Prescott Corral — Preserving the History and Culture of the American West

We are a chapter of Westerners International dedicated to historical research, education, and community fellowship. Join us for events, publications, and opportunities to connect with Western heritage.

Upcoming November Meeting

The next regular meeting of the Prescott Corral of Westerners is set for Thursday, November 5, 2026, at the Marlin D. Kuykendall Centennial Center (formerly known as the Prescott Centennial Center) at 1989 Clubhouse Dr. near the Prescott airport.

Featured at our November meeting will be Stuart Rosebrook, Ph.D., Executive Director and Acting Curator at the Sharlot Hall Museum, speaking on the topic “Local History Matters.” As a well-known historian, author, editor and public speaker, Stuart believes that history is more than dates, prominent figures and distant battles — rather, history includes the stories, locations, artifacts, events and memories that make our local areas (and even our family backgrounds) as essential to the historical record as any past U.S. President or famous monument.

In addition, Stuart will be presenting the annual Sharlot Hall Award. This award is given each year to a living Arizona woman in recognition of her valuable contributions to the understanding and awareness of Arizona and its history. Named in honor of the first woman to hold public office in the territory and namesake of the Sharlot Hall Museum, the Sharlot Hall Award recognizes our collective passion for preserving and promoting the history and heritage of Arizona.

Note that reservations must be mailed by Tuesday, October 27, in order to ensure seats at the dinner. Doors open at 5:00 p.m. A reservation slip and instructions can be found in the November Roundup newsletter, which can be downloaded from the link at the top of this page. If you have any questions about the program, please contact Sheriff Ken Hoyle at (970) 560-9965.
