Why This Weekend in Montana Will Be One to Remember

This weekend in Montana is going to be an exciting one on a lot of levels. There is so much happening across the state starting off with a holiday.  

Halloween Friday Returns for the First Time Since 2014

Halloween falling on a Friday this year is special. The last time we had Halloween fall on a Friday was in 2014, and the next time it happens won’t be until 2031. This is one great way to kick off the weekend.

If that wasn’t exciting enough for you this weekend, Sunday at 2 a.m., it’s the end of Daylight Saving Time, and we will be turning our clocks back an hour. Montana is one of the states that wants to do away with changing our clocks twice a year. For that to happen, we need other states in the West to agree to do the same.

Other states want to do away with clock changing, but states can’t agree on which time to adopt for the year. Some states want to stay on Daylight Saving Time, and some want to stay on Standard Time.   

Regardless, this weekend is going to be a wild weekend in Montana. Be safe out there and enjoy yourself. Remember to designate a sober driver and play responsibly.
