Stewarding the Past Public Workshop
Stewarding the Past Public Workshop
Are you interested in history, archaeology, and your local area? This workshop features guest speakers Dr. Lawrence Todd, GRSLE Archaeology and Professor Emeritus from Colorado State University; Joe Danielle, State Historic Preservation Office’s Site Stewardship Program; Michael Stites, Bighorn National Forest Archaeologist; and Kyle Wright, Shoshone National Forest Archaeologist. Participants will learn about the discipline of archaeology, how to responsibly engage with the past on both public and private lands, and more. The workshop begins at 9 am and breaks at noon for lunch. After lunch, participants will take a field trip guided by Kyle Wright to the historic Double Dee Dude Ranch to learn more about stewarding historic sites. While this workshop is free, each participant is encouraged to donate $10 to help ensure future events like this. Participants are also encouraged to pre-register so the Museums can set up the correct number of chairs. Pre-registration can be completed by calling (307) 868-2423.
