GREAT FALLS â Visitors in and out of Great Falls International Airport can learn more about one of Americaâs most famous expeditions.
On Monday, the ribbon was cut on the Lewis & Clark Foundationâs Discovery display. The exhibit, located adjacent to gates 2 and 3, highlights some of the challenges the Corps of Discovery faced during its time in the Great Falls area in the summer of 1805.
âAs people get off the plane, it s one of the first things theyâll see, one of the first impressions of the Great Falls community,â said Jay Russell, director of the Lewis & Clark Foundation. âTheyâll get to see our Lewis and Clark history and appreciate that and understand that. We hope it will point them to the interpretive center as well.â
