The new Western Heritage Center in Prescott is a unique collaboration of more than 25 organizations, including museums, historical societies and other related organizations that promote Arizona's western heritage. Independent exhibits featuring the Rough Riders, ranching, railroad, film history, mining, and more will also be included, enhancing the Center's attraction. The Western Heritage Center, located across from the Courthouse Plaza on Montezuma Street, will engage with its visitors, educating and bringing to life the area's rich heritage and history. Later this year, interactive touch screens will encourage visitors to learn more about each organization's history and mission, while also offering directions to their locations.

The National Audubon Society designates third Important Bird Area (IBA) in Camp Verde
The Arizona office of the National Audubon Society science review team approved a third Camp Verde Important Bird Area (IBA). The IBA designation acknowledges the biodiversity of the area and the value it has to bird conservation. The recognized area includes the 17-mile corridor of the Verde River, plus West Clear Creek and Wet Beaver Creek, within the corporate boundary of Camp Verde. The Verde River's vast watershed is habitat for one of the largest concentrations of resident and migratory birdlife anywhere in the Southwest. This new area brings a total of six IBAs to Yavapai County.
