Colt Anderson’s “Dream Big” Summer kickoff tonight in Uptown Butte

Colt Anderson is nothing less than legendary in the Mining City.  By now, we are familiar with Colt's story.  He was an outstanding player on a winless high school football team who was told he was too small to chase his dream of playing for the Montana Grizzlies.  He was not offered a scholarship but did wind up as a walk-on player.  He turned that opportunity into All-American recognition before his time there was finished and went on to an NFL playing career which included quality time with the Minnesota Vikings, Indianapolis Colts, Buffalo Bills and as Special Teams Captain of the Philadelphia Eagles.  He is now a Special Teams coach with the Cincinatti Bengals who are only a couple of seasons removed from a Super Bowl appearance.  Colt Anderson simply is a winner.

Through his "Dream Big Foundation", Colt Anderson for several summers now has brought world-class athletes, entertainers and leaders to Butte for the Dream Big Montana Experience which will officially begin tonight Uptown with an incredible evening of fun, food and entertainment including freestyle motocross jumps from Keith Sayers and his crew and music from Butte's own Levi Blom and Missoula's Shodown.

From 4 until 6 this afternoon, the "Family Fun Area" will be open in the lot on Galena below the Uptown Parking Garage.  At 6pm, Keith Sayers' FMX Show will blast off on Park Street followed by Levi Blom's show at 6:20.  Sayers' FMX Show #2 will follow at 7:15 and Shodown's first set will fire up at 7:45.  At 8:30 will be Sayers' final FMX Show of the evening and Shodown will close things out at 9:30.
