Profile
Preserving our past for the future. The purpose of this organization is to serve as the steward of the White River Museum, and its holdings., to protest and preserve the artifacts, antiquities, and properties donated to the museum and to use them to educate the people of this world about the people who lived here. The museum itself was built in 1880 along with the building next door, the Garrison, and three other buildings were built after the last Ute War in 1879. Two of the 5 buildings now serve as the White River Museum and Garrison. Items in the collection are dated from 1800 forward. We also maintain an archive building, The Milk Creek Battlefield Memorial Park, and the restored Coal Creek School House. We have around 5,000 guests a year and create some economic growth for the community with 35 registered historic buildings, tours, re-enactments and heritage trade classes.
