See what’s happening in the marine world at the MontereyBay Aquarium or Spain’s architecturally splendid Oceanográficde Valencia before standing beneath the gates of BuckinghamPalace or the historic Alamo Mission.

Journey to the edge of the Irish Cliffs of Moher, Great Wallof China, or New York City’s own Grand Central Station. Ifthe Leaning Tower of Pisa doesn’t light your fire, shoot intospace for a rove atop Mars, i.e. the “Red Planet.”

Brought to life in a certain family film, the AmericanMuseum of Natural History is another Empire State must, orhead south to the Children’s Museum Houston. Also worth atrip are Boston’s Museum of Science or National Air andSpace Museum.

Huynh was publiclyannounced the BozemanSymphony’s new Music Director ata virtual event on June 8th via a liveZoom meeting hosted by Board ofDirector’s Chair StephenSchachman and Executive DirectorEmily Paris-Martin held at OldMain Gallery.

Norman was selected out of sixfinalists following a year-long MusicDirector search throughout the 2019– 2020 concert season. He wasselected with the help of theBozeman Symphony Board ofDirectors, an eight-person searchcommittee, staff, musicians, andcommunity participation.

Stephen Schachman said,“Norman’s talents coupled with ourterrific Executive Director EmilyParis-Martin and our dynamic staffwill ensure an exciting future for ourcommunity and our musicians. Itwould be remiss not to thank thesearch committee and our patronswho supported us during thesearch.”

As the Bozeman Symphony final-izes its 2020 – 2021 concert seasonschedule, Schachman adds, “We areall incredibly excited to start thenext chapter of the BozemanSymphony and to continue to bringexceptional live symphonic music tothe community. Norman is anexceptional talent and we are fortu-

nate to have someone of his level ofexpertise help forge the future of theBozeman Symphony Society.”

Norman Huynh has establishedhimself as a conductor with an abili-ty to captivate an audience througha multitude of musical genres. Bornin 1988, Norman is a first-genera-tion Asian American and the first inhis family to pursue classical musicas a career. Along with his role asthe Bozeman Symphony’s MusicDirector, he will continue as theHarold and Arlene SchnitzerAssociate Conductor of the OregonSymphony.

Norman is honored to be namedthe Bozeman Symphony’s newMusic Director, and see’s theappointment as the beginning of anexciting adventure. “I am inspiredby Bozeman’s support of the arts,and the closeness of the communityas a whole. Everyone that I met dur-ing my time in Bozeman, from baris-tas at coffee shops to The Last WindUp, expressed a genuine interest inthe Bozeman Symphony. I look for-ward to joining this community andcreating musical experiences thatcontinue to bring us closer together,”said Huynh.

He adds, “As I step into the roleof Music Director, I am most excit-ed about the potential of what wecan accomplish together. I look for-ward to expanding our collaborativeefforts and building lasting partner-ships with other arts institutions intown. In the wake of current worldevents, I believe that the role of theSymphony is to reconnect us witheach other, to facilitate healing andforward momentum through thelanguage of music.”

Bozeman SymphonyConcertmaster Carrie Krause isthrilled for the future of her fellowmusicians and the entire BozemanSymphony. She said, “Musically,Norman’s well-equipped to inspireand lead our orchestra to a new levelof excellence through his musicalpassion, awareness of style, trainingat top-level institutions, adaptability,and deep dedication to the art ofour craft.”

Carrie adds, “The BozemanSymphony at large will benefit fromNorman’s strength of creative pro-gramming, community-centeredmarketing, charisma, approachabili-ty, and thoughtfulness in collaborat-

ing with musicians, staff, audiences,patrons, and Bozeman’s incrediblyrich community of arts organizations.”

Here deer, ducks,geese, antelope, sand-hill cranes and manysongbird species,along with creaturestoo small to see, havebeen the only bene-factors of the miner-al-rich, hot artesianflow of 80 gal/minand 120º. Nature hasrebounded during thisperiod of relativehuman inactivity. TheSprings’ thrivingwildlife rely on theconstant flow of hotwater to sustain theirnatural, complex ecosystem.Wetlands created by the springs’drainage hold the eponymous WarmSprings Creek, emptying into theMadison River at its most populartube and boat ramp.

Thanks to the government’s PPPloan program and the help of FirstSecurity Bank, Norris received apartially forgivable loan and stafferswere furloughed for only three

weeks. With payroll re-instated, theyreturned and accounted for the fewhuman beings on the surroundingproperties this spring. They have cre-ated substantial improvements thatwill benefit them, the environment,

There are nowtwo new handwash stations forthe public, and twofor staff usearound the pool. Awalk in cooler hasbeen added, andwhen it comes upto speed, morelocal microbrew

More native trees, 344 to beexact, have been added to the land-scape thanks to the Norris team ded-icated to providing a calm, cool,

shady oasis in Montana’s high desert.The café greenhouse and gardenswere planted on schedule to providelocally grown salads and beautifullyprepared vegetable side dishes servedpoolside, as regulars have come toexpect.

