Join the Gallatin High School Booster Club field turf subcommittee at 6 pm on Thursday, December 4 at the GHS Library to learn about an upcoming field enhancement project across the street from Gallatin High on the Bozeman Sports Park property. There will be a short, informational talk, a Q & A period, and refreshments. Learn more about this project at Rise of the Raptors dot com.

We are excited to let you know that the City of Bozeman has recently opened on street parking on both sides of Flanders Mill Road. Please see the map below for new areas where students can park during the school day. New parking areas are indicated in yellow.

Please see below for the listing of teen programs (for ages 12-18) at the Bozeman Public Library this winter. I especially wanted to highlight a program series I'm starting called "Crafting for a Cause" where teens will craft/create projects that will be donated to local partners with the projects also counting as volunteer/community service hours.

December's project will be making no-sew blankets to donate to patients at Bozeman Health through the Bozeman Health Foundation. I'll be hosting a Teen Maker Lab on Dec. 5 from 4-5pm to start out the program, but supplies will also be available in the Teen Corner during the rest of the month to make blankets is teen's can't make the Lab meeting on Dec. 5.

January's Crafting for a Cause will be making pet toys for Heart of the Valley with supplies made available in the Teen Corner.
