scott Pemberton is not your average guitarist. He’s a musical nomad. His home isn’t in one comfortable bubble, but rather spread across genres. One moment, he’s shredding through the blues. Then next, he’s living in a classic rock world, or drifting melodically through an ethereal psychedelic plane. Maybe he’s leading a dirty funk jam, or experimenting with something heavier, or sitting back on a jazz odyssey. Regardless of genre, though, Pemberton’s musical journey is marked by two unmistakeable realities: You always know when you’re hearing a Scott Pemberton song. And you’re always going to be captivated. A Portland native, Pemberton and his guitar have been inseparable since the musician was in his teens, and he quickly established himself as an integral to the city’s musical fabric, sitting in on studio sessions, becoming a fixture at jazz and rock clubs, and taking guitar teaching positions at Lewis & Clark College and Reed College at age 21. So much a part of Portland’s fabric is Pemberton that the city’s famous Voodoo Donutes gifted him a custom guitar-shaped donut for his birthday. Beyond stages both local and international, his music has found its way into various movies, television programs and advertisements (Nike, Coke, Jaguar, and NASCAR ads have been propelled by his distinctive melodies), and his funky guitar work has led to collaborations with legendary drummers such as Motown’s Mel Brown and Bernard Purdie, AKA “the world’s most recorded drummer.” He’s played prime spots at major festivals across the U.S. and Canada, hit #4 on Billboard’s Tastemakers’ charts and ranked among the top performers on Jambase, peaking at #2 during the High Sierra Music Festival, where he stormed the stage. Even more remarkable than Pemberton’s quick ascent to a superhero on the axe, though, is his second act. Most musicians are lucky to find their talent in the first place. For Pemberton, his love affair with his guitar received a rebirth following a bike accident that nearly ended his life and caused a traumatic brain injury, a life-changing event that would have grounded most artists. For Pemberton, it only fueled his musical drive. During rehabilitation, the guitarist rediscovered his gift, and emerged with a strong new vision as an artist. Exploding back into the public consciousness stronger, sharper and more dedicated than ever, Pemberton released his eclectic debut, Sugar Mama, produced by Los Lobos sax player Steve Berlin and featuring a bevy of guest performers including legendary bluesman Curtis Saldago. Amazingly, Sugar Mama manages the difficult task of capturing Pemberton’s wildly ambitious live persona, jackknifing across genres with ease, using the frontman’s intricate musicianship as a glue that holds it all together. A master showman who draws amazed stares when audiences realize he’s shredding without a guitar strap, Pemberton’s unique musical gifts and infectiously positive attitude come exploding to life, making the axe man and his band’s legendary shows on stages small and large come vibrantly to life. The music is hypnotic in its infectiousness — consistently challenging listeners while grounding it all in a familiar foundation of rock. Music is Pemberton’s domain. The stage is his home. And his door is always open. Scott’s path is simple and clear. Make the best music he can…. Share it with others…. That is all. This is a ChickenJam West production. Doors open at at 8pm. Music begins at at 9pm. The show is at the Filling Station on N. Rouse Ave and is 21+ and General Admission. Tickets in advance $9. At the door $12.

cclaimed alt-folk quartet from Boston, Darlingside, will perform at The Rialto Theatre in Bozeman on March 12th in support of their celebrated album Extralife (More Doug Records/Thirty Tigers). Lyrically and musically, Darlingside moves forward on their latest effort, as they create an ambient, dreamlike atmosphere with their seamless vocals and masterful instrumentation. It’s over now / The flag is sunk / The world has flattened out, are the first words of Extralife, the new album Darlingside. While the band’s critically acclaimed 2015 release Birds Say was steeped in nostalgia and the conviction of youth, Extralife grapples with dystopian realities and uncertain futures. Whether ambling down a sidewalk during the apocalypse or getting stuck in a video game for eternity, the band asks, sometimes cynically, sometimes playfully: what comes next? Their erstwhile innocence is now bloodshot for the better. Hope arrives in the form of Darlingside’s signature superpower harmonies, drawing frequent comparisons to late-60’s era groups like Crosby, Stills & Nash; Simon & Garfunkel; and The Byrds. And yet, their penchant for science fiction and speculative futurism counteracts any urge to pigeonhole their aesthetic as “retro”. The four close friends construct every piece of their music collaboratively, pooling musical and lyrical ideas so that each song bears the imprint of four different writing voices. NPR Music dubs the result “exquisitely-arranged, literary-minded, baroque folk-pop”, and calls Extralife “perfectly crafted”. Darlingside perform all of their music around a single vocal microphone, inviting audiences into a lush, intimate world where four voices are truly one. Their 2016 performance at the Cambridge Folk Festival “earned an ecstatic reception and turned them into instant stars”, according to The Daily Telegraph. b

