• This year we organized the Community Cleanup in May. Last year we had 17 volunteers. This year we had almost 40 volunteers.

This year the Missouri Valley Marketing decorated the gazebo downtown in preparation for hosting Santa during the Christmas stroll. The gazebo was decked out with Christmas lights, wreaths, bulbs and a decorated Christmas tree. A "throne" was provided for Santa to entertain the children. Townsend Rotary let us use canvas panels to enclose the gazebo and a propane heater so we could keep it warm in the Gazebo.

On Sept 19, 2018 Missouri Valley Marketing hosted the monthly Southwest Montana Marketing. Southwest Montana Marketing is a non-profit organization dedicated to marketing Southwest Montana for tourism. The organization consists of members from local organizations in the towns and cities of Southwest Montana.

Pickleball has become a very popular game for the Townsend School students. Last year David Lawson arranged for members of the local Pickleball Club to teach pickleball to his students in his PE classes. Many of the kids loved playing pickleball and want to continue to play the sport.

This year Mr. Lawson bought 3 portable pickleball nets for the school. The nets can be put up and taken down in the school gyms without interfering with the other sports played in the gyms.

Missouri Valley Marketing held the 2nd Annual Community Cleanup in conjunction with Patrick Plantenberg's Annual School Cleanup on May 19, 2018.  The joint cleanup projects were very successful with over 40 volunteers helping to cleanup the school, pick up trash left curbside and assist community members with their cleanup projects.

The Townsend Inaugural Zombie Run was a success by any measure.  Over 80 people participated in the family-oriented run/game event.

On Sunday Oct 29 the participants, volunteers and organizers of the event met at the Fishtale Tavern for registration/check-in. Many people enjoyed special zombie drinks, for both the adults and kids, and lunch during registration period. Laura Obert was on hand to do free face painting for anyone that wanted to be made up as a zombie.
