Never attended the Miles City Bucking Horse Sale? Always wanted to check out the Sweet Pea Festival in Bozeman? 2024 is your year to check off a visit to the most loved events throughout the state! Go Sail Flathead Lake recommends adding a sailing event to your list too. For example, have you ever been to the Montana Cup Regatta? 

2. Pick Up a Unique Montana Hobby

You are never too old or too young to pick up a new hobby. Montana is home to quite a few unique opportunities that lend themselves well to full-blown hobbies! For example, you can become an expert in the best places to pick huckleberries in Northwest Montana or a legend at unearthing the largest crystals at Crystal Park. With the help of Go Sail Flathead Lake you may be able to even become the next winner of the the Montana Cup Regatta!   

3. Visit A New Montana Town

Even born-and-bred Montanans are often stumped on the locations of certain small Montana towns. In the Flathead Valley alone, there are plenty of lesser known towns that you may never even have heard of, let alone visited. However, many times these towns are hidden gems— full of unique adventures and fun hangouts. For example, Dayton is home to Montana’s only ASA sailing school. Stop by Go Sail Flathead Lake for a sail as you visit a variety of new Montana towns in the Flathead Valley!   

4. Commit to Buying Local

As you make your way through new towns in 2024, stop in at local businesses along your route. Shopping locally is a great New Year’s resolution for all Montanans. It keeps our downtowns vibrant and supports the unique talents our state has cultivated! 

5. Road Trip Across the Entire State

Have you ever traveled from North Dakota to Idaho? How about from Wyoming to Canada? 2024 is the year for you to make the big trip across the Big Sky State! Make sure to plan plenty of stops along the way so you can knock out New Year’s resolution #2 of visiting new Montana towns too! Additionally, if you’re making a Wyoming to Canada trip, you’ll want to make sure your trip itinerary takes you through Dayton. That way you can take a break from driving and enjoy a day out on the water with Go Sail Flathead Lake

6. Start Your Own Montana Tradition

Transform your chosen New Year’s resolutions for Montana adventurers into lifelong traditions! For example, you can choose to sail Flathead Lake with your family every year from here on out or get your friends together to attend the Sweet Pea festival each and every summer. Resolutions turned traditions are the best type of New Year’s resolutions!