SUN SIGN HOROSCOPE FEBRUARY 2019 Aries: Your energy levels are still high throughout the first half of the month. However, beware a potential energy crash on the 14th. The later part of the month you will be feeling stuck with so much emphasis on earth and water elements. Stay the course.

Libra: The month of lovers is here and has you questioning just what the relationships in your life at this time mean to you. Your emotional house cleaning is timely and necessary. Professionally, you may need to take a leadership role.

Taurus: Your head is back out of the clouds and you begin to feel more grounded again, especially when it comes to relationships. What you are doing and why you are doing it is given consideration; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good time to check in with yourself and make adjustments.

Scorpio: True to form, you spend much time this month engaging in some deep and much needed soul searching. Just make sure that you make time for the ones you love to still be a part of your world. Stay balanced!

Gemini: You are finally able to get yourself off that emotional rollercoaster and back into true forward momentum. You imagination is working overtime and creative energies are flowing again. You probably still feel out of sync, that just gives you thinking time.

Sagittarius: You are in high demand! Your upbeat attitude and fun-loving nature have you shining like a beacon for others to follow. The only problem is that you may just be too much in demand and have difficulty finding down time.

Cancer: You will be working on some very deep levels, so it is okay to be gentle with yourself. It is okay to step back, take a break, and keep your head down. Give yourself time to process everything that has been going on for the last couple of months.

Capricorn: You have that warm and fuzzy feeling towards the entire world because you are feelings so good about being able to follow your heart. You may have that warm and fuzzy feeling about folks; spend time with them.

Leo: Love and romance may be problematic for you as other arenas will hold sway. You will be challenged to look at the way you are thinking about and dealing in the career, success, and financial sectors. It is okay to conserve your energy.

Aquarius: Beware allowing your fear and insecurity coupled with a need to reassure yourself to distance you from the very people you need in your life now. Remember that it is not all about you, others rely on you, too.

Virgo: Expect some miscommunications and misunderstandings this month. It is not just you, rather, everyone feels like they have entered into the unheard zone now. Take the time to properly prepare for a difficult discussion about romance.

Pisces: Your friends and family may not understand the new, more assertive you. It is quite a change from the old you who would go out of their way to accommodate just about anyone. Boundaries can be set from a place of strength.

Open Door Theatre

“COMMUNITY THEATER AT ITS BEST” Kevin Brustuen

everal years ago Mary Orr left Topeka, Kansas, and moved to Bozeman. She left behind 20 years of work in the Topeka theater community. Acting and helping produce live theater was her passion. Arriving in Bozeman on a cold winter day, she looked around and wondered where she could pick up that part of her life again. Orr arrived at just the right time: Open Door Theatre company had just been founded only weeks before she moved to town, and the founders were

February 2019

www.bozemanmagazine.com

actively looking for experienced people to help produce their first show entitled Play On! Founded in 2014 by a group of volunteers, Open Door was dedicated to the idea that live theater is an important art form that enhances community life, and that every interested member of the community should have a chance to participate. In its first three seasons, Open Door has produced eight productions, including Play On!, Brighton Beach Memoirs, Exit the Body, 12 Angry

