My cousin, Pat Maloney, was the president. He was interviewed by the WSJ for the article. It feels like one more thing that we couldn't manage to hang on to here. very frustrating. It is a tremendous task for anyone to take on again. Missoula is doing one if anyone cares to drive over for it.

Last year, there were over 120 celebrations, and this year less than 100. The reasons listed seem to be the same as the one's highlighted in today's Trib article.
