Montecahto Club taking pie orders
News from The Montecahto Club
POLSON – The Montecahto Club is already taking orders for the club’s famous fresh cherry pies, usually sold at Polson’s annual Cherry Festival in July.
Although the Cherry Festival has not been canceled, club members are concerned that it could be due to the coronavirus pandemic. So, they decided to sell cherry pies by orders this year. The annual cherry pie fundraiser is a critical source of revenue for the non-profit service and social club.
Cherry pies may be ordered baked or unbaked. According to club vice president Alice Erb, unbaked pies may be purchased now for $20.
Montecahto members are quick to point out that the club is “not responsible for elusive pits.” To order cherry pies, please call Alice Erb at 406-250-3189.