Men, Christmas Memory, Helium, Over the River and Through the Woods, Evening of One Acts, All I Really Needed to Know I Learned in Kindergarten, Boys Next Door, and The Importance of Being Earnest. Volunteer community members, including Mary Orr, directed, produced, and acted in all the roles of each of these productions, fulfilling Open Door’s mission to produce all-inclusive community theater. The goal and desire of Open Door is to

provide entry-level theatrical opportunities to community members. Feeling that acting is important, the founders have made every effort to include anyone who wishes to try their hand at acting. This harkens back to the earliest days of Montana’s history, when gold miners, hungry for entertainment, would get together and produce their own plays for their fellow miners. Open Door is producing seven performances of their next play, The Unexpected Guest, a mystery by Agatha Christie. Opening on March 15th at Kaleidoscope Theatre, The Unexpected Guest continues on March 16, 17, 21, 22, 23, and closes on the 24th of March. This play is directed by Peggy Jensen. Agatha Christie plays are very popular across the world. Christie’s play The Mousetrap is the world’s longest running play; it opened on London’s West End in 1952 (the same year Queen Elizabeth was crowned) and has never stopped, even up to the current day. Many other plays exist which have been adapted from Agatha Christie novels, including The Unexpected Guest. It is intriguing to consider how well the genre of “mystery” translates to the theater; audiences quickly become involved in the who-done-it allure of this style of play. Open Door’s emphasis on the inclusivity of theater parallels the nearly universal appeal of readers and audience members who try to walk along with the detective, solving the mystery and bringing about their own kind of justice. Even the formulaic aspect of Agatha Christie’s mysteries do not deter enthusiastic audiences from attending. In fact, the formula for a Christie mystery, like the formula for great community theater, is bound to please. Open Door Theatre is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization. For tickets and more information for Open Door’s upcoming production of Agatha Christie’s The Unexpected Guest, or simply to get more information about Open Door, please see Open Door’s website at www.opendoorbozeman.org b Kevin Brustuen lives in Bozeman and can be contacted at kbrustuen@hotmail.com.

PIZZA TOMATO SOUP AND PEANUT BUTTER PIE Rachael Phillips

Popular Bozeman “Hangout” Restaurants of the 20th Century 28

February 2019

www.bozemanmagazine.com

rom sit-down restaurants to soda fountains, Bozeman has been home to a great variety of tasty hangouts over the past one hundred years. Nothing compares to greasy, fingerlicking comfort food, sweet treats, and servers who know your name and your “usual.” While it is impossible to mention every beloved diner, here are a few of Bozeman’s popular downtown establishments from the previous century.

AUDREY’S PIZZA OVEN

In 1960 Audrey Anderson moved to Bozeman and purchased the only locally owned pizza place. Over the next thirty years, Audrey’s Pizza Oven employed scores of young people and provided a venue for hundreds of first dates. Audrey, Bozeman’s favorite red-headed restaurant owner, grew up in an orphanage in Twin Bridges, Montana. She worked as a telephone operator before marrying her first husband, who died after an accident on their honeymoon. Audrey’s tough love management style made her a substitute parent for many kids. Loyalty to Audrey pried sleepy employees from their beds on freezing winter nights when customers needed a pizza delivered. She still tossed pizza dough in the air at age 88, but Audrey’s Pizza Oven finally closed in 1990. In 2010, however, the restaurant reopened, reviving Audrey’s original recipes and putting her pizza boards to use once again.

WOOLWORTH’S

F. W. Woolworth & Company was a “five-and-dime” store chain that originated in New York in the late 1870s. The Bozeman Woolworth’s, at 26 East Main, was a variety store with a popular lunch counter that served sandwiches and hamburgers to downtown employees and folks running errands nearby. The counter also had a daily lunch special and a full soda fountain, which attracted a loyal regular crowd. A Woolworth’s employee that worked the lunch counter as a teenager in the early 1970s remembers one repeat customer in particular. Audrey Anderson from Audrey’s Pizza Oven frequently took her noon-time break at Woolworth’s, where she always ordered a fish patty with a side of cottage cheese. Audrey’s lunch orders were typically very predictable, but occasionally she broke from tradition and ordered another item on the menu. Woolworth’s was also famous for their amazing peanut butter pie, so every now and then Audrey would splurge and indulge in a slice of the decadent dessert.

SNAPPY SERVICE

Another well-patronized diner, the Snappy Service Café, was located on the southeast corner of Main Street and Bozeman Avenue (a spot currently occupied by the First Security Bank building). In the 1950 Bozeman Polk City Directory, the Snappy Service advertised lunch fare and more: “Steaks and Chops, Sandwiches, Soft Drinks, Candy, Cigarettes, Etc.” This little building had a large sign out front that advertised hamburgers, and, as its name implies, prided itself on providing speedy meals.

