The Museum of the Mountain Man held their 26th Annual Wreath and Chocolate Auction on Friday, December 6th in the Lovatt Room of the Pinedale Library. Community members donated 42 beautiful hand-made wreaths and holiday arrangements for the live auction, along with a variety of chocolate delights for the silent auction.

The Fan Favorite People’s Choice was a beautiful wreath made by Julie Early. The wreath that brought in the most money was one made by Karen Olsen on behalf of Sam Drucker, a long-time member of the historical society who passed away last month from cancer. That wreath sold for $1,750. Food for the event was generously sponsored by First Bank. All money raised goes to support educational programs at the Museum in 2020.

The Museum is closed for the 2019 regular season, but they will have some special open days for the holidays. They will be open Tuesday, December 10th, Thursday, December 12th, Tuesday, December 17, and Thursday, December 19th for visits to the Museum and the gift shop. Members of the Sublette County Historical Society get in for free. Special visits can also be arranged for other times by appointment by calling 307-367-4101.The online gift shop on their website is open all the time for orders. The Museum is run by the Sublette County Historical Society, a non-profit organization.
