October 5: Great Harvest Bread Company
According to the website, "Great Harvest also embodies the small town values one might expect from a company headquartered in Dillon, MT (population: 4,134). Our values show in everything we do. Though each of our local Great Harvest bakery and cafe franchises reflects its owners and its community, some things are true for all of them. No matter which local bakery or cafe you visit, you will find that (aside from phenomenal food) Great Harvest is about the people. We value the people in our communities, from franchise owners and their families, to employees and their families, and our customers and their families too. We’ve described our approach to food as old-fashioned, and the same can be said of our approach to people. It may be increasingly rare, but we still believe in being good neighbors, treating people well, and doing business with integrity."

Concert Review: Teresa Storch at The Roost
Teresa Storch, along with right-hand man Peter Lacis, lit up the last night of summer with a fiery set at The Roost.
A two hour set by the Longmont folks had patrons torn between sports and music, and it was hard; as hard as the wood-slabbed floor, to cold shoulder the latter.
