Planning underway for Bozeman west side library

BOZEMAN, Mont. — Plans for a second Bozeman Public Library branch are moving forward as supporters work to raise money for a west-side location.The Bozeman Library Friends and Foundation bought land on Competition Drive in the Urban + Farm development for the project. The group plans to raise about $25 million and then turn that money over to the city for construction.This location is also ideal because it's close to Meadowlark Elementary and Gallatin High School, and sits on a Streamline bus route.Much of Bozeman's residential and commercial growth is happening on the west side. Supporters said the new branch would help meet demand in that part of the city. Census data shows growing numbers of families on the west side of 19th Avenue.More than half of the library's circulation comes from the children's section. The foundation said it wanted to make sure new families on the west side had access to those services.Janay Johnson of the Bozeman Library Friends and Foundation said distance can shape how often people use a library."The further people live from a library, the less likely they are to use it frequently. And you know, library use is is important for early literacy, getting kids

BOZEMAN, Mont. — With ski season getting closer, the Bridger Ski Foundation brought shoppers to the Gallatin County Fairgrounds for its annual ski swap over the weekend.People browsed used skis, snowboards and other mountain gear as local resorts and ski hills prepared for the season. The event gave shoppers a lower-cost option while also keeping equipment in use.One shopper came in with a specific goal."Looking for Telly boots," said Jackson Borg.Borg said the lower prices mattered, but so did reusing older gear."It's definitely nice to get something on cheaper side, but it's also - recycling materials is super big. So, hand me down stuff is the best," he said.The Bridger Ski Foundation said the swap also helps families manage the cost of the sport while passing gear along to younger skiers and riders."The cost of sport, like equipment. It's a huge barrier and it's also just a healthy way to keep your equipment in town back to the next generation. Kids are growing. And it brings us together.