THE BURGER INN/ MANNY’S

Starving college students fell in love with Manny Voulkos, owner of the Burger Inn diner. Inability to pay for one’s meal was never an issue with Manny, who allowed diners to work off their tab, if need be. “Manny’s,” as the Burger Inn was affectionately called, boasted greasy comfort food, an active juke box, and inexpensive prices. In a 1995 article in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle titled “Memories of Manny: Big-hearted Diner Owner Dies at 70,” community members reflected on their experiences with Manny and his restaurant. According to one interviewee “‘He wasn’t known for his culinary skills or special dishes,’ and ‘he may have actually invented cholesterol.’” “Voulkos ‘had a philosophy that if you smiled first thing in the morning you got over it for the rest of the day.’” Open late and ever popular with Bozeman’s college crowd, Manny’s was located at the corner of 7th and Main and closed in 1981.

4B’S

Bozeman’s 4B’s restaurant opened in 1965, at the corner of 5th and Main. A Montana-born establishment, 4B’s family restaurants began in Missoula in the late 1940s. The Hainline family—Bill, Barbara (Buddy), Bill Jr. and Barbara (hence the name)— opened the first restaurant in Missoula, where they followed a business plan based on quality food, a clean restaurant, and friendly hospitality. Bozeman’s 4B’s was well-known for being open 24 hours a day, which made it a popular night-time stop for folks downtown. 4B’s famous tomato soup was a great hit with diners, but the Bozeman restaurant closed its doors in 2003 after nearly forty years on Main Street.

Soda fountains were certainly among the most popular hangout destinations for generations of Bozeman youth. Besides providing quick meals and tasty treats at reasonable prices, these popular establishments were conveniently situated in the heart of downtown, easily accessible by foot from schools, theaters, and residential neighborhoods. Many soda fountains and lunch counters were traditionally combined with a drug store or pharmacy, which provided a convenient source for some popular soda fountain drink ingredients. One early fountain drink, the phosphate soda, combined fruit flavorings and soda water with a touch of phosphoric acid. This created a sweet and tangy treat similar to today’s soft drinks.

ROECHER DRUG

Roecher Drug, an early Bozeman combination drug store and soda fountain, was in the same building at 118 East Main Street for over sixty years. The Roecher Drug soda fountain was a popular gathering place and employer for area youth. Longtime Bozeman resident Wiley Davis worked at Roecher’s soda fountain during the business’s early years. In an oral history recorded in 1975 he related: “I went to work for Roecher’s Drug Store and that was my first job. They had a soda fountain in there and I was a soda squirt. We chucked out a lot of soda water I’ll tell you. I worked there a number of years and enjoyed it very much. If there was a milkshake, we had to shake it—we didn’t have a machine to shake it for us. And we made our own ice cream and we had a little place out back and that’s where we made our ice cream. And it’s a lot different than

After the Apocalypse

EARTH IMAGINATION AND

REBIRTH IN BOZEMAN

Kris Drummond

aybe you’ve noticed that we’re in deep shit. Perhaps the increasingly frequent climate reports have brought you to a moment of pause and a sober consideration of the global situation. If you’ve been paying attention, you’ll know that our species has twelve years to cut carbon emissions by 45% to avoid unprecedented catastrophe. You may have also seen the recent article which revealed oceans are warming a stunning 40% faster than climate projections anticipated. As numbers and graphs continue bludgeoning us with bad omens from peer-reviewed pulpits, we are required to tie ever-complexifying knots of cognitive dissonance to carry on with the frantic justification of destructive “progress” that goes by the name “Normal.” I don’t blame anyone for numbing out and turning away from the devastation, the ecocide, the distorted econo-phrenia we’re facing - numbing out is my preferred defense mechanism as well. On a good day I can convince myself it’s probably all overblown and happily make my way to a coffee shop to surf around YouTube. However, I think it’s time we call it like it is: We’re standing by, actively participating in, and unconsciously complicit in a species-wide motion toward, at the very least, unprecedented humanitarian crisis and mass extinction. Take that in. Can you, for just a moment, allow yourself to feel what you already feel? Deep down in there, you know it’s true. Our current way of life is destroying everything beautiful in the name of quarterly earnings and abstract economic growth.That’s the way it is. If this reality slips through the cracks of the well-constructed defenses we all erect to cope with our spectacle-drunk society...right there, in the vertiginous center of the denial...is an adrenaline-rich recognition that we’re living smack in the middle of the apocalypse. In the original sense of the word, “to uncover or unveil,” we’re being forced into a confrontation with the depravity and inhumanity of the post-enlightenment promise. No longer unfolding on the margins of the world’s greatest monolith, the apocalypse is gazing at us, and into us, from the distraction devices that dictate our lives and paint us the picture of reality we prefer to see. In this culture of collapse, nuance and critical

