I keep finding horrible message painted on features along trails around Helena. Please help me end this.

The messages I found today on Scratch Gravel at the John G Mine trailhead said "kill [name of political group] scum"

Please help me clean these up. I took a rock and scratched away the paint.

I am 100% opposed to the political group named on the rock, but I can't stand the graffiti on our beautiful trails. Please clean these messages even if you agree with them.

Hate speech is not acceptable.

Good conversation, good vibes, and good people! Goes until 1pm today!

Halloween is on Saturday this year, so I wondered if Helena is gonna make a weekend of it :)

If you know of any cool stuff happening, drop it in the comments!

Hi Helena! Just a quick reminder that I’m hosting my clothing sale tomorrow, Saturday, October 17, from 11 AM–3 PM!
I’ve spent the week getting everything ready and have a large selection of clothing from Anthropologie, Free People, Urban Outfitters, Madewell, and more!
There will be a huge selection of dresses, along with tops, denim, sweaters, jackets, accessories, and some fun statement pieces! Many items are in excellent condition or have barely been worn.
Prices vary by brand and item, with lots of great finds for well below retail. Everything is organized and ready to shop!
📍 Location: Helena’s South Hills neighborhood
Saturday, October 17 | 11 AM–3 PM
Hope to see you tomorrow! 💕

Hi all -

Just wanted to drop in quickly and mention a film I produced that starts TOMORROW at the Myrna Loy, where I have not been but seems like an absolutely gorgeous theater.

That film is THE SCOUT, written and directed by Paula González-Nasser, and is a slice-of-life sorta tale about a young woman working as TV location scout in New York. Location scouting is a job that Paula did for many years - you can read a bit about her experiences and the reasons why she made the film in The New York Times, on NPR, or YouTube.

This is a very small film without much of a marketing budget to speak of, so I figure this is the best way to let y'all know it's playing if it seems of interest to you and you'd like to check it out!

Plays thrice daily through the weekend, and it's 90 minutes.

A New York Times Critic's Pick! Tribeca Film Festival 2025 selection!

THANKS TO THE MYRNA LOY FOR HAVING US!

Best places in the area for trick or treating?

Just posting to see if there is any chance anyone knows of any places hiring in Helena for some type of wfh position with a flexible schedule... I have baby #2 coming and I'm hoping to be able to avoid daycare but still need to be able to work. I have support to work in person in the afternoons and occasionally during the day, and I could definitely wfh at night. I'm thinking something to do with data entry or medical coding (I do have some training for coding), but I'm really flexible for just about anything. I know jobs like this are hard to come by but I figured it never hurts to look around!

Lots of new donated books in the LittleFreeLibrary on red letter Street. Thank you to all the folks who have been sharing their books with others through the LittleFreeLibrary.

where can we get some moving boxes?

I’m currently a graphic/web designer in healthcare marketing, but I’m hoping to branch out a bit and expand my portfolio!

I’d love to connect with some local Helena businesses that might need a little help with their branding, graphic design, websites, social media, etc. I’m especially interested in businesses that may be relying on AI-generated designs or just haven’t had the time or resources to invest in professional design work.

My hope is to offer my services at a discounted rate, or even for free, in exchange for being able to use the finished work in my portfolio. I have experience and references, and I’m planning to put together a few packages to make things easier!

Mostly just wanted to put some feelers out there and see if anyone has any recommendations, leads, or knows of a local business that could use a hand. I’d love to work with some more creative industries and support local businesses in the process!

Does anyone know of any CPA’s in Helena that are accepting new clients?

I am a 46 woman looking to rent a room/basement etc. I have excellent rental references and good credit. Can provide more information about my lifestyle, work,etc if someone has a serious offer.

Great comedian tomorrow at the Helena Avenue Theater!

We are visiting friends and want to bring pizza to their house for lunch. Please provide some suggestions folks!

Just remember to slow down today and remember that we all want to see you around again. It's wet out, but that could change in a heartbeat. Have a safe day everyone! :)

That is all. Carry on.

Hey friends, this is my first winter inhelena and I just wanted to be sure I'm not missing anything. Before this snow came I looked at the city website to see if there were any parking requirements for snow removal but they haven't posted anything yet for this year. I have lived in other places where the city required you to park on alternating sides of the street so the plows could get through and I was wondering if Helena had any requirements like that.

Drop your opinions in the comments, I wanna hear 'em.

Any recommendations for flying out of Helena or other MT airports to Amsterdam? First overseas flight for wife and I in March? TIA

The snow is hours away..run far away back to where you came from!
