Good morning, this is your Bozeman Local Frequency for Thursday, October 30, 2025.

We’re waking up to a brisk autumn morning here in Bozeman, with clouds hanging over and temperatures in the low 30s—perfect weather to warm up with a strong cup of local roast. As you bundle up and head out, traffic is moving steadily, and no major incidents are being reported on main routes as of this hour. If you’re driving on Jackrabbit Lane, just a heads-up that a recent crash had the Gallatin County Sheriff's Office calling it significant, so continue to use caution in that area while crews finish cleanup.

On the neighborhood front, there was a bit of excitement downtown yesterday as a bear was spotted running through Main Street, even making a dash past Bozeman Spirits Distillery. The animal moved on quickly, but it’s a good reminder to be bear-aware, especially as wildlife makes its way through town during this transitional season.

Now, let’s talk about some of the fun you can have as we roll into the Halloween weekend. Tonight, Montana State’s women’s basketball team will host Bushnell University in an exhibition match at Worthington Arena. Tip-off is at 7 p.m., and Bobcat fans are eager to see how this young team continues shaping up after their strong performance earlier this week. Tickets are available at the door, and students get in free with valid ID, so let’s pack the stands and cheer for the Cats.

If you’re looking to get extra festive, Family Promise is hosting their Monster Mash Pickleball Bash tonight at The Picklr from 5:30 to 8:30. Grab your paddle, wear a costume, and rally for a great cause—all proceeds help local families facing housing insecurity.

Looking ahead, tomorrow’s shaping up to be a jam-packed day with everything from public skate sessions at Ressler Rink, to the ever-popular Trick or Treating in downtown Bozeman starting at 4 p.m. For the grownups, there’s a Monster Mash Bash with live music at the Armory Music Hall and late-night parties spreading from the Bozeman Taproom to Eagles Bar.

A reminder for skiers and snowboarders: the legendary Bridger Ski Foundation Ski Swap kicks off at the Gallatin County Fairgrounds this Saturday and Sunday. There’ll be thousands of new and used gear items for every skill level, plus it supports youth ski programs.

And in community news, the Bozeman Chamber is holding a Thursday Morning Business Networking Group, so if you’re looking to make new connections or share your ideas, that’s a welcoming space to check out.

That’s what’s happening right here at home. Stay safe, get out and enjoy our vibrant town, and if you spot any more wildlife on Main Street, snap a picture—just keep your distance.

This has been Bozeman Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
