The 2023 edition of "Rhythm and Brews" at the Original Mineyard was off to possibly its best start in event history. In fact, the party was in full swing, and kids and adults alike were having a great time. And then the storm hit. Saturday evening's freak lightning storm and torrential downpour put an abrupt end to the event just after 5pm. But other than the early end and soaked partygoers, the fundraiser for Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Butte was a big success. Here's a look at some of the fun that was had before the clouds opened.

Another big event is returning this summer to the Original Mineyard. It's the annual Rhythm and Brews festival and it's one day your family should definitely mark on your calendar. Rhythm and Brews is put on each August by Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Butte and is one of their primary fundraisers. This year it will be taking place on Saturday, August 19. It features some of the finest local craft beer our town has to offer along with a large selection of domestic beer for you to enjoy while you check out the many cars, trucks and bikes on display in a huge car show. Again, this year there will be live music, a children's area, food trucks and a great day for the entire family.

Final preparations are being put on this Friday's Butte Central Spring Auction and we're getting our first look at some of the incredible items, packages and services that will be presented in both the live and silent auctions.

Butte Auto is hosting a free and open to the public CPR clinic this Wednesday at Butte's Copper King Hotel. Classes will be in the ballroom and will be offered at 11:00am, 2:00pm and 4:00pm where you will be taught how to recognize early signs of a heart attack or a stroke and basic life support.
