The Upper Missouri River (Townsend) Ducks Unlimited Annual Banquet is coming up on Saturday, November 4th, at Watson’s Gym.
Fundraising banquets such as these preserve and create wetlands that will help ensure that waterfowl will have places to nest, raise their young, migrate through and winter in each year. Your attendance at the Townsend banquet will help DU conserve wetlands and critical upland habitat vital to North America’s waterfowl and the more than 900 other species of wildlife that use these same habitats. DU has conserved more than 16 million acres of waterfowl habitat in North America, more than any other conservation organization in existence, including restoring, enhancing, and protecting 501,369 acres within Montana. While DU’s #1 priority is waterfowl, more than 900 wildlife species benefit from our conservation work. During Fiscal Year 2022 (FY22), DU protected and restored more than 575,000 acres of wetlands and other wildlife habitats across the United States alone.
There will be many raffles, drawings, and door prizes for the adults and the kids (Green Wings). Prizes include a Benelli 28 ga., Christensen Arms .308, Springfield Garrison 1911 .45 ACP, Weatherby Element Tungsten, Ruger 10-22 .22LR Rifle, Mossberg 6.5 Creedmoor, Henry Goldenboy .22; Two Springfield Pistols, Four Escort 12 guages, a Traditions Buckstalker 50 cal. Muzzleloader, Artwork, Decoys and many more items for raffle, silent auction, and live auction. Doors open at 5:00 pm with raffles, games, and drinks catered by the Commercial Bar, dinner catered by the Watson’s of Prime Rib at 6:30pm, and the Live Auction will start at 7:30pm. Tickets are on sale at Schauber Surveying, 64 Jack Farm Rd in Townsend. Ticket prices are: Sponsorship Couples $325.00, Single $65.00, Couples $100.00, Greenwings (children) $30.00.

Live Free Standup Comedy with Marty Cunnie
Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area, Marty Cunnie grew up with a large Irish Italian family, which meant trading insults with uncles, aunts, and cousins on a regular basis since he could speak. The results of years of this brutal training resulted in a comedian with a love for raucous, bawdy humor who brings energy to every crowd he performs for, whether it be at the San Francisco Punch Line, Cobb’s Comedy Club, San Jose Improv, Sacramento’s Laughs Unlimited, or one of the many shows he produces under the F Bomb Comedy banner. Or for his two cats.

Suicide Prevention Class - American Legion Post 42
2024-01-20 09:00 - 12:00 | American Legion Club
Did you know that the state of Montana has one of the highest suicide rates in the nation, according to the statistics of the last several years? Did you know that in the US, veterans are dying of suicide at a rate of 18 per day? This statistic is down from 22 per day a decade ago. We, as citizens, need to intercede in order to save our friends and family from this fate.
If you would like to learn more about how to help those in your circle of friends, you may be interested to know that the Veterans Administration is providing a Suicide Prevention Class at the American Legion Post 42 in Townsend Mt.
The class is free and while some of it is geared for veterans, the majority of the class is general and applies to all. The class will be held on Saturday January 20, at 0900 at American Legion Post 42 in Townsend, MT. 211 Broadway St.
We are hoping that many of you will attend. We’ll have free coffee and donuts.
