The online trend-watchers at Influenster recently named the Kit Kat Bar Montana’s most popular Halloween candy for 2016 – the only state to do, in fact, despite the delicious chocolate-covered wafer bar’s appearance in the Top 3 for every single state.

Halloween is for the Family!
We’re all aware of the parties, the concerts and the more “mature” events that make up Halloween weekend in Missoula. But believe it or not there’s a lot of family-friendly stuff going on as well!

Nominate your heroes!
A true hero isn’t attracted to glory. But anyone who’s been on the receiving end of a heroic act knows that their humility is no excuse to neglect our gratitude.
