Attire
“Montana casual” is the dress code for the event. This can include nice jeans, flannel and other button-up shirts, sweaters, and vests. July weather is often in the mid-70s to 90s; evenings can get chilly, so we’d recommend bringing a light insulated jacket.
Please bring attire appropriate for the moderate activites. This could include sneakers, hiking boots, or athletic clothing.
Cancellations
All registration fees become non‑refundable after July 1. As this is intended to be an intimate, small‑group event, please notify us as soon as possible if you are unable to attend.