“The apocalypse that kills the soul of the world is not at the end of time, not coming, but apocalypse now; and Newton and Locke, Descartes and Kant are its Horsemen. The fantasies of the literal end of the world announce, however, the end of this literalist world, the dead, objective world.” - James Hillman

thinking have become an overpriced luxury for our depleted attention spans and so convenience wins the day. Climate change is an interruption that can be mitigated by flipping the channel or clicking unsubscribe. One narrative offering solutions, the popular one, says it’s a numbers game. If we can just slow our roll, invest in solar, buy green, bike to work, and go vegan, we might make it. In this context, “making it” means continuing business as usual, perched atop a self-proclaimed throne of biological supremacy as objective programmers, efficiently shuffling around earthbound ingredients to create ever-complexifying money games to lose ourselves in. From this story, the reason to tread more lightly on the planet is to go on living as if we’re the only thing that matters. If that sounds (as I hope it does) like a bad idea, fear not (well definitely be a little afraid), we’ve got another option. The option I speak of, while simple, is the more challenging path. This option starts as a lonely one; it’s a path of deconstructing material assumptions that have been largely unquestioned since the scientific revolution. It’s to go the opposite direction of almost everyone around you. It’s the path of spiritual self-inquiry that not-coincidentally arose around the time humans began proclaiming themselves as something other than earth. This second option is a psychological adventure and a spiritual awakening. It’s the mandatory Hero’s Journey of our time if we’re to last on this planet. It’s learning how to remember that we’re not separate from Earth, life, or anything, other than in our own numbed imaginations. According to archetypal psychotherapist and long-time Bozeman resident Timothy Tate, “our personal, internal, primal schism is to believe we are separate from Gaia. This estranged state is the source of our discontent and our suffering. The ascendancy of our thinking function and its dominance in both our repetitive self-criticism and obsessive thinking partnering with the worship of unleashed rationality as a modern god alienates us from Gaia’s images, like our rivers, meadows, and mountains.” In a talk titled “Zoogaia,” given at Bozeman Public Library in October of 2017 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-yy6gqLsKbI&t=2015s), Tim made his plea for a return to the earthly imagination that characterized most of human history: “Some sort of dissociative split starts to happen when you no longer realize that you’re not ON the planet Earth, you ARE Gaia’s expression. It’s not like, ‘that’s a fun metaphor. That’s cute, that’s enchanting, that’s romantic.’ That’s not where I’m going with this...I’m not talking about voyeurism, about saying how wonderful the planet is. I’m suggesting that until we remember we ARE it, we will continue trying to save the planet while losing ourselves.” The destruction, the imbalance, the environmental disregard, the bigotry and ignorance and injustice that are so evident in the world are a result of the vast distance most of us live from our own earthed belonging. Somewhere in the rush to rocket ships and skyscrapers and perfected objectivity, we turned everything into an object, including ourselves and especially other people. Inoculated against the enchantment that humans once regarded as the unspeakable essence of life, we live as hungry ghosts, floating along the barren surface of a rich subterranean reserve of imaginal meaning. As Tate claims, “the degree to which you think you’re separate from Gaia is the degree to which you will neurotically suffer.” Based on today’s headlines, we must be pretty damn separate from Gaia. So what is it that we are being called to? How do neurosis, imagination, and objectivity relate to the planetary movement toward an increasingly inhospitable home? How alarmed should we be, and what can we do? According to Tate, it all comes down to one move. “Gaia’s fine. She’s been fine before we came, she’ll be fine after we leave. But the question is, in order to access the relationship to Gaia that I’m here to ask you, to beg you, to sing about, to realize, is that of being in balance in your own psyche. There is no other move in my book.” This shift we’re sensing, the drama and tension increasingly crowding our quiet moments, the tamped-down recognition that things are getting crazy, is not the apocalypse with a big A. It’s not some final planetary doomsday - our species will be eliminated long before that happens (although we’re doing a good job of killing a good deal of life in the meantime). Rather, the apocalypse we’re currently undergoing is a small-a apocalypse. It’s the collapse of our insulated, illusory distance from life. It’s the end of imposing rational order upon

