The Meaderville Volunteer Fire Department began building their Christmas displays in 1945 as a holiday greeting to lift the community’s spirits following World War II. The displays were made up to 1960. In 2003, the Montana History Club recreated a display at the Anselmo Mine. The club has installed one every year since, moving to the Race Track Fire Hall in 2006.

Please join us to learn more about these wonderful displays. Remember to bring your holiday cheer!
