Today's riddle: What is the difference between black eyed peas and chick peas? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Gallatin Co. to review proposed Riverbend Glamping Gateway floodplain changes (nbcmontana.com) — Gallatin County commissioners will hold a Sept. 22 public hearing in Bozeman on proposed floodplain changes for the long-debated Riverbend Glamping Getaway near Gallatin Gateway. The updated plan removes all accommodations from the regulated flood hazard area and revises utilities, roads, and stormwater features. Residents can attend at the courthouse or submit written comments to the Floodplain Administrator.
2. Chick-fil-A off 19th Avenue in Bozeman is under construction, set to open in early 2027 (kbzk.com) — A new Chick-fil-A is officially under construction off 19th Avenue in Bozeman, with the restaurant expected to open in early 2027. City officials have approved permits and foundation work is underway on the former rest-area site, part of the larger Bridger Point development that could eventually include a 180-room hotel.
3. Bozeman photographer pitches nonprofit business plan (bozemandailychronicle.com) — With Bozeman's building boom creating lots of bare walls, local photographer and retired financial advisor Michael Wooters is pitching a nonprofit-run print business that would showcase photographers' work while employing people who need job opportunities. He's seeking a Bozeman-area nonprofit willing to run the venture, which he believes could strengthen local charitable services and arts visibility.
4. 'A River Runs Through It' — but for this opera, it's the Gallatin (kbzk.com) — An opera adaptation of "A River Runs Through It" opens this Friday at Bozeman's Ellen Theatre, bringing a classic Montana story to the local stage. Performers trained on the Gallatin River to authentically portray fly fishing, with help from a fishing double from the original film. Expect a choreographed take on casting rather than real water onstage.
5. Local Encore Electric employees help maintain Bozeman trails (nbcmontana.com) — Encore Electric employees and their families recently joined the Gallatin Valley Land Trust to clean up trails at Triple Tree Park, helping keep Bozeman's popular open spaces in good shape. Volunteers focused on preserving local trail access while the company also donated $2,000 to support GVLT's ongoing conservation and trail-building projects.
