Non-profit organization to honor Montana's western heritage
The Montana Cowboy Hall of Fame is a 501(c)(3) hall of fame organization. Its stated goal is to ""To honor our cowboy way of life, American Indian cultures, and our collective Montana western heritage.[1] It confers the honour of induction on an annual list of distinguished individuals.[2] At present, the organization lacks a permanent physical museum, but was granted statutory recognition by the Montana State Legislature in 2003 and 2011.[3] Fundraising efforts include a specialty car license plate,[4] The hall of fame was granted US$0.5 million in state funds for site development and project planning during a 2007 special session of the legislature.[5][6][7]
A previous proposal was to be located in Wolf Point, Montana, as designated by the State of Montana in 2003.[8] But the Big Timber location was selected in part due to its proximity to Interstate 90, proximity to other tourist destinations such as Yellowstone National Park and lower construction costs.[7]
