Pavilion Lessee chosen for Summer of 2022!

The MBLCA went through the process of interviewing potential Pavilion candidates. The talent and ideas presented were amazing and the Brush Lake community would have been lucky to have either of the candidates. In an MBLCA special session held on Monday, October 11, the association chose Rose Becker as the future Pavilion vendor through a majority vote. Rose grew up in Butte and graduated in 1999. She worked at the Shore for 3 summers and has also worked at Famous Daves, Old 10 and way back in the day at Houlihans.

Rose is married to Scott Becker and together they have 5 children- Ethan (23), Dylan (20), Seth (18), Tara (6), and Morgan (5). They have 2 dogs Quinn (German Short hair) and Rip (English pointer/Springer). She lives in Bismarck and has worked at Scheels for 2 years and was voted Cashier of the Year for 2020. Rose loves reading, watching historical movies, hunting, cooking, baking, gardening, and working cows. She also loves talking to and meeting new people, but hates public speaking. Rose stated that she is very excited to be able to have another fun summer with the great people at Brush Lake!! As the new lessee, she has presented several great new ideas to the board; we are excited to see her vision come to fruition.
