DUBOIS, WY A TOP 10 WESTERN TOWN IN 2010!!!
Dubois Main Street and the Dubois Museum nominated Dubois for True West Magazine's annual Top Ten True Western Towns Award. Dubois,WY garnered the Number 4 position.

"Dubois is one of those places that's escaped the ravages of time," says True West Executive Editor Bob Boze Bell." That's no accident. It takes a lot of determination by local folks to keep their heritage intact. They are most deserving of recogntion."

True West editors determine winners for this annual award based on criteria demonstrating how each town has preserved its history through old buildings, museums and other institutions, events, and promotions of historic resources.

"The word is getting around. For a True Western town surrounded by wildlife and one that embraces its heritage, look no further than Dubois". Read more...
