This should be a wonderful reflection for those ofyou that were with us when we discussed the past selection of, Tomboy Bride, by Harriet Fish Backus. Ifyou haven’t read it we suggest you do. It was a hit with the book club membersthat read it and attended the discussion. The Tomboy Bride is a firsthandaccount of mining and living in the Telluride area in the early 1900s.

Mission

The Mission of the Conifer Historical Society and Museum is to share the region's legacy by collecting, preserving and exhibiting historical and cultural materials.

Background Statement

One day, a group of Conifer residents was sitting around the dinner table together and the topic of history came up. "Do you remember who used to live on that house way down on Kuester Road? What about that old Cemetery off Pleasant Park Road? Do you know anything about that?" And so the discussion went, and The Conifer Historical Society and Museum was born. Incorporated in January 2009, we have grown and now call the former Conifer Junction Schoolhouse our home. Our purpose now is to share the region's legacy by collecting, preserving and exhibiting historical and cultural materials and provide public access to services, collections, exhibits and a research library.
