Our newest edition is the East Entrance Improvements to our building along with new flooring upstairs in the wax museum and paint to the west exterior. These upgrades were due to the help of Mariah and CFAB Grant monies. The great vision of our founder, Mr. Laurence Stanton, lives on! One of the founder's dreams, is the installation of a one-room schoolhouse to be restored to interpret 19th century school life in Kansas. The restoration will include static and interactive displays in the school house to create hands-on learning experiences for visitors who want to learn about the school life of yesteryear. See the "School House Project" page on this website to learn more. For alternative hotels in Dodge City, visit HotelsCombined |
