BOZEMAN — The No Kings protest is set to return to downtown Bozeman this Saturday, with organizers expecting thousands to attend.
The rally will take place from 12 p.m. to 1 p.m. on Main Street, between Rouse Avenue and Willson Avenue.
Chief of Police Jim Veltkamp said the Bozeman Police have been preparing to ensure public safety while supporting those who attend.
“Our goal is always to keep a peaceful event,” said Veltkamp. “We want to ensure we create an environment and create a place where people can express their opinions.”
He added that the Bozeman Police is planning to maintain a visible presence on Saturday.
“We put together a plan where we are present. Hopefully, we’re not over-responding or under-responding, and we’re also prepared for anything that might happen,” he said.
