The Northwest Montana Fair and Rodeo always provides many unforgettable moments.
The week is the culmination of the hard work of youth who have raised an animal for show or with the intention of selling it at market. It also shows off the talents of the Flathead Valley with thousands of exhibits in the categories of horticulture, fine arts and crafts and home culinary.
