John Q. Adams Milwaukee Railroad Park

Coming this July 2nd!

Come help celebrate America’s 250th birthday with us! The Three Forks Chamber will be hosting a community “potluck” BBQ featuring a patriotic red, white & blue pie contest! We will provide free hot dogs, and are asking businesses and the general public to sponsor a side dish (but these must be made in a commercial kitchen or store-bought).

Bring your appetite, your hometown spirit, and your best pie recipe for a fun-filled evening of community celebration. Pie contest categories will include Kids’, Adult, and Open Class divisions, so bakers of all ages are encouraged to join the fun!

Enjoy:
  • Red, White & Blue Pie Contest
  • Live Music
  • Community Potluck BBQ
  • Farmer’s Market Festivities
  • Free American Flags Available While Supplies Last

This celebration will be held in conjunction with the Farmer’s Market, so come on down for a full evening of Fourth of July fun, food, music, and hometown pride!

Bring your family, friends, lawn chairs, and patriotic spirit as we celebrate 250 years of America together! ????

Location: Mt-Hwy 2/Main Street, Between Cottonwood And S. Montana Streets

Named for the founder of the City of Three Forks, this park houses the old Trident Depot building.  The Three Forks Historical Society saved the depot when Montana Rail Link dissolved the old Trident station.  It was an original icon in the former town of Trident (which is now all gone) which was more like what we would call a neighborhood today, but was in fact a town filled with people, most of whom were employed by the Ideal Cement Company.

This park offers a large grassy area, shaded with spruce trees, picnic benches and is home to the Three Forks Chamber of Commerce’s Visitors’ Center caboose.  This park also plays host to the summer Farmer’s Market.  The Historical Society has relaid train tracks and added an old steam engine within the park to give the user a real sense of the history of Three Forks as a railroad town.

The Depot houses more of the Historical Society’s museum artifacts.

Reservation is required for events like the Farmer’s Market, which is throughout summer every Thursday night from  4-7PM - please plan accordingly.
