City Club Missoula Information

Mission

The mission of City Club Missoula is “to inform and inspire citizens on issues vital to the Missoula area Community through public forums that encourage new ideas and a free exchange of thought.” City Club’s monthly forums bring diverse people together on a wide range of topics that affect the community and its well-being. Informative speakers are invited and audience discussion and question and answer periods are included with each forum.

Many communities across the United States host City Clubs; some have been in existence for many years. The goal of City Club Missoula is to foster communication, discourse and creative thought within our community. The slogans used by some existing City Clubs will give you a sense of what City Clubs are all about.
