Yellowstone County Beautification Projects
2022-2023
Bright n' Beautiful has planted and maintained hardy perennial gardens at the Airport Hill 'Welcome to Billings' sign bed and near the shelter in the beautiful Shiloh Conservation Area. In 2022, BnB entered into an agreement with the Friends of Canyon Creek, Inc., to join them in keeping the Nez Perce Battlefield marker, pavilion and surrounding grounds clean and tidy in a way that honors the warriors and soldiers who died there during the Battle of Canyon Creek on September 13, 1877. The Canyon Creek Battlefield Site is located at the intersection of Buffalo Trail and Lipp Roads north of Laurel Montana. If you are interested in joining our corps of Canyon Creek volunteer caregivers please contact Bright n' Beautiful at (406) 248-6617 or brightnbeautifulbillings@gmail.com. We welcome your participation!
