You are cordially invited to join Sapphira Temple No. 79, Daughters of the Nile, for three days of western Nile and Shrine hospitality in the gorgeous adventureland we call Montana.
North West Daze will be celebrated this summer in the capitol city of Helena, Montana, August 21-23, 2014, and we encourage you to put on your boots and join in on the fun.
Planned events include tours, an opportunity to enjoy a wagon ride dinner at the Last Chance Ranch, a combined Nile/Shrine parade, mixers and ceremonials.
- Watch for big horn sheep and bald eagles while gently motoring the
Missouri River in country that still looks much like it did for explorers Lewis
and Clark.
- Ride the Tour Train and learn about the lure of gold and the miners who
struck it rich in Last Chance Gulch.
- Escape the cities and savor the relaxed pace of Montana-style hospitality.
- Breathe the fresh air of uncrowded mountains.
- Re-establish Nile friendships under the Big Sky.