an order so grand our minds mistake it for chaos. This small apocalypse is our collective rock bottom and luckily for us, it’s happening while we still have a cosmic rehab facility to call home. For that to matter, though, we have to start remembering. And that’s no easy task. “To remember who we are in relationship to each other and the planet is the hardest memory to keep alive because of the distractions of this world and specifically the way you think repetitively about the same things....the reality of it is, the harmony and balance of being with this world and being in relationship to Gaia ourselves, is the task of our imagination. You can’t think your way through this.” We can’t think our way through this. My mind lurches at those words. For all the times someone has told me to “stop thinking so much,” it’s a difficult addiction to break. What Tate (among a growing chorus of voices) seems to be saying is that we have to begin. We have to begin the painful work of disentangling ourselves from the stories of our society, from the stubborn delusion that industrial cannibalism is somehow a worthy pursuit. I’ll end this article with the words of Martin Prechtel and the hope that we can find our way to becoming the type of humans he describes. “The fact that commercial culture always panders to the lowest common denominator of awareness and taste should not stop us in our personal revolution to become real human beings. If there are enough of such humans, then collectively, real cultures worth living in, cultures that don’t depend on scaredness, scarcity, and sarcasm, could actually begin to cultivate themselves into motion. No longer needing someone else’s rails, we could get off the siding, the plastic could disappear, the butterflies could be released, the river could light up.” d Kris Drummond is a Bozeman based writer, photographer and web designer.

Because she believes their stories already exist, Jackson does not write for the Icelandic glaciers she studies; instead, she translates their age-old scientific histories into a powerful narrative of ice, climate, and people. Published this January, Dr. M Jackson’s The Secret Lives of Glaciers intertwines narratives of science, history, and culture in a unique story of climate change and the people it does, and will continue to, affect. The nonfiction book is based on Jackson’s Ph.D. dissertation research she completed at the University of Oregon The Secret Lives of Glaciers, through eight specific chapters, explores Jackson’s personal experiences in and near the Icelandic town of Höfn and its surrounding glaciers, delving into the science behind studying these glaciers. This book reflects themes similar to books already published in the genre of sustainability yet emerges as distinctive for its specific focus on individual narratives combining in a new, more hopeful take on future environmental activism. In 292 pages, Jackson details her own time living in

Iceland and her interactions with various members of the community. She interviews native Icelanders, uncovering their complex, personal positions toward glaciers, as many cherish the beauty and cultural importance of glaciers yet remain fearful of their natural power to damage and destroy. Jackson relates this complex position toward glaciers to larger ideas of climate change, complicating how we as humans understand our place on the planet and its precarious future. To her, documenting climate change is more than just another story of melting ice; it is a story of transformation of the planet and ourselves--one in which we must change our beliefs to make room for a future of continued ice. As glaciers have naturally transformed the landscape and climate change continues this transformation, it then becomes a necessity to transform ourselves and our own understandings of our role as humans. To quote Jackson from The Secret Lives of Glaciers, “Perhaps thinking about a glacier’s aliveness is to think about living, about what living means, about how we respond to the livingness of the world around us. In many ways, thinking about glaciers is also thinking about us… By perceiving glaciers both as sentient and as living things to care about, such relations do not remain one-directional. People may care

about a glacier, and the glacier may care about them.” (174, 179-80). Just as we as humans live on this planet, so do glaciers. Jackson believes in the power of glaciers to whisper their stories to us and in our ability to listen to these stories and respond to them. A glaciologist, geologist, writer, National Geographic Explorer, TED Fellow, and current University of Montana Writer in Residence, Dr. M. Jackson has spent years conducting research in Iceland and the arctic. She has received three U.S. Fulbright grants and a U.S. Fulbright Ambassadorship and is presently an Arctic Expert for the National Geographic Society. This book is Jackson’s second; she previously published While Glaciers Slept: Being Human in a Time of Climate Change in 2015, a compelling narrative connecting familial and global change. Published by Green Writers Press in Brattleboro, Vermont, the book can be purchased wherever books are sold. Green Writers Press seeks to publish narratives promoting sustainability and environmental justice and give voice to messages of hope and renewal for our planet. c Rosa Canales is an editorial intern for Green Writers Press and a student at Denison University in Ohio.

