Planning underway for MSGA 125th Anniversary CelebrationMontana Planning is underway for the Montana Stockgrowers Association's 125th Anniversary Celebration, June 10 to 13, 2009, in Miles City. The celebration will cap off the organization's regular mid-year meeting. In 1884, a group of seven men, led by Col. Thomas J. Bryan, met at the newly formed Miles City Club and founded the Eastern Montana Stockgrowers Association. Later, across the state in Helena, another group of men, led by Granville Stuart, formed the Montana Stockgrowers Association. The members of the two groups decided to merge into the one Montana Stockgrowers Association that exists today. MSGA will hold its mid-year meetings June 10 through June 12. Just before noon June 12, the 125th Anniversary Celebration will begin. So far these events are planned: golf scramble, Solaris Feeders tour, Fort Keogh tour, Frontier Photographers presentation at the Art Center, Western Roundup exhibit at the Art Center, Range Riders Museum visit, a dinner and dance at the fairgrounds, wagon/cattle drive, parade and ranch rodeo. Look for more details and registration information at the trade show during MSGA's Annual Convention, Dec. 11 to 13, or log on to www.mtbeef.org.
