Fishtail Family Fun Day 2011

Celebrating Pioneer Women!
Come enjoy a fun filled day in Fishtail, Saturday June 25th, 2011. People come from all over the state to enjoy our little one block town. With the beauty of the Beartooth Mountains in the background, it is it the perfect spot to enjoy the day with your family! This year’s theme, Celebrating Pioneer Women, is in honor of the hard working women of the early 1900’s.

The day will start off with a pancake breakfast, and there will be lots of vendor booths, book sales, and bake sales. The famous two mile long parade starts at 11:00am!

Be sure to take the kids to check out the afternoon's activities in the park. There will be something fun for all ages, including pioneer day demonstrations, a bouncy house, paintball games and much more!

This year’s raffle will be a large playhouse which is being made by the Absarokee High School VoAg Classes, and finishing the day off is the annual Duck Race! Tickets for the raffle and duck race can be purchased at the Cowboy Bar, Muddy Lamb Studio, Fishtail General Store and Potter’s Rock Shop. Proceeds from the day will go to help support the Fishtail Community Center and Park.

Bring your friends and family and come celebrate Pioneer Women with us and see what our small town has to offer!

New Website Coming Soon!

We will have our full scale Fishtail Nye website up soon! During the transition, there may be times that our blog is temporarily inaccessible. We are excited about the opportunities having a web presence will offer local businesses, organizations, and services.

Thank you for your patience!

Hello Friends,

We would like to introduce the Fishtail Nye Neighborhood community forum to you. Our goal is to promote stronger community ties and all that is wonderful about this area of Montana, and what it has to offer. Why? Because...That’s what neighbors do!

Currently we have a list of more than 50 businesses in the Fishtail Nye Neighborhood we are certain will benefit from this forum. We are also confident that local residents and visitors to our area will find the resources we are creating very helpful as well. What are the plans ahead?

First, we will offer a handout directory (The Neighborhood Scoop) containing three sections:

· Neighbor News will feature contact information about clubs, schools, churches and organizations.

· Helping Hands will list local businesses (i.e. retail, services, ranches, organizations, etc).

· Stay & Play will concentrate on the great recreation choices south of Fishtail, between the drainages of the West Rosebud and Stillwater Rivers. Dining, lodging, and businesses offering recreational adventures will be highlighted here, as well as destinations for hiking, camping and sightseeing.

The Neighborhood Scoop will be offered to visitors free of charge at participating businesses.

Second, a website will expand on the Neighbor News, Helping Hands and Stay & Play ideas mentioned above. A Community Calendar will be included on the home page highlighting upcoming community events, plus a link to your business website or to an information sheet about your business. Please visit us at www.fishtailnye.com and click to subscribe to our news feed free of charge.

The 2011 membership fee is $25 for businesses wishing to participate. Remember, the fee will include your business contact information in the directory (The Neighborhood Scoop) as well as links to your business on the Fishtail Nye Neighborhood website. Checks can be made out to: Fishtail Nye Neighborhood.

Please take a moment and fill out the questionnaire on Page 2. It can be dropped off at the Muddy Lamb or the Fishtail General Store.

You may also mail completed questionnaires to:
