Dear Jeff: The Boys & Girls Club of Southwest Montana enthusiastically supports the Story Mill
Community Park Proposal, “The creation of a new city park” Our more than 2,200 children/
youth served by the Boys & Girls Club are committed to the success of this most worthy project.
You may recall our youth sold (holiday wreaths) for more than 12 years - and with the assistance
of MSU students designed and created an in - town camp near Story Mill... As property owners,
our youth removed over one ton of garbage from the property as well as the adjacent streams and
river banks. Our children, youth and families stand ready to ensure the preservation of this most
beautiful asset for generations to come and hope you will as well.
Please accept our gratitude for your hard work and dedication to our community.
Warm regards, Jeanne Quinn - Bucher
Chief Professional Officer
