We had a very interesting Rotary program this week.  Some of the crew of the USS Montana visited our club as they make several visits throughout our state. They have a fascinating & important job protecting our country.

Helena Rotary Club Member, Jane Amdahl attended the International Conference in June in Calgary Canada. She shared a bit of her experience with the club and presented Club President, Mike Talia with a Rotary tie that displays all the flags from countries that have Rotary Clubs. Mike promises to wear it proudly!

SponCon (Spontaneous Construction) is a brand new event as a joint fundraiser for Helena Area Habitat for Humanity and the Rotary Club of Helena. SponCon challenges community teams to push the boundaries of creativity! Using materials from the ReStore, teams have seven hours to design and build the most innovative, functional, and visually stunning creations imaginable. This is a great team building activity for businesses, organizations, families, youth groups and more! Visit our webpage to learn more, register your team or become a sponsor!
 
Congratulations to our own Jake Heaton, manager of AlphaGraphics, who received the Helena Area Chamber of Commerce Boss of the Year Award on October 16th!
 
Here's what his team had to say about him. "Jake's contributions to the community and his willingness to support various causes are truly commendable. Within our team, he has consistently gone above and beyond, especially during challenging times. He prioritizes a healthy work-life balance and genuinely cares for his employees, fostering a supportive atmosphere that feels like family."
 
Well deserved Jake! This isn't our first Rotarian winner of Boss of the Year - Kelly Cresswell of Reach Higher Montana won the award in 2022!
 
On July 31, 2024 we dedicated the Ambrose ADA Trail on Mount Helena in memory of Rollie Graham, a former member of the Rotary Club of Helena. His daughter, grandchildren and great-grandchildren were present to help us dedicate the sign and the trail. This trail was a project of the Rotary Club of Helena in 2021 to provide an accessible trail for all on Mount Helena. The white portion in the middle of the sign is a Braille translation for our visually impaired community. We hope you can experience the trail yourself, whether walking, pushing a wheelchair or stroller, or even XC skiing in the winter!
