Good morning, Helena.

Today, Lewis and Clark County announced that Helena buildings will be lit with green bulbs as part of Operation Green Light to honor veterans before Veterans Day.

The initiative runs through November 11 and invites residents, businesses, and community organizations to replace one light bulb with a green one — a simple act showing support for veterans transitioning back to civilian life.

The Montana Special Olympics basketball tournament will begin on Thursday with an opening ceremony at 6 p.m. at the Lewis and Clark County Fairgrounds Exhibition Hall where athletes parade & the Flame of Hope is lit.
