OUTPOST DAYS

HOWDY EVERYONE!

OUTPOST DAYS is celebrating 56 years! We are currently planning this year’s event and we hope we can count on your support. Outpost Days is “thee” event that showcases western art and lost art. Join us June 7-8th, for all kinds of Western family fun. We strive to bring the best of the west for the young and the old. The event is geared for hands on learning of the western arts.

We will have gold panning, blacksmithing, Lewis & Clark encampment, fur traders, flint nappers and the world-famous Horny Toad races.

All this starts on Saturday at 8am for a Buckaroo breakfast followed by live entertainment and at Noon the cattle drive led by local 4H kids that will drive cattle right into downtown Murphy! The Snake River Stampede Stagecoach will be on display, both days.

This year we will be cutting the ribbon on the new Owyhee Nugget Print Shop and demonstrating the printing machines.

This is the biggest fundraiser for the Owyhee County Historical Museum and it only happens once a year! The museum will be fully open with free admission into the Murphy School House, AG Annex Building, Marsing Depot and Stamp Mill.

Come spend the day with the family and enjoy the old west the right way here at the Owyhee County Museum.
