Explore History with SCLT and TRVCC in Dayton

Sheridan Community Land Trust and Tongue River Valley Community Center first collaborative Explore History program is coming to the TRVCC in Dayton.  

The Tuesday, February 15, program will begin at 10:30 a.m. at the TRVCC in Dayton. It is titled “History of Water in the Semiarid Southeastern Sheridan County.” 

This Explore History program will be led by SCLT Historical Program Manager Carrie Edinger, who will discuss how the region’s limited water resources have shaped the lives of Plains Indian Tribes and during Western Expansion. Edinger will also dive into Wyoming water history and how irrigation projects in the valley changed agriculture production and once offered German immigrants farming opportunities. 

SCLT Director of Marketing and Development Chris Vrba told listeners a little about the program while appearing on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse program. 

Explore History programs will be held at the Tongue River Valley Community Center in Dayton on the third Tuesday of the month at 10:30 a.m.. These programs are open to the public and free to attend.
