My brother lives in Seattle and often sends me articles that relate to Montana. Most recently it was this article in the Seattle Times: "Calling It Quits In Coal Country: New Rules Force a Town with Washington Ties to Go Its Own Way."
Nominate Someone for the Gallery of Outstanding Montanans
The Gallery of Outstanding Montanans was established by the State Legislature in 1979 to pay homage to citizens of the Treasure State who made contributions of state or national significance to their selected fields of endeavor while epitomizing the unique spirit and character that defines Montana. Inductees into Montana’s hall of fame are rotated into the gallery on a biennial basis; each is honored for an eight-year period. This program is managed by the Montana Historical Society.
Every ten years, the Montana Historical Society puts out a statewide call for nominees--and this is the year! Consider having your class nominate a local hero. Learn about current and former inductees and find a link to submit a nomination. Nominations are due by 11:59 p.m., Sunday, May 3, 2026.
