A light rain on Saturday May 18th 2002 did not dampen the enthusiasm of the 50 participants in this year’s Annual Sidewalk Art Event in Bigfork, sponsored by Flathead Bank. First (Best), second (Great), and third (Good) place winners were selected in several categories, but everyone who entered, as well as the staff of Flathead Bank for organizing this event, should be congratulated.
