What’s Going On This Weekend? Sept. 27th – 29th ’24
BUTTE, MT - I see it all the time: people asking me, friends, Facebook, or even themselves what they want to do this weekend.
Living here in Butte, people think that their only options are to go to a restaurant, a bar, or a casino. I've made it my personal mission to dissuade those who feel this way and to inform the greater region beyond Butte that we in fact do have a ton of cool stuff going on every weekend.
