WHAT TO READ, SEE AND APPRECIATE
STUMPTOWN SONGWRITERS’ CIRCLE AT THE O’SHAUGHNESSY
A trio of Flathead Valley songwriters will converge at the O’Shaughnessy Cul- tural Arts Center in White sh Nov. 10 to showcase an evening of original, compara- tive songs.
The Stumptown Songwriters’ Circle will feature three of the Valley’s most pop- ular songwriters exploring di erent musi- cal takes on the same subjects, from kids to road trips to Montana itself, all in a fun and unique listening environment.
The local musicians are Mike Murray, David Walburn and Nick Spear, who will perform from 7:30 p.m. to 9:15 p.m.
Each songwriter will perform his own version of a topical song about love, travel, the Treasure State, politics, and more.

Forest, but also to provide us some materials that we need,” she said.
As of last week, Moore wasn’t yet sure which lms would be shown in Kalispell, since the actual Ban Moun- tain Film Festival began Oct. 29. Once the weeklong festival is through, it begins to tour.
The lms chronicle all sorts of moun- tain culture: “3,000 Cups of Tea” from journalist Jennifer Jordan updates audiences on Greg Mortenson’s saga; “A Song for Tomorrow” explores the myth- ical towers of the Qingfeng Valley at the boundary of China’s rst national park.
In “Ace and the Desert Dog,” adven- ture photographer Ace Kvale and his dog, Genghis Khan, trek for 60 days through Utah’s canyon country to celebrate Kvale’s 60th birthday. “All Roads Lead to Scotland” chronicles the unlikely climbing partnership of Nick Bullock and Time Neill. “The Hard Way” follows 89-year-old Bob Hayes of Arlee as he trains for the Bighorn ultramarathon.

Each night of the lm festival in Kalispell, there will be di erent mov- ies shown and ra e prizes given away. There will be a ra e for a season pass to White sh Mountain Resort; those raf- e tickets must be purchased.
Moore said this year’s tickets are at throwback prices of $10 a person, down from $14 last year.
“We’re hoping to get more people involved in the lm festival,” she said, noting that throwback pricing helps families bring kids.
But Moore also warned of waiting too long to buy tickets, since the lm festival has sold out with consistency in the past.
“We de nitely recommend people to get their tickets in advance,” Moore said.
Tickets for the Ban Mountain Film Festival are available at the White Room in White sh, Sportsman and Ski Haus in White sh and Kalispell, and Rocky Mountain Out tter in Kalispell.
