Whitewater Festival a success
Jerry Murphy | Hagadone News Network | UPDATED 10 years, 7 months AGO
Wow! What a weekend! The promoters promised the best Bigfork Whitewater Festival ever . . . and delivered. Overnight visitors and competitors from all over the U.S. and Canada brought their families to Bigfork to thoroughly enjoy the weekend. Even the campers pitched in to clean up the tent sites and dog residue.
The Bigfork Whitewater Festival has become a family event run by locals and appreciated by all. The competitors competed, the shop owners smiled and all were happy. I spoke with one young couple this morning sitting in front of their motel enjoying the perfect weather before starting back to Colorado. The big smile assured a return someday to Bigfork.
Replicate this weekend again . . . please!

Spending an afternoon on Bigfork's Electric Avenue
It is a typical August Tuesday afternoon on Bigfork’s Electric Avenue, somewhat warm, windless and slightly hazy from fires from the west. The usual summer afternoon car traffic is from all over including many from Montana, Alberta, Washington State, the Dakotas, and other states throughout the U. S. Cars drive slowly down the avenue waiting patiently for an open parking space.
