| "Where
Montana Began Cookbook"
The 2007 "Where Montana
Cooking Began" cookbook is now available for $19.95 at the
Stevensville Main Street Association office or at Your Branch Office
in Valley Drug. It will also be available on "First
Fridays" and at the "Creamery Picnic" on August 3rd and
4th.
The cookbook has wonderful recipes by
some of Stevensville's greatest cooks. This was a fun project to
create, not only the fun recipes but adding the history of
Stevensville "Where Montana Began" in 1841.
This cookbook would make a great gift
too!

Corps
of Discovery Bronzes...
The Stevensville Main Street
Association is sponsoring the issue of an edition of each figurine
in the original size ( 16 inches ) limited to thirty-five pieces. The
molds will then be destroyed and no further pieces will ever be
cast. Each piece will be numbered. The Association will retain two
of each edition and the others will be offered to the public on a
first-come-first-served basis.
The earlier orders will, of course,
receive the lower serial numbers. The price for each piece will be
$1500, with half the amount to be placed as a down payment.
In addition, fifty smaller pieces, a
little less than 8 inches in height, will be cast for the general
trade and largely offered for sale through art dealers elsewhere in
the state. These will be priced at $500 and are a miniature version
of the larger piece. Those who purchase a Lewis Original Edition
will receive preference in ordering subsequent editions of the
series.

Stevensville Main Street Association to order your bronze and for
