Colt Anderson’s “Dream Big Montana Experience” skills camp set for June 28th
When it comes to underdog stories, even Rocky Balboa's doesn't have much on Colt Anderson's, save for Balboa's story, while inspirational, is completely made-up. Colt Anderson's story took him from a winless high school football team, through the University of Montana system to the NFL where he found himself in the Captain's Circle for the Philadelphia Eagles after playing for the Buffalo Bills, Indianapolis Colts and Minnesota Vikings. Colt had his share of doubters and distractors along the way with always someone saying, "he's too small" or "he's not fast enough". Things of that sort. Colt's answer? Well, his resume speaks for itself.

Butte’s Miners Union Day set for June 16 at World Museum of Mining; Vendors/Civic Groups wanted.
To say that labor and workers' rights were issues in the early days of Butte would be an understatement. Although a respectable percentage of the world's wealth has been taken from underneath our city by Copper Kings, companies and corporations, the Mining City has never really been about the big guys. Butte is a miner's town. A working man's city. Always has been and always will be. And the Butte working man has not always been treated fairly by the big guy. This is why unions were formed and why they flourished here. At one point, Butte was known as the "Gibraltar of Labor". So, you can imagine Miners Union Day was once a pretty big deal. And as far as the World Museum of Mining is concerned, it still is.
