Even though we are not in fire season in Montana, it's never too early to start thinking about how you're going to prepare for when it gets hot and dry. Join Tri-County Firesafe at the Blackfoot River Brewing Co. to learn about the upcoming fire season and ways you can prevent and mitigate wildfires in your area. There will be trivia, prizes, kids' activities, and more. $1 of every beer sold that night will go back to the Tri-County Firesafe Working Group.
