Story Time Strikes Again!
PRESERVING OUR PAST FOR THE FUTURE TWIN BRIDGES MUSEUM The Twin Bridges Museum is the Ruby Valley’s historic treasure chest, preserving and displaying photos, papers and marvelous artifacts from families all over the Ruby Valley. It also draws tourists to our area throughout the summer, gives travelers another reason to stop in the Ruby Valley and provides information for additional stops in Sheridan, Silver Star and Alder. Staffed entirely by volunteers, the Twin Bridges Museum is operated on charitable funds and donations are welcome. Open from 1pm to 5pm, seven days a week from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. The Museum is also open during the Twin Bridges Christmas Stroll. Special off-season tours of the Museum can be arranged by appointment with Director Joy Day (406-684-5701).
UPDATE 2012: The Twin Bridges Historical Association which manages the Museum is asking for tax deductible donations from the community to replace the old windows in the Reid Building. For additional information please contact Joy Day at 684-5264 or 684-5669. R.L. Winston Rod Fly Fishing Museum
If you stop by the last building on the right hand side of the road in Twin Bridges headed towards Sheridan, you'll have the opportunity to see a lifetime of fishing. Take a break from the river to stop by the world famous rod building facility and gaze at the long standing history of the R.L. Winston Rod Company and the fly rod. You'll find yourself amazed at the 80 years of company history and the innovations in fly rods. NEVADA CITY MUSEUM, NEVADA CITY, MONTANA
