We would like to honor Ben Steele who is a survivor of the Bataan Death March. After the April 9, 1942 U.S. surrender of the Bataan Peninsula on the main Philippine island of Luzon to the Japanese during World War II (1939-45), approximately 75,000 Filipino and American troops on Bataan were forced to make an arduous 65-mile march to prison camps. The marchers made the trek in intense heat and were subjected to harsh treatment by Japanese guards. Thousands perished in what became known as the Bataan Death March.

When Bonny Perkins started the Sourdough Bagel two

When Bonny Perkins started the Sourdough Bagel two years ago, she wasn’t planning on having a storefront. She took orders in advance from customers and would deliver bagels anywhere in Yellowstone County.

Montana residents claim that it is tough to find a good bagel but that Perkins bagels do not disappoint.
