Sip & Sample Autumn Stroll Returns to Downtown Kalispell
My Glacier Village, a local nonprofit supporting seniors who are aging in place, invites the community to its annual Sip & Sample Autumn Stroll in downtown Kalispell on Saturday, October 17, from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m.

The Autumn Stroll is a progressive tasting experience where guests enjoy small-plate bites, beer, wine, and cocktails from some of the Flathead Valley's favorite old and new fine dining restaurants, breweries, and iconic eateries.

"What a great way to spend a vibrant fall day-enjoying mouthwatering food, exquisite drinks, and entertaining games and prizes, all while supporting a good cause," said Mary Wallace, event coordinator for My Glacier Village. Wallace added, "This year's theme revolves around Kalispell's colorful past! Glacier Bank is back with their crowd-pleasing Welcome Party to kick off the festivities and the Red Lion After Party will provide the perfect finale to the afternoon. Who can resist two fabulous parties with a Taste of Kalispell and a Taste of History in between!"
