Join us at the Historic Sheridan Inn
Crowds gathered on the front lawn of the Sheridan Inn in the summer of 1893 and watched in awe as the first electric lights in Sheridan flickered on, illuminating the Inn’s 69 gabled windows. The Inn offered adventurous travelers a taste of luxury in the Wild West. Through the years, the Inn has been a hub of activity, offering visitors and locals everything from the town’s first bathtubs to elegant New Year’s Eve balls.
Today, the Inn remains a center of community activity, hosting many public events to entice travelers and entertain locals. Check our calendar often for upcoming events. Who knows? Buffalo Bill might drop in, too.
Series is offered all summer long at Kendrick Park. The park offers facilities for family or solitary activities. The band shell is the location of Concerts in the Park, the summer musical series held every Tuesday. Picnic areas, fishing, horseshoes, a large children’s playground, a swimming pool, tennis courts, a wildlife refuge and wide open space make Kendrick Park a place to enjoy while you are in the Sheridan area.
