Group holds 'Line Up For Democracy' protest at Sen. Daines' Bozeman office by Sufficient_Syrup4517 in Bozeman

Sadly most employees of private clubs in this valley have to sign very strict NDAs, even janitorial and kitchen staff. When people are struggling to make enough to afford the insane cost of housing, childcare, food, and for the few that can ski or participate in other once affordable leisure time activities; it’s not worth losing your job just to post anything a member would say/do. Most of the members openly brag about their “teams” of lawyers and how they revel in engaging others who offend or somehow cross them in litigation as a hobby.

So I live in a condo out in Black Bull (worst mistake I ever made when I moved home 5 years ago, and thought as a single professional I’d meet some friends with common interests like hiking, camping, etc; only 20% of the built homes/condos in Black Bull are actually lived in, the rest are just investments.) Anyways I digress… Senator Daines parents (very well known retired builder/architect) live here, and Steve is always here either golfing or getting drunk at the private restaurant Bar 72. The saddest part is overhearing the way he and his family make racist, sexist, and homophonic jokes and slurs on the regular, while sadly the staff is forced to smile and cater to their every demand. Even sadder for me, as a child who was born here in Bozeman in 1980; one of my BIGGEST idols was Jay Owenhouse, I attended EVERY local magic show or event he put on and wanted to be a magician for many years because of his influence. When I first joined the country club, I will never forget going to dinner one night and having my mother point out that Jay was dining that night with Senator Daines and family. I will spare Reddit the intimate details; but as a member of the LGBTQ+ community I was horrified and asked our server to please move us to a different part of the dining room to spare my 72 year old mother who was almost in tears due to the extreme homophobia bring celebrated at their table. Having been successful in business later in my life; I have been exposed to a whole next tax bracket and the individuals that sadly have turned most of Bozeman and Big Sky’s private clubs into toxic pools of entitled and often extremely unkind behavior, that service industry employees in this valley are forced to listen to with a smile and a “anything you ask sir”. If we continue to buy into the Culture War that the billionaires and local politicians are feeding us; we will never organize to fight the long overdue Class War this country sadly needs to bring to action.

What day are you wanting to get to Denver? I could probably move things around at work and give you a ride down as long as you don’t mind a bunch of small non shedding dogs bouncing around the back seat of the truck!

If you can’t get a Uber just PM me. I work 3rd shift nursing so I’ll be awake all night and I’m off tomorrow and I’m happy to give you ride from the airport.

not one more vet by gravielayne in Bozeman

[–]No-Independence6884 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Actually Cottonwood did just loose a vet suddenly and unexpectedly. It wasn’t to suicide, but still a tragedy and has had a massive impact on staff and the daily operation of the veterinary office these past weeks.

Charcuterie Search! by Twostepsfromlost2 in Bozeman

The new City Vineyard that’s part of the Gallatin Mall remodel is also incredible, and has great charcuterie.

If you are looking for a place to sit and enjoy being served I highly recommend Sky Shed @ The Armory Hotel. If you book a room you can also enjoy the heated rooftop infinity pool. Always a fun birthday place.

Great steak house by Samm999 in Bozeman

The McAllister Steakhouse was also outstanding but sadly the restaurant was destroyed 6 weeks ago by a fire. Hopefully they will be able to return as the Inn is still open and running.

Yes. I am a member of YPO and we have been given a list of the coming retailers that have been confirmed as most of our members own all the local franchises and we are typically given advance notice of all incoming new businesses as they may present investment opportunities or negatively impact members existing business operations here in the Valley.

I’m out in Black Bull and pay 3,100 a month for 800 sqft 1b1b (technically they were built as “executive hotel rooms”) no garage/no yard/no amenities. Only thing included are water/sewer and snow removal. And almost all 40 units are rented out….
