Each September at our Annual Dinner & Auction the Cowboy Museum honors an individual or family who has been involved in our local western history. These people have demonstrated through their daily lives the passion for ranching or rodeo and have made a contribution to our western traditions and heritage. If you would like to submit a nomination for this year, please complete the nomination form at the link below. All nominees are reviewed and voted upon by the Cowboy Museum’s Board of Directors. Nominations are due by February 14, 2015.
