Bob Marshall Wilderness Foundation Hosts Fundraiser Event on Friday

The Bob Marshall Wilderness Foundation is holding its annual Voices of the Wilderness fundraiser event this Friday.

Guest speaker Doug Chadwick will talk about grizzly bears of the Gobi Desert at the Alpine Ballroom, 333 Main Street, in Kalispell, on Friday, Nov. 9, from 7 to 9 p.m. There will also be a silent art auction. Tickets are $25 and available online or by calling 387-3808.

Chadwick is a longtime writer for National Geographic magazine and a former wildlife biologist.

Raffle tickets for a five night, guided horse packing trip in the wilderness donated by Swan Mountain Outfitters are $10 apiece.

Proceeds will go to supporting Foundation trail projects. Patagonia recently pledged to support the Foundation’s trail maintenance work by sponsoring one trail project each year for the next five years.

Don’t worry, we’ll always be free.

But continued community support is what makes our reporting possible. Please consider a one-time or recurring gift to help sustain independent journalism in northwest Montana. Every donation is injected straight into the newsroom.

Thanks so much for backing us over all these years.
