The most exciting display for this year will be "Clovis to Coal".  This is an 11,000 year community identity project that will be constructed in the Rock Room from panels depiction an in-depth history of the Musselshell Valley.  The project is designed and implemented by Dr. Larry Lahren, archaeologist and owner of Anthro Research in Livingston, MT. and his staff.  The exhibit will include replicas of stone tools, bow and arrows, created by master craftsman Bill McConnell, founder of the Past Skills Wilderness and Tracking School in Bozeman.  The grand opening is Saturday, May 18th.  Several demonstrations are being coordinated for this day along with a chuck wagon lunch. 

This project has been made possible by contributions from individual donors, the Musselshell Valley Community Foundation, the local school system, and a private memorial.
