Join us tomorrow from 4 pm – 6:15 pm. We’ll meet at the Washington School, then walk over to the nearby trail we worked on last year. At tomorrow’s meeting, folks from the Montana Conservation Corps will be helping us make the trail safer for people walking on it. Wear close toed shoes and clothes that can get dirty. A water bottle is also a very good idea. Tools will be provided.

Join us tomorrow from 10 am – 12 pm at The Rock. We’ll continue work on our distracted driving project.

Join us tomorrow from 4-5:30 pm at the Public Library. We’ll continue work on our geocaches. If you have already researched your cache, come prepared with your research cards. If some of the tokens you chose are objects you already own and would like to donate to the cache, bring those along as well. We’ll buy and search for the rest tomorrow.

Join us at the Rock from 10 am – 12 pm for emergency preparedness training. The fire department will teach us the basics of first aid and CPR, as well as ways that we can be better prepared to help our neighbors in the event of a natural disaster or other emergency.

Join us tomorrow from 10 am – 12 pm at The Rock. We’ll make posters and develop strategies to advertise our Open Mic night that will take place on May 26 at Leaf and Bean.

Join us tomorrow from 4:00 – 5:30 pm at the Public Library. We’ll walk to Sacajawea Park and pick up trash in honor of Earth Day.

Join us at The Rock from 1:30 – 3:30 for a pizza party and planning session. We’ll meet with Bozeman Police again to delegate tasks for filming, outline the movie’s content, and compile a list of necessary materials. We’ll all probably have a little homework to do for this so that we can be ready to film in May. If you want to be involved in filming, you must come to this meeting. Otherwise, we won’t be able to delegate a job for you.

Join us tomorrow from 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm at the public library. We’ll each choose a location for a geocache, research the history of that location, and make a list of items we’d like to include in our caches.

For those of you who are trying to plan your summer calendars, summer camp will be from July 9 – July 13 this year. We’ll be up at Homestake Pass Lodge again. Look for camp brochures and application forms in the mail along with April’s schedule. We’ll be sending those out sometime next week.

Join us tomorrow from 10 am -  12 pm at The Rock for a meeting with Lt. Johnson of the Bozeman Police Department. We’ll come up with a plan for our Distracted Driver Awareness project. Lt. Johnson is excited to work with us on this project, and brings a lot of great resources to the table through the police department. Our goal for this meeting is to walk away with a plan for the project that we can start implementing this spring.
