Darby Logger DaysJuly 15 & 16, 2011

Darby, Montana Logging Sports Competion, Live Music, Great Food

In 1880 Ryan’s great great grandfather moved to the beautiful Bitterroot Valley of Montana. Logging helped support the Conner family then and does now. At age 16 Ryan purchased his fi rst timber sale, caught the logging bug, started a logging company and continues to be infl uential in Montana’s forest management to this day. In 2005, Ryan and Robin formed R&R Conner Aviation, purchased their own UH-1 Super B Helicopter, and started on a whole new adventure in the Bitterroot Valley.

They say the company is only as good as the people, and are grateful for their employee’s loyalty and hard work. The Bitterroot Valley, its natural resources, and its people have always been an integral part of their lives and livelihood. Whether it is in business, the community or proper resource management in Montana, the Conners know how important it is sustain proper growth and management for success in the long run. They want their kids to have the same opportunities they have to live and prosper.

Being featured on the internationally syndicated television show Ax Men, R&R Conner Aviation may be the best known heli-logging company in the world. This type of logging and the logging restraints faced by the Forest Service have led to the production of this DVD featuring today’s helicopter logging practices in Montana’s Bitterroot Valley forests. Ryan, Robin and the crew encourage you learn about the latest struggles of forest management and timber salvage, as well as their part in the solution on this Logging in the 21st Century DVD.

Sales of merchantable timber in the national forests have declined. Beetle kill and fi res have increased the dead wood. The Black Forest Division of R&R Conner Aviation is working to restore health and beauty Montana forests. You can also watch Logging in the 21st Century on the internet at www.rrconner.com to learn more about forest management and the roll R&R Conner Black Forest Division is playing in Montana and the Bitterroot Valley.

Comedies, dramas, musicals, Shakespeare in the Park, and many more performances are just a sampling of the year-round schedule put on by the Hamilton Players at the Hamilton Playhouse. Keep an eye on their schedule of events because you will not want to miss any of these wonderful productions. The Players has provided live, quality theatre for over thirty years,building a large supportive audience. This relationship has inspired many more community members to take the stage and join the Hamilton Players family. The new vision of the theater has extended to the creation of a Theater School for children ages K-12, with fall, spring, and summer programs. This has been a successful endeavor reaching a new generation of performers. www.hamiltonplayers.com

Farmers marketThe Restoration Begins with the Cupola Campaign at the Ravalli County Museum in Hamilton. The project is in full swing and we are proud of the historic restoration taking place outside as well as the soon to begin interior renovations. The Old County Courthouse designed by A. J. Gibson has been close to the heart of the downtown for over 100 years. The events that have taken place inside its hallowed halls and ante chambers have had the power to change people’s lives and make stories worth retelling. The Old Court House has been the site of countless historic events, trials, day to day activities and more recently many cultural explorations as well.

The Mission of the Museum is to preserve the cultural heritage of the Bitter Root Valley for you and future generations. As the home of the Ravalli County Museum it now has a fresh vision to present to the public. This Spring, as part of the ongoing evolution of this magnifi cent old building, you will experience the grand opening of several new exhibits, enhanced educational programming and a refurbished space that will draw you in … to history. Keep up with the progress on the museum’s website,

NExplore Between the Worlds

“Variety is the spice of life” and Karen Suennen, chef and owner of The Spice of Life Cafe & Catering, likes it that way. She wants to create a dining experience that is welcoming to everyone. The menu is diverse and uses spicy ingredients such as wasabi or chili peppers, but, Suennen states, “everything on the menu is not hot” she tries to include something for everybody. You will � nd a delectable variety including a bit of Caribbean, Thai, Japanese, and Italian cuisine. There is also a children’s menu, and beer and wine are available. “We use local ingredients whenever we can,” says Suennen, who’s half acre home garden provides some of the restaurant’s herbs, vegetables and � owers. Wild salmon, naturally raised beef, and vegetarian options are included. The decor is fun and funky with art from local artists on display. Folks are encouraged to come as they are, so if you are just off the river or ski hill, please stop in. The restaurant does not take reservations so no need to worry about that either.