THE BUNGALOW

One of the community’s longest-lasting soda fountains, The Bungalow, closed its doors in 1994, but still lives on in the fond memories of many locals. The wildly popular soda fountain and lunch counter opened in 1910 as a confectionery and ice cream parlor. It didn’t become a drug store until the early 1950s, but throughout its eighty-year history, the lunch counter was known for its small-town atmosphere and comfort food. Patrons enjoyed everything from burgers and sandwiches to sundaes, phosphates, and malts. Centrally located at 14 West Main Street, The Bungalow was the perfect post-movie destination spot for folks exiting the Ellen and Rialto theaters. Because of its proximity to the old Gallatin County High School (3rd and Main), the Bungalow was also a popular after-school gathering place for a date with friends. In later years, children slurped milkshakes from their favorite perches atop beloved pink-and-white spinning barstools, and lunch patrons grabbed a quick bite while they chatted with the servers behind the counter. The Bungalow Drug always felt like home. Like the Bungalow, each of these diners and soda fountains felt like an extension of home to the people who frequented them. Laid-back and friendly, they were more than mere restaurants—they were the places where so many memories were made. Now, time for some peanut butter pie! p Rachel Phillips is the Research Coordinator at the Gallatin History Museum in Bozeman.

A PROTECTORâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S HEART

Florence Doyle

February 2019

www.bozemanmagazine.com

inne baape itchik (It’s a good day.) Good Afternoon! My name is Baachiime iiwachelesh. My English name is Florence Doyle. I’m an enrolled member of the Crow Tribe and a freshman at Bozeman High School. I’d like to welcome you to my homeland, shared by Montana’s 13 sovereign tribal nations. As this continent’s original people, Native Americans have been the surveyors of change for more than 12,500 years. For 12,500 years we have fed, clothed, and educated immigrants for survival and success. We have preserved respect for families and children in our cultural foundations. We resonate with the trauma inflicted on families when bonds between parents and children are forcibly broken. We use our voices and our values to say this is wrong because our Creator blessed us with a Protector’s heart. For 12,500 years we have stewarded the land we share. What you have come to love as your public lands today, Native people stewarded for centuries. Even with original populations that rivaled the masses in Europe, we squandered neither our water, nor our lands. No other group has put their lives on the line more bravely for a patch of dirt or a puddle of water to remain unmolested, so that we can all share in the wellness it offers. And don’t think it happened just once at Standing Rock. Truly, it has happened over and over and over, with picks and shovels; guns, germs, and steel; paper and pen. We keep standing up for our lands, the ones we share with you, because we have a Protector’s heart. For 12,500 years we have generated and maintained democracy. We believe in the sovereignty of people and the natural world and we built these foundational beliefs into social patterns that would one day secure the rights we have today in the United States Constitution. Our belief in sovereignty compels us to respect human dignity and agency. Dictatorships were not endorsed in our past, nor are they today. We maintain and assert that the Creator made each creation worthy in its own right, because we were given a Protector’s heart. For 12,500 years Native American women have been investing in a legacy of courage, compassion, and competence. Today I want to encourage all of us young ladies. There’s a lot of depression and discouragement out there. A million times a day, we feel like we don’t measure up, but there is one sure way to rise up against that lie - we do our best with what’s in front of us, proud of who we were created to be. Marita Growing Thunder, from Polson, MT has sewn more than 170 ribbon skirts, each in honor of an American Indian woman who is missing or murdered. She organized the annual Save our Sisters 80-mile walk to bring awareness to the fact that for every 1 woman murdered in this nation, 10 Native American women lie dead. Something is very wrong when one woman is lost. Something is deeply wrong when there are 10. How do we rise up against wrongs that are so wrong? We do our best with

