Third Annual Brewfest & Wine At Museum

The third annual Brewfest and Wine event date will be Saturday, October 10 from 1 to 4 p.m. at the Daniels County Museum.

Many Montana breweries will be represented including local brewers from Busted Knuckle Brewing of Glasgow, Cross Country Brewing of Glendive.

It was first thought that

the Scobey brewery, not yet open, Pleasant Prairie Brewing would be participating in the tasting, but the law will not allow them to at this point. They do plan to provide the museum some bottles of PPB “home brew” from their experimental recipe batches, to be sold off at auction during the event.

Several Montana wineries will also be represented.

Tickets will be available at the door, at per person or per couple rates. People must be 21 to enter the Dirty Shame Saloon on the museum grounds, where the event will be held.

Entry free will include a commemorative glass.

Flaxville Applies For Grants For Water Main Replacements

The Town of Flaxville has submitted grant applications to TSEP Treasure Statement Endowment Program and DNRC (Department of Natural Resources and Conservation) to complete the replacement of their water mains, similar to what Scobey is doing, just on a much smaller scale.

They will likely also do two phases in order to leverage grant funding properly. Rankings of the grant applications won’t be known until later this fall and then the legislature will allocate funding on those that rank high enough, during their session in 2021.

Great Northern Development Corporation helped them with the grant applications. Great West Engineering put together the infrastructure plan for the submission.

They have high hopes of getting the funding however, revenues in the state are down with limited tourism and industry over this last year.

Color Fun Run/Walk; Is Sunday, Oct. 4; Local Charities Benefit

This year’s, one mile, Color Fun Run/Walk begins at 5 p.m. on Sunday, October 4 at the west side of Roseland Park in Scobey. The non-timed event will also wrap up at the park.

A new twist this year — participants will be divided into teams of less than ten. Each team will receive a clue at the starting line and at each color station concerning the race route. The slogan this year is “Giving is an art…be the artist” and the powdered paint will create a masterpiece on the t-shirt.

Logo t-shirts will not be delivered until after the actual event, so participants are asked to wear your own white or light colored t-shirt for the Run.

Some things participants may want to bring to a color run include sunglasses, a plastic bag or phone holder, a plastic bag for sneakers and flip flops to slip on, tow els to put on your car seat, bug spray, and baby wipes.

The color run is a fund raiser put on for local charities and sponsored by the Assembly of God Church in Scobey.
