Western Montana Returned   Peace Corps Volunteers

 WELCOME!!

Welcome to the Western Montana Returned Peace Corps Volunteer's website.  The website is new and under construction, so please be patient.  We hope to use  this  site to help our members and other members of the Returned Peace Corps community become and stay better connected.  You can find out what we are up to and find links to other sites for RPCV communities as well as the NPCA website www.rpcv.org

At this time I would like to extend an invitation to all of our members to offer input in the design and content of this site. I am putting it together, but would love to have some input. You can reach me at wmrpcv@yahoo.com  or use the contact us form on the Contact/Join Us page.  Thanks.  Dennis C. Bangs.

 Goat Chasers, 2007 

 WHO WE ARE: 

     We are an NPCA affiliated group representing all of Montana.  The majority of our members come from Missoula and the surrounding area, but we have members from all over the state and substantial numbers in Bozeman, Helena, Kalispell and Great Falls. 

     The group in Missoula meets once a month for potlucks and general meetings.  We also have a close relationship with the Peace Corps Recruiter on the U of M campus.  We help out with information tables and discussions with prospective volunteers as well as host a potluck in the spring for the newly nominated volunteers. The NOM party.  Members of our group also host an annual Halloween party and a Christmas party, which have become somewhat of a tradition.

     The Bozeman group meets regularly also and is growing constantly and doing local fundraising events as well as participating in the larger WMRPCV fundraising event which is the selling of the Wisconsin Group's International calendars.

    Everyone from throughout the State gathers for the annual meeting and "Goat Chase Retreat" on the shore of Flathead Lake, the second weekend of June.

Goat Chase!!!

Every year on the second weekend of June we combine our annual meeting with a great weekend of boating, eating, dancing and sharing stories at The Flathead Lake United Methodist Church Camp on the shores of Flathead Lake.
