This monument is dedicated to the men and women of Montana, past and present.
The Centennial Cattle Drive originated in Roundup Montana September 4, 1989 with cattle herds numbering several thousand and riders from every corner of the state and beyond. It concluded September 9, 1989, near the Yellowstone River.
The creation of this monument was made possible by the financing and marketing efforts of O'Jay Vanegas, President of Montana Fine Arts, Inc. and all those who supported this project through the purchase of bronze replicas.
On September 9, 1989, the Great Montana Centennial Cattle Drive Monument was donated by Montana Fine Arts, Inc. to Latigo Corporation who then placed it in the city of Billings.
