Reese Creek, Montana: Rebuilding Community Through Restoration

Fifteen miles north of Bozeman and ten miles north of Belgrade sits the historic farming and ranching community of Reese Creek. The one-room schoolhouse used to be a community center until it shut down in the 1960s. Now, residents of Reese Creek are looking to restore this building to make it a community hub once again.

“I carry on the tradition that my dad was involved in as part of the first restoration project back in the nineties,” says Dana Doney, president of the Reese Creek Community Board.
