This will be a really neat event with some of our museum partners! Check it out!

It's time to install the wayside for Utah's newest trail the Buffalo Soldiers Heritage Trail at historic Fort Douglas.

WHAT is a "wayside"? It is a sign with explanation about the historic significance of a spot or area. In this case relative to Utah's Black history, Fort Douglas is one of the sites where Buffalo Soldiers were stationed as well as where they worked. The 24th Infantry of the United States Colored Troops (aka the Buffalo Soldiers) were stationed there, arriving in October 1896, 130 years ago this year.

Join us for this celebratory event. See attached for information.
