The Great Falls Women's Club Philanthropy Group held its annual Bluebells and Eagles Walk at Riverbend Park in early April. Funds raised from ticket sales and donations through their website benefitted the nonprofit organization Friends of Riverbend, Inc. (FORB). The event was a 1.5-mile guided nature walk culminating in a chance to look through the powerful Schmidt-Cassegrain telescope to view resident bald eagles and their three eaglets hatched at the Minnehaha Island nest.
Stephanie Anderson and Hugh Morrow III led the event for children and adults, which raised $2,011. The total donation from the Philanthropy Group of the Women’s Club of Great Falls this club year is $3,536. which includes a Nov. 1, 2022, Renwick Gallery private museum tour and a casual lunch event, which raised $1,525.
