Good morning, Butte.

Cruise Nite at Ace Hardware on Wednesday drew many classic cars, trucks, and motorcycles despite early rain concerns, and winners—Gage Lunler with his 1969 Triumph Chopper and Ed Hall with his pink 1967 Cadillac—earned each a pair of tickets to the September 10 Tom Keifer Band/L.A. Guns concert; the final event is set for August 20 at Stodden Park.

Butte local David Coleman II has joined the cast of an upcoming movie—details on his role and filming schedule are expected to be announced later.

City officials said demolition of the abandoned Herberger’s building at Butte Plaza Mall will begin the week of Aug.10 to clear space for a new grocery store.

On August 16, Butte’s 3 Legends Field will host the inaugural Montana High School All Star Baseball Game to raise funds for a NW children’s hospital—gates open at 2:30 p.m. and the game starts at 4 p.m., with graduating seniors taking the field to showcase their skills one last time.

The Frontier Conference held its first virtual football media day on Wednesday and introduced players and coaches from seven teams in its new East division.
