NorthWestern Energy donates $5,000 for tree planting to Missoula Parks and Recreation
Date: Sep 5, 2024
Missoula, Mont. – Sept. 5, 2024 – NorthWestern Energy is donating $5,000 to Missoula Parks and Recreation, in honor of baskets made by participants at our pop-a-shot station during Missoula Under Construction Aug. 17 at Fort Missoula Regional Park.
The donation will support Missoula Parks and Recreation in its vital mission to manage 550 acres of parkland, 22 miles of trails, and thousands of city trees. The donation will support tree planting to replace those lost in the severe windstorm on July 24 and bolster tree education programs.
“We are thrilled to contribute to the beautification of Missoula through tree planting, which will provide shade and enhance recreational spaces,” said NorthWestern Energy Community Relations Manager Todd Rahr. “This donation also supports local businesses by creating job opportunities, benefiting the community's economy.”
In addition, NorthWestern Energy is collaborating with Missoula Parks and Recreation on the Downtown Parks & Trails Implementation Team. This partnership includes a mural project on the downtown substation, celebrating local heritage through indigenous art, as endorsed by the Missoula City Council.
The new $10 million substation in Caras Park will feature prominent public art, aligning with both the Downtown Master Plan and the North Riverside Parks and Trails Plan’s vision for significant art installations in the downtown district.
