Nominations needed for Cowboy Hall of Fame

The Wyoming Cowboy Hall of Fame (WCHF) has honored five classes to date, and the next will be inducted in September, 2019. Nominations for that class are now open, but will close February 28, 2019.

Our “Cowboy State” is proud of that designation, and WCHF is excited and eager to honor and preserve the history of each worthy man and woman. Both living and deceased cowboys and cowgirls may be nominated.

A frequently asked question is, “Why hasn’t this person been inducted into WCHF?” The most likely answer is, “They’ve never been nominated.” The WCHF board of directors can only consider individuals who have been correctly nominated.

Clear instructions are outlined at the WCHF website, and photos can be submitted along with each nomination. Please give thought to the most worthy individuals within your family, among your neighbors, anywhere in your acquaintance, and go to http://www.wyomingcowboyhalloffame.com/nomination/

If you need assistance with a nomination, please contact a committee or board member near you. They are listed at http://www.wyomingcowboyhalloffame.com. Please act promptly, that deadline is drawing near.
