100 years for community bank
RONAN — Debby Olsson McClenahan remembers the Ronan Pioneer Days community barbecues of her youth as being “a big deal.” While the event has faded away in recent years, when Montana Secretary of State, Linda McCulloch’s office, notified Olsson McClenahan and the Board of Directors at Community Bank that they’d won a Centennial Award, everyone decided it was a perfect occasion to breathe life into the barbecue once again.
