READ ALL ABOUT IT

As Tom Thompson walked to the front of the crowd gathered on the grounds of the National Museum of Forest Service History on Friday afternoon (September 6, 2024), he was finding it hard to believe that the day had finally come.

Within a few minutes, he and other museum board members and partners would hoist the 12 golden shovels waiting behind him to break ground on the new National Conservation Legacy Center. As more than 200 supporters braved the afternoon heat, Thompson thanked them for the seven years of support.

Packing in the Montana back country.

The ultimate value of life depends upon awareness and the power of contemplation rather than upon mere survival - Aristotle

Whimsy

Missoula, Montana

We shouldn't be afraid to embrace whimsy, that nagging idea that life could be magical; it could be special if we were only willing to take a few risks - Donald Miller

Vision

Historic Montana fire tower

Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world - Joel A. Barker