From MSU News ServiceIn an unprecedented time, the

unthinkable has redefined everyaspect of how people live and lookat the world around them. ForKenny Chesney, who spent last yearplaying to the always passionatemembers of No Shoes Nation inareas not visited by his massive sta-dium runs, the idea of not return-ing to the stadiums on his 2020schedule was inconceivable. Andthen COVID-19 created a realitywhere the number of unknownssaw the songwriter/superstar firstpostpone the opening leg, then ulti-mately push the Blue Chair BayRum Presents Kenny Chesney’sChillaxification Tour Fueled byMarathon into 2021.

“I kept talking to experts, cityofficials, team owners, medical peo-ple, looking to understand how wewere coming along with resolvingthe health issues,” Chesneyexplains. “I had kept hoping that astime passed, information would notonly increase, but there would besome sort of solution so peoplecould come back together. Butthings weren’t getting any clearer,so I did the hardest thing for me,but obviously best option for thesafety of No Shoes Nation, myroad family and everyone at thebuildings involved.”

Now, Messina Touring Groupannounces the rescheduled stadiumdates for Chesney’s ChillaxificationTour, which will visit 18 venueswith the same lineup of specialguests: Old Dominion and Michael

Franti & Spearhead.The Bozeman showmoves to Saturday, July3rd, 2021, at BobcatStadium on theMontana StateUniversity campus.

“So much goes intothe stadium shows, peo-ple have no idea,”Chesney says. “Take allof that, then factor inall the other issues thatcome with rescheduling,making sure there aren’tconflicts with baseballor other events nearby– and maintain the kindof quality we want tobring. There were somany questions, so manyunknowns, but I believe musicmakes a difference in people’s lives,so everyone on my team, the pro-moter’s team and all of the peoplewe deal with have worked overtimetrying to get this sorted out.

“With Here and Now, we have somuch great music! The response tothe ‘We Do’ video tells me every-body is ready to get back out thereto do what we all do best: rockhard, sing loud, enjoy the moment,love our friends and create memo-ries that will last a lifetime.”

Though 2020 has been nothing short ofexhausting, we’re still facing the always-loom-ing threat of climate change. Recyling is asimple but effective way to do our part in itsslowing.

The Gallatin Valley is home to numerousdrop-off sites and also features a number ofcurbside recycling services. A lack of optionsthere aren’t! And though plenty ofBozemanites already find themselves on thegreen bandwagon, everyone can use a refresh-er from time to time.A few tips:

– Recycling should not be bagged– All materials should be empty, clean

and dry– Leave labels attached with caps on– Plastics #3 to #7 and unlabeled plastics

are noT rEcYclAblE

– Plastics #1 and #2 that are not bottle shaped are no longEr rEcYclAblE

(clam shells, cups, etc.)– Do not include garbage, food waste or

unclean items – contaminates can lead to an entire load of otherwise clean recyclables ending up as garbage

Acceptable Items:– Bottle and jug-shaped Plastics #1 & #2

– Crushed aluminum, tin and steel Cans– Flattened Cardboard

(no wax-coated items)– Paper items including newspaper,

magazines and office papers– Phone Books and Paper Bags

From Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks (FWP)Many fishing access and other sites

administered by Montana Fish, Wildlife &Parks have seen increased use as people enjoythe outdoors in the midst of COVID-19.FWP encourages people to get outside buturges all recreationists to be good stewards ofthese sites. They belong to everyone and aremaintained through the sale of hunting andfishing licenses.

FWP staff have come across several inci-dents lately of still-smoldering campfires atfishing access sites and Wildlife ManagementAreas, and of noncombustible items beingdumped into and around firepits.

For example, a window air-conditioningunit was recently discarded on a picnic tablein Region 7 at East Rosebud FAS nearForsyth.

“There’s a lot of dumping things into the firepits and expecting the next person toburn it,” said Forsyth-area Game WardenWyatt Pickens. “Some are treating them liketrash cans.”

People may not see a problem with leav-ing trash in or near firepits to be burnedlater, but the trash may blow away, pile up

and create a fire haz-ard, or attract bearsand other wildlife –increasing chances ofencounters withhumans. Items likeglass, plastic andmetal also don’t breakdown after burning,leaving litter and haz-ards for the nextcamper.

Littering whilehunting, fishing orusing public lands ispunishable by a fineand a one-year sus-pension of hunting,fishing or trappingprivileges, Pickensnoted.

Recreationists areasked to be consciousof fire danger andthoroughly extinguish any campfires withwater or dirt before leaving the area. It takesonly a light breeze for coals to reignite and

spread. Do not use the firepits as a place todiscard trash or other items. All visitorsshould use the trash receptacles provided orpack their trash out with them. Also, dump-

ing of items at FWPsites is illegal.

The extra timespent cleaning up lit-tered sites takes awayfrom staff time to main-tain them for everyone’senjoyment. FWP invitesyou to enjoy the out-doors this summer, butplease help keep thesepublic resources in topshape!

To report instancesof dumping, littering orvandalism at FWP sites,please contact 1-800-TIP-MONT, your areawarden or regionalFWP office.

Montana Fish, Wildlife& Parks, through itsemployees and citizen com-mission, provides for the

stewardship of the fish, wildlife, parks, and recre-ational resources of Montana, while contributing tothe quality of life for present and future generations. •
