The Hub and SCLT’s Explore History program to take the Big Goose Walking Tour on Oct. 12

The Hub on Smith and Sheridan Community Land Trust host the next Explore History program – Big Goose Walking Tour on Tuesday, Oct. 12.

According to SCLT, these walking tour sites are in the Historic Downtown Sheridan area and Whitney Commons with a focus on how Big Goose Creek was an essential natural resource for the valley’s early inhabitants, into the settlement era, and right up to today. 

Participants will learn about the Big Goose Creek Buffalo Jump, Sheridan Brewery, Sheridan Manufacturing Company Flour Mill, the Mandel Cabin, and Sheridan’s first cabin, along with the historic rerouting of Big Goose Creek. 

The walking tour is about three quarters of a mile and stops at ten sites. SCLT would like the public to be aware there is little shade on this tour. Participants may consider bringing the following items: hat, water bottle, sunscreen, or shade umbrella. If inclement weather, a virtual tour will be shown in the Hub Café.

SCLT and the HUB on Smith invite the public to take part in the Big Goose Walking Tour on Tuesday, Oct. 12, at The Hub on Smith from 10:30 a.m. to noon. 

Explore History programs are held on the second Tuesday of the month at The Hub on Smith at 10:30 a.m. The Hub invites attendees to join them for lunch after the program’s conclusion.

Explore History has been made possible thanks to the generous support of The NextFifty Initiative.
