The Rock Creek State Bank is an old building located on Main Street in Joliet, Montana. It's a special place because it was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. This means it's an important building with a lot of history that should be protected.

History of the Building

This historic building was first built between 1906 and 1907. It was designed to be a bank. The bank was called the Joliet Bank, and it started its business in 1904.

From Bank to Lodge Hall

For many years, the building served as a bank. People would come here to save their money or get loans. But over time, its purpose changed. By 1985, the building was no longer a bank. Instead, it became a meeting place for a group called the Rebekah Lodge. A lodge hall is like a club house where members can gather for meetings and events.
