ITEM 8.01.  OTHER EVENTS.
On September 28, 2011, the Board of Directors of Glacier Bancorp, Inc. (the "Company") adopted a Majority Voting Policy, consistent with recent trends in good corporate governance practices.
Under the Majority Voting Policy, director nominees will tender conditional resignations at the time of their nomination, and, if any director nominee receives more "withheld" votes than "for" votes in an uncontested election of directors, his or her resignation will be considered by the Company's Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee and the Board of Directors.  The Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee would then recommend whether to accept the resignation, and the Board of Directors would make a determination within 90 days after certification of the shareholder vote.  The Board of Directors would then promptly disclose its decision and rationale.  In a contested election, the Majority Voting Policy would not apply and nominees would be elected by plurality voting.  The Majority Voting Policy is effective upon adoption and will apply to the Company's 2012 election of directors.  The Company intends to post the Majority Voting Policy on its website at

On September 29, 2011, the Company issued a press release regarding adoption of the Majority Voting Policy, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.
