Before there was Borries, there was a job that brought our family to Black Eagle. ❤️
Borrie Grasseschi came here to work at the old smokestack. Little did he know, that move would become the beginning of a family story still being written four generations later.
We shared a little of that history last year, and we loved reading your memories. Photos like this remind us how connected our story is to the stories of so many families in this community.
Since 1938, we’ve been proud to call Black Eagle home. Through all the changes, we’re still here—serving meals, carrying on family traditions, and welcoming generations of yours.
What do you remember about the Big Stack? Did someone in your family work at the smelter? Share your stories or old photos in the comments. We’d love to hear a piece of your history, too.