what we have been given. Marita carries a sign for all of us. It shouts, “I belong here.” After 30 attempted suicides among friends in one summer, Jasilyn Charger dedicated herself to launching the One Mind Youth Movement. Working to address the crisis of trauma Native youth have inherited, they believed they would also inherit an Environmental crisis, so they directed their action at the Dakota Access Pipeline threatening their homes. What began as an action to protect friends from suicide, turned into a national movement to protect land and water for everyone. Many of us are familiar with the NoDAPL movement, but few realize it was launched by a small group of grieving teens. The One Mind Youth Movement established the first prayer camp just off the pipeline access route that would soon become the Sacred Stone camp at Standing Rock, the global symbol of unity and nonviolent protest against big wrongs. Alyssa Gets Down had friends who couldn’t afford dresses for prom, so she lent out the two extra she had. It wasn’t enough to meet the need and she wouldn’t settle for the thought that life is tough and some girls just don’t get to go. She put out a call and organized the donations of those who responded. An event that was only for some girls became a night of beauty for every girl. These ladies show us that great things can start small - one skirt, one mile, one prayer, one dress. That’s something each of us can do. Even if what we do doesn’t turn into a world-wide movement, we’ve had the opportunity to practice compassion and courage with competence - the virtues of strong Native women that grow the heart of a protector. Being a Protector means stepping up and taking care of our relationships: with the environment; between men, women, and children; with our families and friends; with our neighbors and our communities; with humanity. Today I want to encourage all the young women here, including myself, let’s be on the lookout. Let’s guard our minds and ignite our ambition. Let’s be careful we don’t end up just watching videos about what other young women warriors do. Let’s take up our Protector’s hearts and become the girls other people make videos, and podcasts, and social media posts about. Let’s make our own DIYs with real solutions to real problems. Most importantly, let’s find what matters in our world and protect it. Aho. Florence Doyle is a 14-year-old freshman at Bozeman High School. She is a member of the Crow (Apsaalooké) tribe. Florence began public speaking in the 6th grade taking first place in the Gallatin county declamation contest two years in a row for her essays on philanthropy and the Social Security Act. Her passions right now are languages and theatre. She volunteers as a tutor for ESL students and loves theater, ranging from classical works like Shakespeare to more contemporary musical theater.

YEAR END MARKET REPORT 2018

Bozeman Real Estate Tim Ford – Real Estate Broker

n 2018, 1,018 single family homes sold in the areas both inside and outside of Bozeman’s city limits at a median sold price of $456,375. This is compared to 1000 homes sold in 2017 at a median sold price of $409,450, an 11.4% increase in median sold price. Restricting the data to homes sold just inside Bozeman city limits, 609 homes sold this year at a median sold price of $427,500, compared to 565 homes sold in 2017 at a median sold price of $381,500, a 12% increase. The price of buildable dirt in Bozeman has also been on the rise. Subdivision lots in Bozeman have gone up dramatically in price over the past 24 months. In 2016, the median sold price for a lot in Bozeman was $76,000. That number rose to $84,900 in 2017, and then jumped to $124,900 in 2018. This equates to a 47% increase from last year and a 64% increase from 2016. The number of homes listed for sale was up slightly this year. 1,227 single family homes were listed for sale in the greater Bozeman area in 2018, versus 1,180 homes listed last year and 1,298 in 2016. The homes listed to homes sold ratio has remained relatively similar, with 83% sold this year, 85% last year, and 83% in 2016. The month’s supply of homes has also remained steady for the last 2 years at approximately 2.9 months for 2018 and 2017, compared to 3.2 months in 2016. This is the number of months it would take to sell the current homes on the market. Some often consider a “healthy” or “normal” market to have somewhere between 4 and 5 month’s supply. A higher number represents a buyer’s market while a lower number represents a seller’s market. Looking at the condo and townhouse market, the number of sales has remained fairly constant over the past 3 years while prices have been on the rise. 516 condos & townhouses sold this year at a median sold price of $296,250, compared to 509 units last year at a median sold price of $260,000, a 14% increase in pricing. Looking back to 2016, 511 units sold in the areas in and around Bozeman at a median sold price of $235,000. Interest rates continue to change. Most experts predicted they would continue to rise in 2019, but as of the date of writing, they’ve actually come down to a 9-month low, hovering around 4.5%. 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. f Tim Ford is a Realtor® with Bozeman Brokers Real Estate in Bozeman Montana.
