Sometimes life makes no sense especially when someone you know and love loses theirs. This week, Butte lost a musician, a friend and a brother when Gary Robinson passed away suddenly.

Tomorrow's Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Butte's "Rhythm and Brews" Festival is going to be a good one. Things get underway at the Original Mineyard with the car show with registration at 10am. Gates open at noon with food trucks, beverages, kids' activities and lots of fun. Music will fire up at 1pm on the big stage. Let's take a look at this year's performers.

Another big event is returning this summer to the Original Mineyard. It's the annual Rhythm and Brews festival and it's one day your family should definitely mark on your calendar. Rhythm and Brews is put on each August by Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Butte and is one of their primary fundraisers. This year it will be taking place on Saturday, August 19. It features some of the finest local craft beer our town has to offer along with a large selection of domestic beer for you to enjoy while you check out the many cars, trucks and bikes on display in a huge car show. Again, this year there will be live music, a children's area, food trucks and a great day for the entire family.
