The Big Sky Chamber of Commerce, with funding support from Gallatin County, Madison County and Big Sky Resort Tax, recently hired Sanderson Stewart to complete a transportation study to evaluate traffic safety and operations along the MT Hwy 64 (“Lone Mountain Trail”) corridor and to assist with planning for priority projects. 
 
Sanderson Stewart will be presenting their findings, along with future traffic projections, at this public meeting on Tuesday, July 18, 2017 from 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm at the Water & Sewer District Conference Room. The presentation will include an overview of results from the analysis of existing conditions and will highlight key intersections that warrant turn lanes based on established traffic standards. The update will also include an overview of crash data, next steps in the analysis, and collaboration opportunities between counties, state and the local community to address issues.

The Big Sky Transportation District and the Big Sky Community Organization will also be present so that all of the organizations handling various issues related to transportation in our community will be on hand.  Please join us for this informative session.

After record-breaking enrollment for the last two years—and increasingly long waitlists—the Big Sky Community Organization has purchased a second yurt to accommodate up to 40 campers a day in the community’s only summer long, full-day, five day a week summer camp. The move will not only allow an additional ten campers to enroll daily, but will also provide spaces for campers to participate in different group activities simultaneously, and to divide the camp occasionally according to age groups.

Camp Big Sky is now in its 11th year and serves children entering first through entering fifth grade. Camp begins the first Monday following the last week of school—this year, that’s June 19th—through the week before school begins, ending August, 25th.

Enrollment for the program has opened online at https://bscomt.org/camp-big-sky/ and parents and visitors with childcare needs for specific camps are encouraged to enroll early as even with the additional spaces some days and weeks are already filling.

Generous donations from individuals to the Big Sky Community Organization in addition to the Yellowstone Club Community Foundation, Moonlight Community Foundation and some reserve funds from Camp Big Sky programs have funded the construction of the yurt.
