Small Montana Town Knows How To Have A Great Time
In case you missed it, the cute town of Manhattan is putting the “F” in fun.
This July, Outta Bounds Golf is set to open for the community to enjoy. It’s similar to a Top Golf experience surrounded by beautiful mountains and a big sky. You will be able to play mini golf, work on your driving distance, all while enjoying food and drinks.
You can see the full article below and also register for the VIP Grand Opening which will take place July 4th, 5th, and 6th.

If you are looking for fun sooner than July, starting May 15th the Manhattan American Legion is hosting their first ever Music Bingo Night.
The fun starts at 7 PM and is going to happen every other Wednesday for the time being, but like the community always does, the more people that show up, the more often this fun event will take place. Hopes of having it every Wednesday are not out of the picture.
You think this is great…just wait until August when we have the Manhattan Potato Festival! Saturday, August 17th, round up the kiddos and get your spots early for the parade and a day full of super fun events put on by local businesses and more.
The town of Manhattan really knows how to have a good time. Follow their local social media pages for events happening every week for folks of all ages.
Nice work Manhattan! Keeping the community active and keeping Montana, Montanan.

HELENA, Mont — Gov. Greg Gianforte is backing a new effort to keep data centers from driving up Montanans’ power bills.
This week, Gianforte announced Montana is signing on to the Ratepayer Protection Pledge — an initiative endorsed by President Trump.
Several major technology companies like Amazon, Google, Meta, Microsoft, OpenAI, Oracle, and XAI first signed the pledge back in March.
The pledge comes as data center development continues to grow — raising questions about how much new energy will be needed and who will pay for it.
NBC Montana spoke with Julia Haggerty, professor of geography and department head of earth sciences at Montana State University, about whether Montana’s power grid is ready for that growth.
“Not without resolution of significant transmission bottlenecks and massive amounts of new generation. So, while our grid is adequately, relatively adequately equipped to serve the needs of our current load base, it’s definitely not equipped to accommodate the new demands without a lot of expansion,” she said.
According to the pledge, data center developers will pay for new power generation, and infrastructure needed to support their operations.
“It does align with ongoing regulatory efforts to ensure that the cost of new generation associated with data centers is borne by the developers of those data centers and not customers,” Haggerty said.
The governor’s office says Gianforte’s support of the pledge is designed to encourage responsible data center investments while protecting Montana ratepayers from long-term costs.
